A new fashion trend may not be the first thing that occurs to you when you see puppies in pet costumes, but the adorable creatures often seen tucked into a designer handbag are increasingly becoming the latest fashion accessory.

Celebrities and Their Puppies

Some celebrities, such as Courtney Cox, adopt a new dog to deal with their relationship slumps. Other models and celebrities dress in dotted and furry fashions that remind us of puppies. Still, many celebrities such as Britney Spears, Rihanna, Paris Hilton, and Miley Cyrus weave their puppies into their personas and image.

If you’ve seen Mariah Carey and her puppy dressed in matching outfits, you’re already familiar with the new puppy fashion phenomenon. Dog costumes are often a large part of this image.

Puppies as Accessories

Fashion is a form of expression. When you feel energetic and happy, maybe even in love, you might make more effort to wear clothes that make you feel beautiful. Integrating an animal into your look may not come naturally at first. However, if you look closely at some of the celebrities, you’ll see a gradual evolution. First they walk their dogs. Then they might actually wear dotted, furry clothing. Next thing you know, the dog is tucked under the arm and dressed in a matching ribbon or glasses.

Puppies are heartwarming creatures. As a fashion accessory, they attract attention and amuse people. This is one fashion accessory you’ll want to think about carefully before committing. If you buy the wrong size or color, returning it may not be an option.
