I've just seen this blog post on my good friends at Tatty Devine. They are being completely ripped off by Claire's Accessories. It is so shameful that big companies feel they can make almost exact replicas of original designs and mass produce them and get away with it!
They have not only copied the Dinosaur necklace but 4 other brilliant brilliant designs, you can see them all here
If this makes you as angry as it makes me, please send your thoughts to Claire's on Twitter, Facebook or email them on this address marketinguk@claires.co.uk

That is bloody shameful! Horrible, cheap versions of the wonderful Tatty designs.
After seeing this earlier it has been tweeted and commented on. I just hope Claire's decide to pay Tatty Designs for the work.
It would be a sad world without fresh new designs which is the ultimate end to this kind of behaviour.

Tatty profane - shame on Claire's
Your friend should sue Claire's - a couple of friends of mine sued a popular supermarket chain in a similar incident when they stole one of their designs and put in on a tshirt. It took over a year and some effort but my friends won.
I've been following this online and am delighted with the outcome. Tatty Devine's pieces are originals, designed with love and care by talented people. I'm sure Claire's are getting the jewellery karma they deserve!
I prefer the Claire's design. They are identical, but the claire's one is probably cheaper and not knocked together by an intern.
