Juicy Ballet Slippers Charm: Spoiled Sweet or Spoiled Rotten?

PetSugar — Sun, 18 Jan 2009 03:00:37 -0800

We know preppy pets rock collar charms, but what are you thinking about puttin' on these tiny dancing shoes? Even though I'm fairly certain it's meant as your accessory, Kelly Osbourne recently showed up with this on her dog's collar. Since the Juicy Couture clip also comes with the people price tag of $50, would you be keeping this one for yourself instead?

Birth Bone Dog Charms: Spoiled Sweet or Spoiled Rotten?

PetSugar — Tue, 18 Nov 2008 14:00:38 -0800

Each birth bone is encrusted with 100 stunning Swarovski crystals in the colors of your pup's birthstone. That's right, both the front and back are covered with the sparkle. Though, at $40 a pop, I'd be worried the charm would pop off my dog's collar on our evening walkies, you could add this to your own necklace or key chain instead. The only question is . . . would you?

Bare Bones: Rockin Doggie Rocks!

PetSugar — Tue, 26 Aug 2008 03:00:44 -0700

I was taking my usual Sunday stroll though the city with North over the weekend, and stopped into one of my favorite pet shops to find a new line of ultra-cool doggie accessories. Called Rockin' Doggie, these pieces are undoubtedly inspired by rock n' roll, but are stylish enough to wear every day. I loved the guitar pic ID tags adorned with your pup's initial on the front (N for North, of course), and was really digging the leather poop bag holder that comes in a variety of colors.

I'll tell you now that these fashions don't come cheap, but hey – when you're living a wild rockin' lifestyle, you spare no expense. Check out a few of my favorite pieces in the widget below.

Bare Bones: PupPup Designs

Remember those Italian charm bracelets that were all the rage for a while? Well, now you can relive those moments of indecisiveness through your pooch with the PupPup collars and charms. But what's better than the old charm bracelets for humans is that these leather customizable collars are reversible – two collars in one! For only $35 dollars, that's a great deal!

Once you decide on the collar color (trust me, it's a tough decision), you can pick and choose which bling to add on: letters, charms, artsy buttons, or words (around $5 each). It's all up to you. But remember, this is for your pet, not you!

Engagement Ring Shows Your Pet Is "Taken"

PetSugar — Wed, 02 Apr 2008 15:30:39 -0700

Obviously, the first step to getting engaged is a ring! And finding the right mate, of course. So, if you've decided to propose to your pet's BFF, this Engagement Ring Charm ($75) from Juicy Couture is just the thing to let all other suitors know that a pet is taken. With a ginormous cubic zirconium stone set in 14k gold-plated brass, it totally looks like the real thing, but doesn't come with the price tag that your dream engagement ring would!

Pampered Pals: My Fave Collar Charms

PetSugar — Wed, 26 Mar 2008 07:00:02 -0700

Even though it's obvs not a necessity, accessorizing your pet can be fun. Especially when it's something that doesn't get in their way, like a collar charm. Sometimes shoes and coats – however helpful when you need 'em – can sometimes be a pain for your pet to get used to.

Cats can be very finicky about all the bells and whistles, and you might not be able to get used to the price tag on some of the higher-end jewels! Most of you said your cats would never go for ridiculous accessories, but I think the collar charm is a cool way to add some personality and still keep her comfortable. This Skele-Fish charm ($15) is totally something I associate with old school cartoon cats – pulling bones out of their mouths after feasting on a whole fish – à la Tom and Jerry. You don't want to drop a ton of cash on a product for the pet that may not like to be bling'd out. There are a few more of my fave pet collar charms to scope out when you read more.

Fender Guitar Pick Dog Charm ($8-$10)	Birth Gem Bones ($36)
Skull and Crossbones Limited Edition ($2150)	Sterling Silver Star Charm ($9)

Trend Setters: Preppy Pets Rock... Charms

PetSugar — Wed, 28 Nov 2007 16:00:27 -0800

Pets live a charmed life, so why not give them charms of their own?! Whether sterling silver, crystal, or gold, charm bracelets are a preppy necessity. So consider adding two or three accessories to adorn your pet's collar ... and turn it into a charm necklace of her very own. This way, you both can proudly display initials, monograms, or key phrases ("me me me") to show off her fabulousness to everyone around.

That's a Croc o' Collar, Three Ways

PetSugar — Fri, 15 May 2009 14:30:59 -0700

Lovely and luxurious, all of these neck pieces look pretty stylish to me. Granted, we're not the ones wearing it (but we are the ones buying) so, if your pooch likes texture, check out three alligator-inspired collars. Whether they're mock croc or the real thing, I'm not telling . . . but can you tell just by looking? There's hundreds of dollars of difference between them, so find out the prices when you read more.

On the left is a Ralph Lauren Alligator Collar. It's made from glossy Louisiana Alligator, includes a brass lock and key, . . . and comes with a price tag of $495. However, lucky you, it's on sale for $289 if your fat wallet needs some emptying.
In the middle is a pretty CB Collection for Chrome Bones Collar - It's normally $60 (now $50) but mock croc only for this number with a Swarvorski-studded charm.
On the right, is a bargain basement number that looks far from shabby. It's patent alligator-inspired pattern comes with a crystal bone shape - this Faux Crocodile Collar has a very real price tag of $9. I don't know about your tastes, but there's nothing wrong with a simple find for my pampered pal.
