Judy Berger & Friends, Spitalfields Paw Pageant

It wasn’t ALL about the pampered pooches at Spitalfields last Monday (but mainly, cos they’re so cute). Punters could also pick up some vintage gems at Judy’s Affordable Vintage Fair, run by Judy Berger (centre), who also entered her pooch in the Pageant for a chance to strut down the dogwalk. ST

Myriam & Bidou, Spitalfields Market Paw Pageant

Myriam and her four month old French Bulldog Bidou were stars of the show at the Spitalfields Paw Pageant last Monday. He was so sweet I wanted to squeeze him in my handbag and take him home. ST

Layla Anna-Lee and Mojo

StyleTails caught up with official voice of the London 2012 opening ceremony, the lovely Layla Anna-Lee to talk about that moment with the Queen, hot boys on bikes and finding her Mojo……her Japanese Spitz, that is. Just when we thought that the entire nation was about to slip into “Post Olympic Depression” (that’s a real thing apparently?), [...]

Old Spitalfields Market – Paw Pageant

Imagine my near, pants-wetting levels of excitement when I was asked to judge the Paw Pageant at Spitalfields Market last Monday in support of Battersea Dogs and Cats Home. For the second year in a row, the coolest canines came from far and wide to compete for fame, glory and mostly for treats…….but also for [...]

Steph and Rioja, Broadway Market

Being the dainty little thing she is, I thought perhaps this was her preferred mode of transport but in fact she was recovering from an injured paw as a result of some over-zealous play time. Rioja also suffers from [...]

Chic Canine Cards from Brown Paper

There are two little known facts about me. One is that I decided to start writing about pets after a failed career as a stuntwoman. The other is that I’m obsessed with stationery. I used to hoard it as a child. I’d keep pastel coloured note pads under my bed and sniff their crisp papery [...]

Katy and Mister – Hoxton

Katy and her Manchester Terrier cross Mister were at the LoveMyDog studio in Hoxton to buy a fetching new Princelet Red Velvet lead. Despite numerous attempts, Mister refused to look down the camera as he was adamant that this is his best side. Fair enough. ST

Studio Mango – Clever Cat Creations

Ok, stop. Kitty Meow Like inception for cats, the Kitty Meow allows your cat to curl up inside a massive cartoon-esque cat head……..which can [...]

Emma and Oska: Wilkes Street

Dachsund Oska was trotting around his stomping ground – E1, with owner Emma. Having recently dropped some weight, Oska was feeling particularly fit – In both senses of the word. Oska is the proud mascot at Emma’s company – Up Projects who work on public art projects, including their most recent – a floating cinema. Excellent! [...]
