There are no prizes for guessing who has clothed the horse in the picture below - and no, it's not Barbie.
The styling of the once-noble steed, dressed in shocking pink cooling blanket with leg warmers and bridle in a co-ordinating shade is the handiwork of none other than our favourite glamour queen Katie Price.
Pink beauty: Horse fleece, £49.99; headcollar and lead rope set, £12.99; leg bandages, £12.99
The vivid fuchsia fleece and matching accessories are just a small part of the new KP Equestrian range that the keen horsewoman and entrepreneur has designed for fellow horse-lovers.
Pink-loving stable girls can pick up a magenta velour tracksuit, top, £44.99, bottoms, £24.99, candy pink striped rugby shirt, £29.99, a shocking pink gilet, £49.99, and a pale pink hooded top with diamanté trim, £39.99.

And it's not just the rider that benefits from Jordan's design nous: there are plenty of accessories for horses too.
The cooling fleece, £49.99, collar and lead-rope, £12.99 and leg bandages, £14.99 come in both lipstick pink and a more subtle blue, for the manlier mount.
An accomplished equestrian herself, Katie Price, also known as glamour girl Jordan, keeps six horses in stables on her grounds, plays polo matches for charity and has recently taken up showjumping - coming in sixth out of 27 in a recent competition.
My little pony: Piquet pink polo shirt, £24.95
The fact that the snooty polo crowd are rumoured to have deemed her 'too chavvy' to attend the recent Cartier polo event (and even worse, the snub was said to have come from the tent run by soap star hangout China White) hasn't dampened her spirits.
Defiantly telling the organisers she didn't care, she focused her attentions on her other interests which, aside from her children's books, fragrance and magazine shoots, involve designing this new clothing range, available for sale through Derby House, a popular equestrian supplies company (www.derbyhouse.co.uk).
Said Katie of the range: 'There’s something here for everyone – all ages and sizes, the horsey and the non-horsey.
'It’s fashionable and stylish but at the same time functional and wearable. And the horsewear is just fab. Your horse is going to look so cool!'
