Cursed with near-perfect vision, I’ve always wanted to wear glasses because, come on, they’re awesome. Contact lenses, though? No, thank you. The idea of purposefully sticking something into my eye wigs me so far out I’m in another time zone. But, you brave souls who do wear contacts, check this out: It’s a little doggie lens case. Five bucks at Kikkerland. Totally worth poking yourself in the eye for.

Well, isn’t that just the cutest thing? Answer: Yes. Yes, it is. Find the dachshund letter holder at Anthropologie.
(P.S., Anthro: I think you should totally call this the Maildox. Right?! You can have that one for free.)

It’s still wet and drizzly these days, so while I sit back and wait for May to bring flowers, I may as well protect myself from the elements with one of these snazzy dog umbrellas! Right? I mean, it just seems like the proper thing to do. And with over ten breeds, there’s bound to be one for every dog lover! (I’ve got my eye on the Schnauzer one, of course. Or maybe the Boxer… or the Chihuahua version. Okay, I kinda want them all.)

Sure, we all love the relaxing feeling of floating in a pool, the sun beating down on you while you dip your hands in the cold water at your side, softly swaying in the breeze. What makes you think your dog wouldn’t love it, too?
