Our newest jacket...

The perfect coat for strolling city streets in style is here. Chic, smart, sophisticated, warm but light, durable, and convenient; everything you want in a coat for your pooch. This classy trench has a yoke and belt loops in a beautiful plaid that is complimented beautifully by a cotton khaki fabric that is found on the lower half of the coat. This coat features an easy, over-the-head design that is very easy to slip your pooch into. The bottom (chest) section has straps that come up and over the upper portion, fastening securely on the back in a double-breasted manner with rustic silver snaps. The chest straps are also held securely in place during walks by the D-ring located on the center back, allowing easy leash attachment, and making the coat double as a comfy walking harness. It is slightly long in design to protect most of your pooch from the cold but significantly shorter in the front for ease (and no messes)during potty time. The pocket on the back adds an extra touch of detail and can be used to carry clean-up bags on a walk. This coat is also completely lined and beautifully finished inside and out. A matching collar can be found here.

Super chic and fashionable

This chic and sophisticated collar is sure to draw tons of positive attention wherever your pooch wears it! Its beautifully coordinated shades of tan, ochre yellow, brown and black in a super hip plaid make it stylish and fashion forward. The black contour, no-choke, side-release buckle and adjustable slider will ensure safety and comfort for your best pal. The nickel D-ring is also sturdy enough to attach a leash to and perfect for tags. This collar is inner lined with high-quality webbing, making it not only chic but very durable as well. The exterior fabric is 100% cotton, meaning it will last, stay looking fabulous, and will be easy to care for! Best of all, it is soft and very comfortable for dogs to wear. Stress points have been stitched several times through to ensure security and for prolonged durability.

Have you seen our newest trench coat?

Have no fear, the rain trench coat is here! No more wet dog smell after your morning walk in the rain! This durable blue coat is made of water-resistant 100% cotton-faced plain weave denim which has been rubber-backed for waterproofing. This coat is completely lined with warm yellow fleece, meaning this coat will not only keep your pooch dry but super warm as well. It is slightly long in design to protect most of your pooch’s body from severe weather but significantly shorter in the front for ease (and no messes)during potty time. A turn-down collar protects your furry pal’s neck from the rain while also keeping them warm. It has an easy slip-over-the-head design with top and bottom panels that come together at the sides and are secured by an adjustable belt ensuring a perfect and comfortable fit. The smart, sleeveless design means no more tracking mud into the house. A convenient d-ring is located on top of the back to allow a leash to be attached without the need of holes for collars, harnesses, etc. Just get your pooch dressed and out the door you go!

Check out Ollie :)

A couple months ago I blogged about a custom coat that I was making for Meg's (owner of Olliegraphic) puppy, a Vizsla named Ollie. When I made the coat, all we had to work with were estimates and approximate sizes that male Vizslas reach when fully grown since Ollie was still pretty small. You may recall my original sketch for the coat:Some time has passed since then and I woke up to a very pleasant surprise this morning: pictures in my inbox from Meg! Ollie's finally grown into his custom coat and look at the handsome young gentleman he grew up to be :) Isn't he darling?! I think he looks rather dashing in his coat, wouldn't you agree?

I am SO excited!

I recently purchased some new fabulous fabrics to make new collars for our shop! I am so in love with the new fabrics--not only are they super cute but very soft as well. Looks like Velma will be getting quite a few new collars soon and I'll be listing them in our shop as well. Check back often to see the latest and greatest in doggie fashion :)

Happy New Year!

I can't believe it's 2009 already!...How time flies.... Well, either way, I wanted to take the time to wish you all a VERY happy New Year. May it be filled with joy, fun, excitement, success, smiles and laughter, family and friends, and the everlasting cuteness our furry friends offer us :) Just like my baby Velma, this year I've decided to take it easy, take time to enjoy the simple things in life and bask in the sun every now and then. Only by doing this can we truly be happy. Have a good one!

One day late...

Yesterday was a busy day and I didn't get a chance to get to a computer. However, "better late than never" I always say, so.... Happy Thanksgiving! I wanted to take a moment to thank everyone who has ever supported me and my business and those who allow me to do what I love. Every compliment, every smile, every kind gesture helps and I just wanted to say how sincerely thankful I am. You are all great! Hope you had a fabulous Thanksgiving too :)

Just for the record...

I love my baby more than anything else in the world; I take her EVERYWHERE with me, I always have her looking perfectly groomed and stylish (even smelling nice!) and she is often seen popping her sweet little face out of a stylish purse slung on my shoulder. However, it really bothers me when people think that she is simply a fashion accessory to me when it's not like that at all!

Believe me, she LOVES living the life of a pampered diva: she LOVES the attention and affection, gets SOOO excited whenever I open up her wardrobe because she knows it's time to dress up and "get pretty", and she happily jumps right into her purse carriers (she even tries jumping into my regular, non-doggie purses!) because she knows it means that she gets to do her favorite thing in the world: be with mommy :) It's true, most people only get to see her at work: whether its cheesing it up for the camera during a product photo shoot, accompanying me to a boutique meeting, or any other one of the many things that she helps me with. I understand how this comes off as a little "Paris Hilton-ish" but I would never make her do it if she didn't enjoy it just as much as I do. After all, her happiness and well-being is what inspired me to create my company. As much as she may love her job, though, the other 99% of her time is spent just being mommy's little angel and princess. At any given moment she can be found curled up and napping on my lap, playing a good game of chase at our local dog park, catching a flight to accompany me on my next trip, or strolling busy city streets for a day out on the town. I have been told several times that she lives the life that many children wish they had. All I can do is smile and accept the fact that yes, she is more spoiled than most people's children but what can I say, she's the love of my life and I wouldn't have it any other way :)

Two of my favorite customers

I know I've talked about them before, I know I've said how cute I think they are, I know I've talked about their lovely mom and her FABULOUS company, Daisywares, but I have to bring it up again. Aren't Molly and Sadey PRECIOUS?! Here they are seen modeling two of my creations. Molly is ready for the holidays in her santa suit while Sadey takes a more subtle approach to flashing her holiday spirit in a girly red dress. Their mom, Roni, is always so kind and generous in sharing the cuteness with me so that I can share with all of you :) Just look at those faces... so irresistibly cute!!!

The Holidays Already?!

Oh my! Where did this year go? I can't believe I'm saying this but limited edition "Howliday Collection" pieces are now available in our shop! Even our fur-babies need outfits to show off their holiday spirit :)

All Eyes on Chester

How precious is this?! This is one of my clients, a little gentleman named Chester. His mommy purchased a sweater from our shop a couple of weeks ago and she was lovely enough to send me a picture. Darling, right?! What makes it even cuter is how big the sweater is on him,; he almost looks like a little boy playing dress-up in his daddy's clothes. In this picture, he is only about three months old and still growing into it. Fall and winter are just around the corner, but I'm sure by then he will fit into it perfectly :) What a cutie!

Fall Preview....

Who's ready for Autumn? I know I am :) I find it to be one of the most beautiful seasons with its beautiful colors, ideal weather, and of course, fabulous fashions. This year's 1+1=ONE fall fashion collection will be chic, refined, sophisticated and classy, all while still being casual and fun. I found a beautiful fabric that encompassed all of these key elements and put it to use in this collar. This collar is meant to kick off our fall line and set the mood for what is to come. Stay tuned for more :)

Some down time :)

It's been pretty busy around here with work and getting ready for the new fall collection to launch in our shop (something to look forward to!) but Velma and I decided to take a day off from all the craziness. Where better to go than our favorite city: San Francisco! We walked along the piers, the beach, in and out of shops, and of course, had some fabulous off-leash runs at the park with spectacular views. What a lovely day :)

Custom Orders

I realized today that I don't think I've ever talked about our custom-order experiences or how much we welcome them :) In case you didn't know, we happily accept almost any challenges that you can throw our way when it comes to custom orders-- ranging from custom-sizes on existing designs, to altering design details on our ready-to-wear merchandise, all the way to working out a one-of-a-kind unique design. These orders are some of my favorites since they present challenges as well as creative room that we normally don't have to work with. Here is one of the most recent custom designs that we have created: from the design concept to the existing product. If you are interested in finding out more, feel free to visit our shop or e-mail us at designsbyone@yahoo.com

Have I mentioned how much I LOVE receiving pictures from my customers? It always manages to put a smile on my face and gives me such a feeling of satisfaction. It makes me proud to do what I do and makes it that much more worthwhile. Meet Xen, a stunning American Pitbull Terrier who now rocks one of our collars. Who says dogs who don't like clothes can't be fashionable? You, too, can show off your pet's personality and individuality with one of our custom collars (or anything else from our shop!)
