Fashion isn't just for people, Pets love dressing up too.

People feel great when they are dressed their best.  It makes them feel proud.  It is like the peacock strutting around with his feathers all out.  We are in full plumage.  People also love their pets.  We treat them like little furry people.  They are like our children!  So, should it come as any surprise that we take such pleasure in dressing them up a bit.  It is no secret I have dachshunds and adore the breed.  So here is a photo or two of the little wieners.

You can find these little jackets at http://www.noodleandfriends.com

If your dog is the sporty type who rides bikes or digs being on a motor cycle, then they might need a great pair of Doggles.

These can be found at http://www.doggles.com





You can find these items at http://theposhpuppyboutique.com





And for those of you have a deep love of the kitties out there.  They deserve to be fashionable too.  Here is a site for them and some pretty pictures  for you to check out.

Aren't they all so sweet?  I just love little furry people.  They just love you without question.  I don't often dress my pets up.  The don't have much fur so if it is massively cold outside I have been known to put a doggie sweater on them.  Nothing quite so designer as the things I have shown you.  But if you have a pile of cash laying around or you just really love to indulge your pet, I hope these tips and sites will help.

Could you wear the elegance of the past today?

  Sigh, I went to the civil war museum with my family this weekend. My daughter needed to go for her college mini semester History class. I thought it was going to be a true snooze fest. It was a really fun and interesting time. The most fun for me was the section of the museum that had period dresses, fans, necklaces, and other accessories. I took some photos to share with my people. I hope you find these items as lovely as I did.


This necklace is beautiful.  Some of you may find this crafty, others may find it creepy.  Either way it's an interesting fact.  This necklace is woven from human hair.  


All hand embroidered.
 This is all hand embroidered.

 This is a friendship fan covered in signatures.
 This is an evening cape.

 Evening ball gown.


Well, that was the period dress section.  It was very exciting to share it with you.  So my question is.  Could you dress like this?  Crinoline hoop skirts?  Man a lot of work goes into each stitch of that hand embroidery.  You would definitely have to wear these dresses a whole lot to make it worth it.  I love the style.  But I am glad to be in this generation where you can buy retro or buy reproduction vintage clothing.  My period is anywhere from the 30's through now.  What's your style?  Post in the comments below.
