Pink Faberge-Inspired Dog Bed

Filed under: Pets

If you are a pet lover and Faberge-junkie, the Faberge-inspired Fab Imperial Bed from Pawsitively Posh is probably the ultimate in luxury for your dog. Limited to only 350 units worldwide, the bed is covered in a pink velvet and has a silver velour lining, as well as gorgeous silver accents. The bed is recommended for pets under 15 pounds and, because it also has faux-jeweled accents on the outside, is not recommended for pets who chew their beds. It also includes a little silver tiara toy, just in case you didn't realize that the bed is meant for spoiling a little princess. Price: $275.

Don't forget about the royal blue version($350) with a Crown toy for the most princely pet, too.

Designers love eggs. Eggs have beautiful, clean lines and a great shape. The egg shape is perfectly symmetrical when cut vertically, but has a soft slope that draws the eye along its curves when viewed as a whole. Egg shapes can and do appear just about anywhere anwhere, in both small and large sizes. We've noticed this, as egg-shapes have come up repeatedly on Luxist, but we still have our favorites. Let's face it: some egg designs work better than others. These are some of the good ones:
