Enhancing Your Oregon Equestrian Look

By Maria Jones


Your love for horses doesn't need to stop at the barn. Fanatics enjoy having decorative horse elements in the home. As a lifelong equine, an admirer of horse sport or someone who loves the equine look, having equine style in your home adds character and tradition. How you bring Oregon equestrian elements together can make the difference in telling a story or having your items overlooked.

Of course, looking and feeling your best doesn't start in the show ring. As athletes, you and your horse must train regularly, stay hydrated and eat properly. Assuming you have done all of the necessary homework, it is then up to you to acquire the proper equine riding apparel to ensure that you and your horse leave the ring as winners.

The components of classic equine show clothes can vary somewhat, according to your riding specialty. Hunt seat is slightly more casual than dressage, but both require elegance and classiness about them that expresses the cool, calm confidence the judges are looking for in the show ring. Regardless of the brand of your show shirt or show jacket, be sure that they are clean and neatly pressed.

In describing this look, it is worthwhile to look at coats/jackets to create the look, and remember the pea jacket; the navy jacket look too, as well as the actual riding coat look with a conservative lapel and collar going to hip length. In being inspired by this look, the black riding jacket can perhaps go to waist length, but if one has chosen to wear a skirt/long skirt and one wants to get the horsy look, then a jacket like the established hip-length riding coat is welcome.

Equines love art, and art that includes the horse is always a favorite. Some equine artists have stood out through the years, with George Stubbs being immensely popular during England's sporting days. His works are traditional, beautiful, and have color schemes that are easy with which to work. Reproductions of his paintings are available on the internet.

Neatness, cleanliness, style, and decorum are all important aspects of the way you present yourself in the show ring. Be sure to bring extras of your equine show clothes, just in case something becomes dirty or torn. Being presented adds to your mood, tone and motivation during this sporting activity.

To add comfort and softness to your space, maintain the style, consider adding needlepoint or horse themed equine pillows. The throw pillows come in numerous colors and styles. Look for traditional fabrics and authentic embellishments like harness brasses, fox hunt buttons, or other pieces of horse equipment.

There are many online equine riding apparel providers to choose from. To ensure that you receive the best service possible while shopping for your equine show clothes, look for interactive and informational services, extensive search and delivery options, easy to read sizing charts and products made with high-quality materials and expert craftsmanship.
