Doginista of the Day: All American Hunk Bizmark's Bodacious Buddy

Just LOOK at those sculpted haunches! Yum!
Today's Doginista of the day is along the lines of mommy's most recent blog posts from Milan--that is to say, MAN CANDY (to all the little chihuahua bitches out there reading, YOU'RE WELCOME for this mid-week pick me up)! Who knew when I opened the call for doginista submissions that I'd find myself in a matter of days staring smackdab into the face of the Brad Pitt of the canine world, my forlorn love across the sea, Bizmark's Bodacious Buddy known affectionately to those in his inner circle as Bodey.

Bodey is AKC registered Golden Retriever of Emily from Fashion Foie Gras. He, just like his mommy (and my aunty!!!!) is from an award winning bloodline (obviously, just look at that jawline) of golden retrievers. A strapping man of six, like a fine canine wine or Geroge Clooney, Bodey just continues grow more handsome with each passing year. A true all-American dog, Bodey prefers the brands of the heartland and is hardly ever seen wearing bandannas by anyone other than Ralph Lauren. Sigh, sometimes a girl just needs a bit of preppy masculinity in her life to get the puppy-heart rate going.

Alas, All-American hunk that he is, Bodey resides back in North Carolina while his Mommy lives here in London. There are times when I see Aunty Em and she has just the faintest trace of smoldering retriever on her, but it's ever so distant, so I dream of the day when I get get a good whiff of my own. But I feel for both Bodey and Aunty Emily, I know how hard it is to be stuck Stateside whilst your Mommy traipses off around the world, abandoning you--in fact, I think I've just sorted our first date dinner conversation. Just two pedigreed blonds, one T-bone steak and the red, white and blue, what more could an American-Pom in London wish for?

Doginista of the Day: Give me Libertys or give me snausage


Friends by association. Today's doginista(s) of the day are two plucky Jack Russells I've heard loads about from their Daddy, Chris, who works at Liberty and hence sees myself and Mommy on a nearly daily basis. These two, Baba and Alexandra, can allegedly rival me in their accessory collections, I mean, just look at those beaded skull necklaces their wearing. I feel a fashion dog WALK OFF on the way!!!!!

Pomeranian at the Press Days: Mulberry Mio


On Friday, Mommy took me to visit one of my all-time favorite human and canine brands, Mulberry, who were having their preview for Fall/Winter 2011. Remembering last season's Victoria Sponge Cakes from the press day, my little paws couldn't carry me down Bond Street fast enough. And sure enough,  in lieu of cakes (there were little foxy cookies which resembled my own visage so much that even I couldn't bring myself to chow down), there was a chubby and wrinkly faced boy pug, the Mulberry pug, lounging about at his mommy's feet wearing the latest season's hoodie waiting to greet me upon arrival.



Being the diva doginista I am, I can smell a fix up from a mile away. The human thought process is thus: "ooooh they're both doggy models, roughly the same age, it'll be love at first sight!" HEllllllo! Doesn't mommy know I string along multiple boys at any given time, it's just the diva doginista's way. Anyhow, I'll never turn my tail up at an opportunity to sniff bums with a pedigreed and STRAIGHT male dog, alas, I'm worried that Uncle Simon G's Dhilly has gone over to the gays and is now using me as a doggy-beard. However, straight though the pug may be, he was also working a little number at the press day and I just couldn't let myself be shown up. Exqueese me: I AM THE FASHION DOG, taste coming out of my little paws in spades. He is nothing more than a canine clothes-hanger, a vestibule on which doggy jumpers and jackets get showcased--it was very obvious that this here was a straight, unfixed man of a man dog.


So naturally, I was invited to try on this amazing taupe and cream striped mohair jumper, so that myself and my male counterpart could pose together for a few choice puppy paparazzi. 




Fashion dog and lover of limelight that I am, I beamed naturally at the cameras, widening my smile to put Julia Robert's to shame and coyly showing off the assets of that beautiful jumper. Poor little man was totally upstaged, I mean, just look at the dismay on his face in the photo above. When it comes to a little snappy sesh, all canine breeds must know, pugs simply cannot compete with Pomeranians.


That's right, you can make that sad droopy face all you want, poof beats wrinkles and that's that. Eventually, I got bored of his sulking and migrated in the direction natural for all fashion dogs: towards the nearest Alexa. Slumped over on the floor, a classic honey Alexa was sitting neglected, so I had to check it out.


After touching the soft leather with my paws, I knew that this little number had to be added to mommy's bag wishlist, and promptly set about seeing if I could climb inside (read: investigating whether or not Mommy needs to go oversized to accommodate yours truly). Too bad the owner had the damn thing buckled and I couldn't get inside! Opposable thumbs would be SO useful sometimes!

"I'm sorry, but can you help me with this latch thingy so I can try this Alexa on???"
"Who needs boys when you have toys!!!"
"And we all lived happily ever after..."
Except for Mr. Puggle, who went home sulking in a plastic shopping bag, his Mommy's Alexa having been usurped. Pommy WHAT!!!!"

Pommy in the Studio: A Visit to Corrie Nielsen


 Last week,  Mommy took me to explore the studio of up and coming designer (and Fashion Fringe winner) Corrie Nielson. En route to her studio, located at Somerset House, we bumped into the one and only Christopher Kane who gushed at running into me, we're old besties.



Anyway, I had a great time running around the studio and chasing stray scraps of fabric whilst Corrie talked Mommy through her toilles and inspirations for her stunning forthcoming Autumn/Winter collection.

Introducing Jaeger London's Pooch Tote


That's right, bitches! The Pooch Tote from Jaeger London aka The Butters Bag has at long last arrived! I received the following press release via my pom-mail last week, last one without a Pooch Tote is SO blacklisted at LFW. 


Introducing Jaeger London's luxurious, limited edition Pooch Tote - the only way to carry your most precious BFF.


Designed in sumptuous, nude leather with classic, discreet gold hardware and branding, Jaeger London's Pooch Tote is the most stylish dog bag on the market and has been designed to meet every petite doggie's needs, including:


* A clever design spec allowing petite pooches space to lie down and relax, thereby completely concealing themselves, or ability to peek out and take in the view.
* A stylish, leather cross-hatch concealed side air vent for easy pooch breathing
* A softly padded and washable base cushion ensuring a clean and comfortable ride for your tiny, furry friend.
* A versatile side flap, with zip pocket for your keys and credit cards, that can be poppered up at a moment's notice to hide away your pooch ensuring their security and secret access to the most VIP events.


Butters the Fashion Dog, muse for the Jaeger London Pooch Tote, comments: "As a fashion dog, I've always struggled to find the right bag to ride in that is as practical and comfortable as it is chic. Most of the offerings out there border on chav, and this doganista is anything but! Luckily Jaeger London has come to my rescue with this gorgeous, sleek, leather bag, that from the outside doesn't have anything canine about it - just the way we stylish doggies like it!"
