Oregon Equestrian Style In Your Home

By Maria Jones


The high humidity and heat of summer in the show ring can leave you looking wilted and performing less than your best. Instead of the crisp, fresh, elegant look, you were striving for, you and your horse can lose that winning edge. The right Oregon equestrian riding apparel makes all the difference in how well you ride and how good you look in the show ring.

The horsey look could be directly inspired from the "riding coat" look, i. E., the riding coat worn with white jodhpurs. Therefore, instead of jodhpurs, white shaped trousers or pants could be used. Since we are taking inspiration from the equine look, white shaped trousers are not the only choice. Perhaps black or grey too, maybe a specific charcoal grey are suitable colors.

Maybe a red hue too is a choice too for shaped trousers. What is meant by shaped relates to the way jodhpurs are structured with proper fabric and shape. Here the equine inspired look is only being influenced by the shape of the jodhpurs/breeches, and one doesn't have to have jodhpurs.

Once furniture location has been decided upon, anchor the space with a good rug. Vintage rugs sheltered fine wood floors from numerous hounds, muddy hunting boots, and country parties. The rugs were handmade and vegetable dyed. Today's production rugs lack some of the characters of the older rugs, but can still lend the style and are always a smart choice to bring a space together.

In some way, to create the equestrian look, one can focus on that hip-length riding coat or a coat that is styled like the riding coat as well as tight shaped pants. The fabric is important for the pants/trousers, perhaps at will. The main thing re: pants is the shaping to look like jodhpurs and to get this perhaps cuffs are suitable as well as the full shaping around the waist to crotch to hip.

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.

It is always a good idea to protect your equine riding apparel before entering the ring. One big horse sneeze and your immaculate presentation may look more like a barn brawl. Baggy T-shirts pulled over the top of everything can save you frantic moments of stress and grief just before entering the show ring.

Remember too for a certain equine look red cropped pants are an idea. This can create an exotic type of horsy look. Thus one has red cropped pants and a short black jacket, i. E., waist length with an inside shirt. Maybe a black t-shirt is suitable. Thus black t-shirt, jacket, and red cropped pants. If one wants to use plaid or tartan, one can perhaps create an equine look too.
