As we've established, time and again, there is no cooler fashion accessory on all the planet than a pea-sized pooch. Teacup poodles, bichon frises, Chihuahuas, you name it -- if it can fit in a purse, it's fashion gold.

But for those times when you need something a little less ritzy, and a tad more functional, you should try a fanny pack...for your dog.

Not only is this helpful for when you need to be hands-free, but still want your favorite fur-covered fashion accessory by your side -- some might consider it quite the statement. Especially if you believe the NY Times, who thinks that fanny packs are making a comeback.

Could the pooch pack be the perfect way to combine these two emerging style trends? Oh yes.
