Fancy carrying man's best friend...?
Excerpt on the description: 'Based on Paris Hilton's discarded pet Tinkerbell is an upside down dead Chihuahua. This design capitalizes on the trend of carrying a small dog as a fashion accessory.'
It may be a little disturbing but I think it's cute and interesting (the idea!). Normally, I can't stand Chihuahuas but this is the only time I say it's cute...(I guess it's kind of morbid!)

Feeling a little 'military'?
Excerpt on the description: 'For the girl on the move the Pursuader features a handy cell phone compartment in the clip.'
