Model spends £7,000 on dressing her pampered Pomeranians in designer gear to match her style

A model has splashed out £7,000 on dressing her Pomeranians in designer gear to match her own style.

Lauren Knight has bought an array of designer dupes for her pampered pups Milo, two, and Mimi, five, including Gucci jumpers and Louis Vuitton accessories.

She keeps all their outfits in their own wardrobe and gets them dressed up most days to match her outfits for Instagram pictures.

The pooches model Lauren's brand - Ro & Friends - which sells a variety of dog clothing and accessories.

Lauren, 20, from Ashford, Kent, has spent £7,000 on their wardrobe.

She said: "When I opened a pet boutique, I started using them as models for the clothes and accessories we were selling.

"I found people loved the photos on Instagram and so I kept dressing them up.

"They get a lot of attention when we're out and about.

"All of their clothes are kept in a big cupboard, and they have a little wardrobe with lots of bits on.

"I've spent around £7,000 on their clothes and they have their own little space in the boutique for their outfits.

"Mimi has a lot more than Milo but they both love wearing clothes; Mimi will come to me and sit there and wait for me to put clothes on him in the morning."

Lauren started Ro & Friends to find the perfect clothes and accessories for her adorable pooches.

The pet shop included designer dupes for dogs, from Chewy Vuitton to Pawda.

She added: "I just bought a Louis Vuitton Pet Carrier for Mimi and they have collars, beds, accessories and all extra things like that.

"They are very spoilt - I bring them everywhere with me and we always go to doggy friendly places."

Lauren concedes they have a large wardrobe to choose from and scores of designer outfits for her beloved pets.

They have a host of outfits she dresses them in depending on the season or weather outside.

It means they can be dressed appropriately depending on autumnal temperatures.

Her pooches have hundreds of designer outfits she can dress them in.

She said: "If it's raining, I'll put them in a raincoat and if it's cold outside, I'll put them in a jumper, and we love to match up our outfits.

"They have around 400 items in total.

"Pomeranians are a popular breed anyway so a lot of people will ask me about them or give them attention when we're out."
