These fashion inspired collars, leads and travel accessories add a touch of sophistication for style conscious pets and pet parents.

kathy ireland® Loved Ones has created a collection of collars, leads and travel accessories that keep pets safe and stylish on the go. More than being simply fashionable, these products include many unique features that enhance the lives of pets and pet parents.

“For too long the travel category has been dominated by products that are merely functional,” says Aimee Diskin, Director of Innovation and Product Development for Worldwise, Inc. “While functionality is a must, the products in the kathy ireland Loved Ones travel collection go beyond basic practicality with stylish designs and innovative features that make travelling safer for pets and easier for pet parents.”

The Loved Ones travel collection includes a variety of products that are both fashionable and functional. The Braided Breakaway Cat Collar (MSRP $9.99) is constructed of ultra-lightweight materials and is designed to release if it becomes entangled. Available in pink or green it comes with a charm and a ring to attach an ID tag.

For dogs, kathy ireland Loved Ones has created the Fashion Dog Collar with Tag Silencer (MSRP $14.99 – $20.99). These unique collars are equipped with a patent pending integrated tag silencer that is designed to quiet jingling tags. The easy-access ring allows pet parents to quickly attach a lead without searching for the ring. These faux-leather and fabric collars are available in three styles – green chevron, blue emblem and pink floral – and in four sizes: extra small, small, medium and large.

To make every walk an easy walk, Loved Ones offers the Fashion Dog Lead (MSRP $20.99 – $22.99). Perfectly coordinated with the Fashion Dog Collars, these leads feature a shock absorbing handle, a clasp that can be attached to collars using one hand, and an accessory ring for keys or a waste bag holder. The leads come in a four foot length for larger dogs or a six foot length for smaller dogs and are available in green chevron, blue emblem and pink floral styles.

Whether going across town or around the planet, kathy ireland Loved Ones offers products designed to make travelling a fun and fashionable experience. The Fashion Pet Travel Tote (MSRP $119.99) provides an easy way to carry a small pet in comfort and style. Durably constructed with the style of a designer handbag, the tote features padded non-slip handles and a stay strap that attaches to a pet collar for safety and security. The outer pocket keeps keys and accessories handy and hidden built-in feet protect it from wear and tear.

The Collapsible Pet Travel Bowl (MSRP $22.99) is a versatile water or food bowl to keep pets happy on the go. The bowl’s waterproof interior folds over the zippered closure to keep it clean. It has a handy faux-leather carrying strap and is available in green ticking or pink floral designs.
