If I Were A Rich (Wo)Man - Elephants

It's a bit of a random theme but I keep seeing elephant paraphernalia everywhere at the moment and I do love those gentle giants. So, here are a few of my favourite elephant-themed pricey items.

The Elephant Hook

I love this Elephant Storage Hook. It adds a touch of fun to a simple element in the home. I also like the vintage style of the elephant hooks.

There are lots of other animal hooks available.

Priced £16.95

The Elephant Wall-sticker

Technically, I think these Love Mae Elephant Parade wall-stickers are for children but I kind of like them myself; they've got a bit of a dreamy quality, Plus, I love the watercolour style.

Priced $84.95AUD

Elephant Cushion

The monochrome style of this Iosis White Elephant Cushion means that, even though it is unusual, it is still stylish. It would go with most interior design types and add a fun touch to your sofa.

Priced £65

The Floral Elephant

This colourful Elephant Parade Flower Impression elephant is perfect for adding a weird and wacky touch to your home. This is part of The Elephant Parade which has seen large elephant sculptures decorated by artists around the world; this is a limited edition miniature. Part of the proceeds go towards The Asian Elephant Foundation, so you'll be spending for a good cause.

Tattoo Trends: Foxes

13 Gorgeous Fox Tattoos

Image via Pinterest

Fox tattoos seem to have been growing in popularity in the last few years. This may be because there has been a big surge in popularity for anything woodland; not just in tattoos but fashion and home too. Foxes are one of the favourite woodland symbols. In fact, I've done a Tattoo Trends post on animal tattoos before, and this fox tattoo was by far the most popular on Pinterest.

Traditionally, a fox symbolises intelligence, cunning, and often trickery. People choose to have them tattooed to reference these features as well as a sense of fun, wildness and an affinity with nature.

I've gathered together a few of my favourite fox tattoos that I've seen around the web; there are some stunningly amazing ones done by very talented artists.

A lot of fox tattoos are realistic and have a traditional feel.

Other people are choosing to have more cartoon styled fox tattoos, or ones with a surrealistic feel.

Cats in Hats

Top Hats For Cats - Harvest Joy - Tangerine Tango - To Scarborough Fair

The perfect accessory for the style conscious cat

I resisted doing a purrfect pun there, I just couldn't bring myself to write it.

I love cats, but I've never really been in to the whole dressing them up like dolls thing. Mainly because my cat Otis, though he looks cute and playful, would most likely exact his revenge in the form of a rabbit head in my bed.

But then I came across the feline fashions of To Scarborough Fair on Etsy. From the moment I saw the Indiana Jones Fedora Cat Hat I was a convert.

Indiana Jones Fedora Cat Hat - To Scarborough Fair

These creations are what a stylish feline would want to wear, not the cutesy get ups that are all over the internet.

What cat wouldn't want a Puss in Boots cat hat?

Or a French Puss cat beret?

Here are a few more fashionable pieces of feline head gear.

Tattoo Trends: Animal Instinct

Animals have always been a popular tattoo theme, especially creatures like lions that denoted strength.

Animal tattoos have stayed fairly steady in popularity but they now seem to be having a boost. This may be to do with the woodland trend that is evident in home and fashion at the moment. The theme seems to have passed over to tattoos and consequently a lot of people are getting forest creatures indelibly etched onto themselves.

Animal tattoos are often used to symbolise an emotion or, to get cheesy, the spirit within. Wild animal tattoos usually signify power or freedom of spirit.

This tiger tattoo is amazing.

Ditto this wolf.

But it's not only wild animals that people are getting inked, pets are also very popular, usually as a way to mourn a beloved member of the family.

Look at that face!

Of course, some animal tattoos do not turn out the way people planned.

I'm not even sure what creature that's supposed to be.

Epic.
