monday – The Stylish Equestrian

Monday motivation

May 1, 2017 by rachelreunis, posted in SPRING

Mondays can be really hard, especially if you’ve had a great weekend filled with family, fun and horses. Combine a bit of sleek grey and black sophistication with a bright pop of bright Magenta for a great way to start the week.

The Cavallo Calea grip breeches are bright and brilliant and go wonderfully with a Maje Toronto floral print shirt worn underneath a Uniqlo steel grey quilted light weight bomber jacket.

Add a pair of great grey Uvex Sport style gloves and enhance your look with a classic KEP Italia helmet. Steel the show with a pair of Glenchecker custom boots by Unicorn Exceptional.

Add on a few more pops of magenta with this cute Banana Republic scarf and the retro Casio G-shock watch, and bring your phone and keys with you on your ride with a Gucci classic logo belt bag,

What you wear to ride (or work), can really boost your Monday motivation and set you up for a great week.

Have a stylish ride!

Monday flow

Monday flow Monday’s are not easy, and getting back into the flow can sometimes be a bit challenging, so here’s a #rootd that’ll get you back into the weekly swing of things.

If you are anything like me, then you’ll also have the slight issue of equestrian style tight hips. That’s why I regularly go to yoga classes to not only help loosen up the joints, but also put me in a calm state of mind to juggle life, business and barn.

I’m loving the way the ‘athleisure’ trend has crossed over into the equestrian world and how more and more band are bringing us multifunctional and super comfortable riding breeches that work just fine as yoga and or lounge wear. The Horze Leah UV Pro summer breeches in this beautiful shade of mauve are a perfect example. Wear it with a crisp white Vince tank top over a PINK Victoria’s Secret Ultimate cage front sports bra and under a comfortable PrAna Daniele sweater. Switch from Yoga mat to horse with a pair of extremely comfortable and sporty Alberto Fasciani style 103 showjumping boots and of course protect your head in style with a velvet finish custom KEP Italia helmet.

Bring all you yoga and barn essentials with you in the Stella McCartney x ADIDAS sports bag and don’t forget to accessorise your look with a matching Mala necklace. This one is called ‘Intuition’ and is hand made especially for you by Malatopia in Switzerland.

Go with the Monday flow and have a stylish ride!

Tropical blue

Who else is in the mood for a pop of bright blue and a hint of tropical goodness? I am!

I saw this magnificent equestrian print tote bag from Ronner design at the SPOGA trade fair this February and absolutely fell in love with it. It’s from their Tropical collection and is not only the inspiration for this tropical blue look, but also the perfect cross over accessory between equestrian functionality and exquisite tropical style.

Wear you tropical tote with a pair of classy dark blue Pikeur Lugana soft-shell breeches, a soft cream colored Hartley roll neck sweater by HV Polo and a bright blue City jacket by Asmar Equestrian.

Accessorise the tropical blue look with a customised KEP Italia dark navy blue promo T helmet, a pair of Roeckl winter gloves, a Prada Daino pebbled leather belt and a Balenciaga printed silk scarf. Keep all the small bits and coins together in your tropical tote bag with the bright blue Stella McCartney Falabella purse and finish off the look with a pair of cognac colored Cavallo Polo Novellus boots.

Have a stylish ride!
