I want to buy a gift for a nice young lady who has helped me a lot this year. She rides hunters, does not come from a home where there is a lot of money. I want to buy something for her. She has riding clothes so I don’t want to spend on that. Budget is $150. Any suggestions for those who have 15 year old girls? Is there an “in” piece of jewelry, clothing (but not riding coats, breeches, etc) that might fit my budget? Any help is appreciated. I don’t have kids so I never know what to buy them. And I don’t want to do a gift card - too impersonal for this situation.
Tailored sportsman belts are nice, as are some other ones and I think they’re around that. Also those PONY/RIDE beltshttps://www.deuxchevauxproducts.com/product/ride-belt/ . Or equifit boots if she had a horse to put them on. I love my equifit polo wraps so much.
Belts are good - the Hunt Club woven belts are nice and only $28. They have some beautiful leather ones, as well, for about $80. Maybe the Equestri Lifestyle Boutique spur belts? those are a bit more, $165
What about a nice coat? I’m not sure what climate you live in, but maybe a softshell coat (just of the everyday version, not a show coat), or a nice fleece jacket or something.
I bought my DD (age 23) a beautiful Justin tooled leather belt for Christmas.

i second the TS belt. THey are usually just over $100 or $120?
Also, any Back on Track gear like a saddle pad or the no bow wraps (4 will be about $150) is a nice idea if she owns her own horse.
A nice puffer vest (like The North Face) is always in style, and it’s something she can wear at the barn and elsewhere. I love mine!
Always a fan of Roeckl gloves, BoT saddle pad (with monogramming?), or even a nice set of schooling jump boots.
Signature Spurs! They engrave/personalize spurs and some other riding gear.

Depends on the situation but I got “my” kid body clippers. Once she learns to use them she can save $ on her own horse and even make some clipping for others. She thought it was the best.gift.ever!
I think this lady has plenty of “horse stuff” including clippers. I want something personal, for her.
A few more personalized not as horsey type gifts:
Belts from Moxie & Oliver: https://moxieandoliver.com/product-category/wearables/belts/page/2/
Jewelry from Caracol:

Monogram necklaces like these are still very popular. A nice wallet or wristlet is always something useful. When I was that age, I loved getting gifts that were not horse-related (because I spent all of my money on horse items anyway! 
).

My parents gave me this a monogrammed crop for my 16th birthday – http://www.signaturespurs.com/leather-hunter-jumping-bat-with-personalized-end-cap/ . I still have it and still love it!
a gift certificate for a spa in town or a night out with friends might be a nice non-horsey gift.
I don’t know if these are “in” anymore, but I still love them: https://www.smartpakequine.com/pt/leather-bracelet-1599 or https://www.smartpakequine.com/pt/padded-leather-bracelet-7735. And it would leave money for another gift as well.

I was just going to suggest that! I never got one and always wanted one when I was a young rider.

I bought myself one a couple of years ago. :winkgrin: I use it as a memory bracelet for a horse-of-a-lifetime.
You can also get the “memory” belts that have the engraved plates for horse names. I think each belt can hold around three name plates.
The suede belts from Rebecca Ray Designs are gorgeous and would be great for a teenage girl:

Just ordered signaturespurs.com for a young rider. She will be tickled to death when she sees them. Also ordered for some other friends.
