The Story

Hi and Welcome!

My name is Catalina Guirado and I am a lifelong equestrian growing up in England and now residing in California where I have had horses for the last twenty years.

I created Caballo Design after a friend and her daughter suffered a horrific accident when a car drove into them here in Los Angeles, the driver claiming he could not see them due to bad visibility. Having an art and design business already I decided to make some road safety design riding tops to help drivers see us on the road with clear messages to help them to navigate driving by horses. 

Using bright HiViz colours based on the colours we use in England where road safety is a key part of equestrian life I tested the tops when out riding my horses and saw significant results, even if it was the drivers slowing down to try and read the colourful tops! I decided to create a second collection of bright coloured fashion focused tops for riding out on trails that can be teamed with HiViz accessories for your horse from brands such as Horz and Equisafety ( see my Posh Pony Club Blogs to learn more) and change the collection seasonally to make sure you have access to the right colours to stand out against changing landscapes as well as hunting.

The Sport Horse collection has been designed to be worn as multi-use lounge/Sportswear perfect for working out, hiking, swimming, riding or just as a sporty fashion top. Pair with the barn leggings and sports bra from the Lounge collection for a street-style fashionista look. Let's face it you can never have enough 'equestrian' design in your lives when you are a Horse Girl!

I create all the designs myself from the photography of my own and friend's horses to create exclusive limited edition prints. Each print design has been created 100% with love and my tag lines Stay Fearless and Stand Out From The Herd are metaphors for life in general. Caballo Design uses sustainably produced goods where possible and tries to be mindful of the carbon footprint we create. Each piece is made especially for you by my print partners around the world in the zone to match your delivery address, which is why it takes us a bit longer to deliver it to you. Making products on demand instead of in bulk helps reduce overproduction, so thank you for making thoughtful purchasing decisions!
