Fashionista: ‘The elephant shall weep anew’

by

Namaste, mere dost! This is your beloved Fashionista coming to you with the sniffles. Yes, your style guru has acquired a virus of some sort and needs to take some time to herself to recover.

How dare such a common thing as the cold virus find its way into my patrician orifices to make me ill?!

Ah, well. In my absence, I’ve asked Brock, who is majoring in Liberal Arts and French Poetry to compose one of his poems in my place this week. I’ve told him to keep it classy, so let’s pray that he does. ‘Til next week, my loves! Ciao!

That is, of course, unless the horse is dressed by

Your Sooner Fashionista!

Hello, my lovelies!  It’s your Fashionista bringing all the fashion that is fashion this fall on the football field. 

And upon your Sooner gridiron, occasionally, there are two anthropomorphic horses named Boomer and Sooner.  Not those attached to the Little House on Prairie Wagon but those with human hands and 5 fingers. I kid you not!

But what my fashion filled brain wants to know is whose job is it to dress these said equines? Maestro Venebles?  Surely, not.  The man can barely dress himself. Though their taste in clothes does lean the same way.
