I love Brahmin bags! I’m actually carrying my Brahmin tote today. Brahmin’s Spring 2012 Collection is full of color and character. It embraces the bold this season with looks that will make a statement. Below are my favorites.

This satchel is an iconic, timeless style that is trend-right this season.

Functional and fashionable in a classic polka dot print.

This bag takes on a relaxed look that goes beyond Summer in this neutral dotted print!

The perfect lady-like look. Sweet and sophisticated, soft for Spring.

Last night on NBC’s “Fashion Star,” six cutting-edge designers learned the importance of staying on trend after their summer essentials were purchased by three of America’s top retailers: Macy’s, H&M and Saks Fifth Avenue. Celebrity mentors Jessica Simpson, Nicole Richie and John Varvatos helped guide Kara Laricks, Nikki Poulos, Nzimiro Oputa, Orly Shani, Ross Bennett and Sarah Parrott in designing their winning creations, which are available online and in stores now. The series, hosted and executive produced by Elle Macpherson, continues the search for the next “Fashion Star” in next week’s episode airing Tuesday, April 3 10-11pm ET when the remaining designers are challenged to create one high fashion piece and one mass market garment.

For the Fellas: Style Meets Function with Nobis Anorak Jacket

It’s raining and pouring (no old man is snoring) in Los Angeles today. We have been tested with gusty winds, frequent rain pour and a snippet of thunder. The point is we are experiencing pre-April showers and as I was not prepared I’m sure many of you could use outer-wear to keep you dry. Well, at least some of you.

Nobis’ Spring ’12 outerwear collection is a functional, stylish premium collection of outer-wear built to stand up to nature’s elements. The Packable Anorak jacket (available in black, navy, tan and olive) has pipe detailing and industrial zippers that make the jacket eye-catching. Plus, it’s weather resistant outer shell, interior and exterior stash pockets, as well as fully self-packable flap on the front make the jacket a functional dream.
