Two-Trick Pony

A few weeks ago whilst browsing in a boutique with a friend, I stopped to assess the array of accessories on a table. “Ooo, look at this nice cuff,” I said to her, reaching out to pick up a pony-hair cuff that was worn wound around the wrist…

“Oh. It’s a belt.” It had been rolled up artistically for display.

“It looks good as a cuff!” she replied.

I remembered I already owned a pony-hair belt, and when I arrived home I pulled it out of a drawer and wrapped it round my wrist thus. This is no one-trick pony belt.
