What I wore to Cornbury & Blenheim Horse Trials. Steal my style, plus my top picks from Joules & Holland Cooper new in!

Hello darlings!

Happy October – it feels like we are really into Autumn vibes now doesn’t it.

After a busy couple of weeks, I’m reflecting on my horse trials outfits. I know it’s a little late, but it’s been a busy few weeks. I’ve been meaning to get this up sooner but we are finally here!


September – the month of horse trials!

We kicked off the month of September with Burghley Horse Trials. If you want to read my style blogs for Burghley, you can find them here, and here.

The weekend after Burghley welcomed Cornbury Horse Trials, and a first for me.

Finally, after the Cornbury weekend, we ended the trio of events with Blenheim, hosting the FEI European championships.


Cornbury Horse Trials

Cornbury Horse Trials is a new one for me, whilst only down the road, I haven’t ever quite made it over to this event before.

We attended for one day, on the Saturday. I was so impressed by the event itself. It felt like a really boujee horse trials – think Pol Roger and Mirabeau rose scattered just about everywhere!

The event is based at the beautiful location of Cornbury House. The XC course was a really lovely walk around, with really great viewpoints at various locations around the course. Due to the layout, you could often see multiple jumps at once.

Steal my style:

When it comes to horse trials style, I’m a practical girlie. Fedoras are a perfect option – either keeping the sun off your face, or the rain off your hair. I really wanted to wear one of the new Waring Brooke jumpers, and the stallion design was perfect for this question event. I chose a tweed skirt and gilet to finish the look. We had seen the ground at Cornbury beforehand, so we opted for wellies for the day.

Blenheim Horse Trials

Another local event, Blenheim Palace International Horse Trials is always on the calendar. This year being no exception, especially with them hosting the FEI European Championships.

With a backdrop of the beautiful Blenheim Palace, Blenheim ticks all the boxes. World class athletes, stunning location, top competition.

Steal my style:

Blenheim horse trials outfit consisted of some new season Joules, which I have been absolutely LOVING! If you’re a regular here, you’ll know just how much I love this brand, and have since I was a little girl. Their A/W collection has just been getting better and better – so I was really excited to style up some pieces for the event. I went for a really classic horse trials style – I loved it!
