Get the luxury look of a croc bag without breaking the bank. Brahmin’s Arno mini totes are gorgeous! Functional as it is fashionable, the tote packs high style in rich-looking croco-embossed leather. Remove the shoulder strap to carry as a chic satchel, then attach the strap for an easy carrying option. You’ll also appreciate the top-zip to keep all your essentials nice and secure. If you would like more color options Nordstrom has the pecan, firecracker, fizz (for $195). We love the sunset, lime and lapis (cool blue) colors to enjoy in spring and summer.
Grab your style inspiration from the streets! Chilly weather didn’t stop these fashion lovers from donning bright and bold hues at the recent Fall 2012 fashion week. Below are among our favorite looks. See more photos here.

The color orange is easy to pull off with accessories especially with shoes. It’s even easier to wear when the shoes are as classy and comfortable as these leather loafers – a must go-to for work, travel and play. Tod’s are known for their quality driving shoes. The Giommino loafers are our favorite style, orange in particular.
If you don’t want to invest in a pair of Tod’s, check out these similar leather loafers by Geox. The price is fabulous at $149.95. Pair them with a fitted top and jeans for a casual-chic work look.

Have you ever come across healthy recipes to try out or certain shoes and bags where you want to wait for them to go on sale? Perhaps there are new shops and restaurants to check out later? To-buy lists for family birthdays? All these do-not-forget-to-save lists can be quite overwhelming, and too often we forget. Well, let clipix help you – it will change the way you organize!
This wonderful tool will be my virtual assistant that will neatly organize and maintain all my online findings ultimately making it easier than ever to retrieve it later.
Clipix will best help me with:
Save time on storing & retrieving

Clipix is free to sign up for and is very user-friendly. Once you sign up, all you have to do is drag the “Clip” button provided onto your bookmarks bar. Now you are ready to start clipping away all your findings and inspirations into your personal clipboards just by clicking the “Clip” button. So simple, it feels almost too easy.
I love the fact that I can break things down into different categories. I’m going to have several clipboards in no time. The very first clipboard I created was Beauty Must-Haves. Being the visual person that I am, photo grouping in clipboard-style really won over my heart.
When you click on the each item it opens to the direct product page. There is the option to leave comments on individual items as well. In addition, you can further organize using the Multiboard feature or sync your findings with your friends & family using the Syncboard feature. Clipix also allows you to customize the privacy settings. Isn’t it wonderful?
Now all I have to do is download the free app onto my iPhone to have it handy while out & about. As a full-time blogger this tool is heaven sent as I’m sure you’ll find it useful too in many ways. How would you use this amazing service? What sort of things would you clip away? Feel free to comment below.
