The Year of the Horse is upon us and this popular motif can be found everywhere from fashion to interiors.  I personally have a love of all things equestrian.  Here are my very favorite finds for the equine lovers out there. 

See all these equestrian items and more on my KEEP “Year of the Horse” board.

Check out more about the year of the horse HERE. 

The Horse (馬 午) is one of the 12-year cycle of animals which appear in the Chinese zodiac related to the Chinese calendar. The Year of the Horse starts from Jan. 31, 2014 (the Lunar New Year / Spring Festival of China) and lasts to Feb. 18, 2015.

The spirit of the horse is recognized to be the Chinese people’s ethos – making unremitting efforts to improve themselves. It is energetic, bright, warm-hearted, intelligent and able. Ancient people liked to designate an able person as ‘Qianli Ma’, a horse that covers a thousand li a day (one li equals 500 meters).
