"In case you missed it, February 17 marked the start of the Chinese Lunar New Year - and the beginning of the Year of the Horse. The Year of the Horse can mean different things for different zodiac signs, but according to most sources it sounds like the Horse - full of enthusiasm, speed, and fierceness - is expected to usher in a year of " bold moves and exploration " in 2026."
""We're seeing a clear rise in what we're calling 'horse girl decor' in the home," says Tamara Rosenthal, vice president of marketing at Taskrabbit. "In the past month alone, Western-related bookings on Taskrabbit increased 5% year over year. We've also seen a 93% jump in farm-inspired design tasks and a 12% increase in home projects featuring leather elements," she told me."
