A Peek into Tara Metzner's Equine Space at Home
In the world of equestrian sports, Tara Metzner stands out for her impeccable style and dedication to her craft. As a champion rider, Metzner's wardrobe is a blend of functionality, comfort, and personal touch.
One of her most cherished possessions is her Oughton Limited bag, a prize won from her victory at Menlo. The bag, adorned with HABiT's trademark orange button on the right sleeve, is a constant companion, whether she's competing or going about her day-to-day activities.
Metzner's wardrobe also includes a HABiT Play day-to-day button-down shirt, made of the softest cotton and tailored to her specific measurements. Her personal beauty routine is simple yet effective, with a focus on sunscreen, and she prefers Skinceuticals tinted sunscreen for its protection and coverage.
In the saddle, Metzner is sponsored by Samshield, and she wears their gloves and helmets, particularly the Miss Shield helmet for its extra sun protection. Her favourite riding boots are the DerDau Dream boot, which she orders custom-made to accommodate her long legs.
When it comes to her riding attire, Metzner prefers custom-made show clothes to ensure a perfect fit. Her favourite show jackets and shirts are custom designs from Valencia Saddlery in Los Angeles, California, also known as HABiT. She always shows in Pikeur breeches and rides at home in Callidae breeches, appreciating their high-rise fit.
Metzner's jewellery collection includes a bracelet made from pieces of her favourite horses' tails and a watch won as a prize for winning the International Derby at The Menlo Charity horse show. Her iPhone 11 and aviator Ray-Bans are always in her Oughton Limited bag.
Off the saddle, Metzner's typical wardrobe consists of jeans and a crewneck sweater, most likely in black. Her favourite day-to-day shoes are Vince slip-on sneakers and basic white Converse. A favourite scent, blackberry and bay by Jo Malone, completes her personal style.
Metzner believes in presenting a put-together appearance as a professional in the industry, and her style choices reflect this philosophy. Whether she's competing or enjoying time at home with her horses, focusing on gymnastics and trail rides, Metzner's dedication to her craft and personal style are evident.
