Fashions that will have you barking mad.

Firstly may I apologise for my lack of presence recently. University have recently had their reading week and as I am a creative writing student I was invited to attend some of the events (you can read about what I thought of Carol Ann Duffy's poetry reading here.)

So back to this blog, since I'm going to Crufts tomorrow (more about that later), I thought it would only be fitting to look at some cute items based on our canine companions. So here are some of my top picks:

Vero Moda Dog Print Tee from ASOS.

This top is not only as Kawaii as hell but is also super easy to wear. Simply pop on a pair of jeans and some pumps/trainers and you have the perfect casual outfit. I also love the little Dickie bow collar on the dog! Price-wise it's £12 and students who have an NUS card get 10% off which takes it down to £10.80. Best bit? You can buy it by clicking on this link.
 
 
 

Poodle Fairisle Jumper from Simply Be.

Regardless of what the weatherman says, I still find it incredibly cold outside. Fortunately this jumper will keep anybody warm in the unpredictable British weather. The colours also means that it pretty much go with anything. I also think the poodle design is just adorable! Price-wise it is £10.50 and can be brought here.

Plush Dog Eyemask from Claire's Accessories:

I love dogs. I also a huge fan of sleeping. So imagine my reaction when I saw this. I love the fur detailing on the eyes and it's little nose. Also the back is elasticated, ideal for somebody like me who has a big head. Price-wise it's only a fiver, so if I was you, I would part with your pounds now.
 
 


Alsatian Necklace from Silver Animal Jewellery:

Also Silver Animal Jewellery do this fantastic charm bracelet as seen below for £19.99.

If you are like me and prefer quite quirky dresses, this is perfect. Simply team with some black shoes/ leggings and let the dress do all the talking. I love all the different colours on this designs and the dog is totally adorable. Price-wise it is £217.06 which is more expensive then everything else in the blog but I love it.  If you fancy a designer garment then the link is here.
 

So that's some of my top picks of the cutest doggy inspired clothing. As promised at the beginning of the blog, I have some special news with regards to my blog. I will filming a live stream of me at Crufts (or at least as much of a live stream as I can physically film) tomorrow. If you want to watch me look at all the cute little doggies then you can watch my live-stream at http://www.ustream.tv/channel/penguinlover20. I hope you guys tune in and if successful then there might be more live-streams in the future.
