Download the “dress my horse” app, and you can upload a photo and put images of various pads and ears etc to see if they would suit. Doesn’t necessarily need to be those brands you buy, but would give you a good idea on what colours would look good!

Mid and dark bays can wear pretty much any colour. Brighter bays can be pretty orange so you might prefer to avoid some pinks and lilacs.

Mine is a pretty standard mid bay, for an SJ look I would think about navy, brown, dark green, white or a caramel/beigey colour. Black can look smart too but I am not keen on black saddle cloths with brown saddles, I don't like her in grey. What colour is your jacket, hat and boots, that might influence what looks best.

For XC anything goes, what is your favourite colour? There is bound to be a shade or a way to combine it that gives the look you want. I have gone xc in navy, but have a green set now. Red looks great on bays and can be very smart with navy or black.
