Riding Outfits for Spring

Especially in Canada and the northern United States, spring is a time of mud, horse hair everywhere and that really awkward temperature in between warm and cold. With the constant temperature mood swings (especially here is southern Ontario) it can get hard to find something to wear to the barn that looks good, but is warm as well! Here are a few of my favourite outfit ideas for this tricky time of year, since who says Spring jackets and layering has to be colourless and frumpy?! Definitely not me. Of course all of these outfits would be paired with my Treadstep Donatello Field Boots, GPA Speed Air Evolution helmet and my Roeckl Chester gloves. 

This combination has to be one of my favourite and most used styles for riding and daily life. I love a good puffer vest over top a sweater or button down shirt (or both!). It is such a simple, put together look that takes almost no thinking whatsoever; it looks great with a pair of breeches, or some dark wash skinny jeans if you aren't heading out to ride. Vests are great when it's just a bit too hot for a full jacket, so when you get too warm it's east to pull right off! The pink vest adds a great pop of colour for spring, while the sweater remains a classic grey but with a fun twist of while polka dots!

This next outfit is a bit more simple, but still remains super fun with a pop of bright colour. With the usual tan breeches I added a fun light blue patterned belt, it has a mix of blues, pinks and greens which makes it perfect for spring. Keeping on the idea of bright colours, I chose a bright green polo shirt from US Polo Assn. The colour is so cute and fun, and the large polo pony logo on the front adds just that little extra.

For this look I decided to put the colour into the breeches (you have no idea how many compliments I've gotten on these things), along with that a thick quilted belt in a gorgeous grey/ purple colour. On top it's kept simple again with a staple grey v- neck sweater and a quarter zip fleece to throw on top incase it starts to get cold!
