Fashion With Felines - Sharing The World of Kitty Couture and Apparel ~ Today's Special GUEST STAR is **ERIC'S EMPAWRIUM** & We Have A Little Give-Away Too!

Fashion with Felines with Pandora Von Der Plume 2020 ©BionicBasil®

Hello fabulous kitties and hoomans

Mancat Monday was previously scheduled with Humphrey, but I Pandora Von Der Plume Feline Fashionista Extraordinaire hijacked the blog instead as today I am back with my Fashion with Feline series sharing all the latest news, gossip and trends from the world of Kitty Couture and Apparel.

This is your go-to place for all emerging fashion trends for 2020, and I'll be interviewing exclusive brands and exceptional kitties who share a love of fashion, design and dressing up too.


This week I have the utmost purrleasure introducing Eric from Eric's Empawrium which is actually only a few miles away, and even in the same county as us; Robin Hood country aka Nottingham U.K., OMC can mew believe it!  And he's a kitty with a furry generous heart as mew'll see in his exclusive intermew.

Eric is also a very talented and handsome tuxedo kitty who designs the cutest bandana's mew've ever seen, plus he model's all his own designs too, how epic is Eric?  EPICALLY EPIC!

Plus Eric has an Etsy store, so if mew're in the market for a fab new bandana, he's the go-to guy to get yours. Click the link below to check out the latest creations:


Exclusive Intermew with The Designer

Eric dahling, do tell us about how mew came up with the idea for your exclusive Empawrium?

We wanted to make a little store for cats and help causes along the way by having fun. Each year we chose cat charities to share their work and donate a percentage and encourage donation drives. I love my Bandanas so I wanted to share in this by making them for others.

How long has your shop been open? 

We are VERY new and just this Christmas we opened.

Where do mew get your inspiration from?

Mum has a creative brain and will very often be inspired by colours and themes which could pop up anywhere... movies, adverts and so much more. 

How many designs do mew sell?

We sell over 25 designs at present but I'm working my paws on another 20 for this year.

Do mew have a favourite design or fabric?

My favourite is 'meowgical' mum says it brings out my sparkly purrsonality!

Do mew ship wurldwide?

We sure do! We are expanding each day with countries so most will be available mid-year so we can keep our shipping costs compawtetive!

How easy is it for mew to source fabrics?

Very easy, mum goes to events and has a couple of lovely suppliers. We are even designing our very own this year to print! Designed by mum herself.

Is there anything else mew'd like to share with our readers?

We are a little business with a great big heart! We love the pawsome cat community and hope we can help many unfortunate paws this year!

Thank mew very much for intermewing me
Eric xx

Fashion with Felines starring Pandora Von Der Plume ~ The Feline Fashionista ~ Featuring Supurr Funky Space Cat Leggings & Give-Away

Welcome to


Bonjour mes amis!

And velcome to my regular Fashion vith Felines post!

Bringing mew the cutest, fun trends in kitty themed fashion fur your pet hooman.

As many of mew know I once lived in the beautiful, romantic city of Paris fur a spell during my time vith The Resistance, and vhile there I developed a love of fashion. So if mew're looking fur the best in kitty apparel mew're in the right place!

If mew 'av missed any of my previous feline fashionista posts, 'ere they are:

Kitty Shirt T-Shirts

Irregular Choice Starry Night Handbag


The Hello Kitty & The Hello Kitty Purrchase Challenge


Now this veek I'm going to share vhat I bought the P.A. fur 'er birthday, I got 'er these...  
They're really a nice quality spandex/lycra mix with lots of stretch. Now the P.A. said she vanted them to wear at the gym, because one thing she doesn't like is turning up anywhere and someone else is vearing the same thing! So I thought by buying 'er these she'd definitely be the only one vearing them! MOL

So vhen they arrived and the P.A. tried them on - size S -  and she realized that they veren't going to be suitable fur a 'eavy gym session due to the low waist and fabric being a little too silky against the skin, they did ride down a little especially during squats and there's nothing wurse than continually having to pull your leggings up! MOL


Don't they look so cute on?

That aside, they've been now relegated to anytime lounge-vear and they're brilliant, so comfy and a purrleasure to wear, with no constriction, restriction or feeling that they're too tight.  Basically mew can do any job mew like and be supurr comfy vhile doing it, or if mew're just lounging around at 'ome they're purrfect fur that too. They look great with a tank, basic T or a tunic, layering wurks furry vell too,

The final vote: a paws down fur gym-vear unless mew constantly like 'oisting your leggings up, but a big paws up fUr the ultimate comfort in lounge-vear. 

If mew're wundering vhere to get them from; they vere from Amazon though the bad news is they're unavailable now, but the good news is I 'ave an extra set to give-away in a size M - details further on in the post.


Pandora's Fierce Fashion Tip:



Now onto the Give-Away

The give-way is open wurld-wide** as usual, and all mew 'ave to do is leave a comment below. I'll do the video draw fur the winner next Friday at 5pm, so mew 'ave until then to enter and the winner vill be announced the on Sunday Selfies on the 29th July!

And vhat's the prize, I 'ear mew ask?

Vell mew've already seen vhat the supurr cute prize is, one pair of space cat leggings in size medium - approx 12 to 14 UK size or  8 - 10 US & Can size.

[**Unless mew're in one of those countries that aren't allowed to join in. Mew know who mew are!]

GOOD LUCK!!!

Fashion with Felines starring Pandora Von Der Plume ~ The Feline Fashionista ~ Featuring Hello Kitty & The Hello Kitty Purrchase Challenge

Welcome to


Bonjour mes amis!

And velcome to Fashion vith Felines!

Bringing mew the cutest, fun trends in kitty themed fashion fur your pet hooman and fur yourself.

Oh my it seems like fureffur since I vas last 'ere sharing some fabulous feline fashion items with mew, and if mew missed any of my previous feline fashionista posts, 'ere they are:

Kitty Shirt T-Shirts

Irregular Choice Starry Night Handbag

And today I'm sharing vith mew one of the most synonymous kitty brands effur in the 'istory of all things kitty

and of course mew knew that!  

Earlier in the year the P.A. got this supurr cute, tiny bag [munchkin size] fur 'er niece who's just turned 2, and she loves it!


Now I don't know about mew, but ve love HK here, the P.A. has lots of HK things which she's collected offur the years such as; lunch boxes, pens, stationary, plush soft toys, t-shirts, socks, slippers, key chains, stickers etc, etc, etc...

So I asked 'er if she'd bought anything HK recently fur 'erself and the reply was a rather definitive, "No."

I replied, "Vell Miss P.A. I think ve should go shopping!"

There was absolutely no argument or 'esitation to my suggestion and we raced to the nearest computer.


WE DECIDED THAT AMAZON AFFILIATES ISN'T WURKING FOR US SO WE TOOK DOWN THE LINKS 22-4-19

THEREFORE THERE ARE NO LONGER ANY LINKS TO SHOPPING GOODIES!

SORRY ABOUT THAT


I gave the P.A. the fifteen-minute Hello Kitty Purrchase Challenge ~ she 'ad 15 minutes to find cute 10 items, and then the same fur moi.

31 and a half minutes later this is what we compiled:-

The P.A.'s List

****************************************

And now...

My Far Superior List

****************************************

So who do mew think 'ad the best list today?

Purrsonally I believe my list to be far superior to the P.A.'s, furstly all my items are completely colour coordinated and secondly, it's just better! MOL
