Annica Hansen is first of all a horse girl. Annica works as a TV host and has built an enormous community on social media. She writes books, has built her own equestrian fashion label, creates popular videos on YouTube, and has become one of the most important equestrian influencers in Germany. In 2020 she fulfilled her biggest dream and bought a beautiful stable located close to the border of the Netherlands. She lives in Ponyhausen with all her animals.
She still has her first horse Wölbchen, which her Instagram account is named after. The chestnut mare is 23 years old and lives a wonderful life. She also has three other horses, two Shetland ponies, three cats, and her dog Jóia. With her lifestyle, honesty, and way of thinking she is a big inspiration to the horse community but also for other female founders, who are eager to start their own business and living a self-determined life.
Warm hands are a must-have for equestrians in winter. I love to wear the Uvex Sportstyle Winter gloves during the cold season to keep my hands warm and dry. Even after hours I still feel comfy and as a bonus, you can also use them for riding.
Cold ears are a no-go for me. So, I try to keep them warm from the first colder days. I really love my Ponyliebe headband and have it in several colors to match any outfit. With its pearls and stones, it is so beautiful that I also use it when I am not in the stable.
Are you looking for a classy outfit for your horse? The perfect answer during wintertime is always the Kentucky Show rug. No matter what color you choose, your horse will look super cool. To add some elegance, pick the Velvet Show Rug.
My go-to boots in the muddy season are the Countryside Boots which you can find at most tack shops. They are super robust, waterproof, and still look beautiful. I spend a lot of time in my boots and all day long they are comfy and fit also perfect for a casual everyday outfit.
My tip: Wear them with cozy winter socks.
Cracked lips are absolutely horrible. So, I take care of them with my Nuxe lip balm. Having one in every pocket reminds me to use it constantly, keeping my lips soft and neat. Plus, you can also use it for small wounds or dry skin on your hands.
