Theme Decor : Equestrian design Ideas!!

This post is about Equestrian themed decor inspiration. Horses are such regal animals and a favorite of so many! All of us have either been horse lovers at some point in our life or know someone with fondness for the amazing stallions. Horse themed decor is absolutely evergreen and favourite with kids as well as grown ups. I can think of two major themes that would include horses at its center. 'Equestrian hi-lif'e and the amazing unique appeal of the 'wild west' and everything in between.

Equestrian hi-life could be glamorous, stylish and very city chic and on the other end the Wild western would have the rustic appeal, elegance and simple endearing feel. And then there is all the ways you can design to fall in between. :)

This room will be a little girl's paradise!! The horse show ribbons add colorful touch to the young rider's room. Distinct pink and black with pretty flashes of color. I adore the white barn door, and quirky way the saddle is displayed!

Ralph Lauren rocks Polo!! The color combination so pretty and unique. The silver, brass, green and the punch of yellow and red makes it so irresistible. How very chic and glamorous. Pick an idea or two for your own home. I would pick the yellow roses in a trophy for my home.

Elle Decor never fails to inspire me. This is such a beautiful room. Not one for horns but for someone who has inherited some it is a classy way to display. The black and white combination with lovely wooden grains all evoke cowboy lifestyle. Very masculine and impeccably stylish!

The vintage collection of horse themed accents makes this living room such an interesting space. The neutral colors and sepia shade helps relax the eyes in this artifact filled room. Very earthy and pleasant.

This horse themed bedding is perfect for a teen room. If you have a young one who is fond of horse this is a great way to include their passion without redoing the room and at a low cost. Keep looking for nick knacks at flea markets and build up on the Equine style. Cost effective yet impressive!

Little girls love horses :) This is just too pretty to not be featured! Love the main motif, and the darling monogram ! Pink and horses..and I am totally smitten. Country style and super cute!

Investing in room decor is not always easy. But there are always options available if you search enough. This eye catching, stylish horse decal is a great find! A very modern decor in black and white and the decal takes the whole decor notches up. Great idea to decorate dorm room or teen bedrooms at low cost!

Horse shoe makes such a versatile accent! A simple iron bed is now a designer piece of art with some horse shoes added! If you love horse themed decor and know someone with talent, get them to weld horse shoes to an iron bed. The lovely South western colorful rug adds awesome style and color. I truly love each and every detail in this room.

Have a passion for the Equine style but not sure how far you want to take it? Choose accents to include your love for the lifestyle. These horse head book ends are just right for your work space as well as living room. To me it even looks like a chess piece. Horse rider who loves chess?

This is an out and out display of love for the horses and Polo! Each detail in this room goes perfectly with the equestrian theme. Right from the delish wall mural, plaids, window valance in horse prints to simple furniture! Perfect!!

Themed decor should not stop at living room and bedrooms. Take it to every corner and be open to ideas. These lovely dinner plates are so unique and delightful! I love the silhouette and can imagine this set would make a wonderful gift too. You can find these @ West Elm.

Another impressive horse shoe decor accent! This wine rack will so appeal to the cowboy in you. I love the elegant design and simple lines. Very creative and super stylish!

Each time I choose a theme I fall in love with it!! This theme has been unique in the way it celebrates the love and passion for a beautiful animal.
