In the Fall of 2007 Beirn officially launched their signature Water Skin Tote. While traveling the world, Rita Beirn and her two daughters, Ali and Jenna designed a few bags for themselves as a memory of their trip. They designed the Water Snake Tote with defined top-stitching in an amazing array of colors. When they returned to New York, they shared this great daytime tote with their friends and, hence,decided to introduce this bag to the world. "The Beirn bag is lined with a lightweight canvas material that can endure the lifestyle of a jet-setting woman, while the snakeskin exterior is sure to make any cosmopolitan trendsetter feel so enigmatic with her smart bag in tow". The totes, with matching ballet flats, instantly became a must-have to shoppers and Vivre customers!

Our Friends at the Find.com Are Roaring Over Leopard!

Thefind. com Loves Leopard for the Fall! Do leopards change their spots? Read on!!!!



As a tribute to the new fall season which is flowing into stores as we speak, the leopard print accessory is on the prowl again. Love 'em or hate 'em leopard print is the trend that seems to return with out fail. If used sparingly leopard print handbags add some graphic interest to your favorite LBD or all black ensemble. The Jimmy Choo Mandah hobo bag is patched with solid leather which diffuses the leopard print to prevent leopard print overload. Look for graphic batik or faded leopard prints which pair rather nicely with denim such as the Lauren Merkin 'Eve' clutch.
Shown here are some picks for leopard print handbags (from top to bottom):
Christian Louboutin Leopard-Print Pony Fur Clutch - Leopard, $940.00 at Saks.com
Yves Saint Laurent Palma Leopard Print Canvas Tote, $599.99, at Overstock.com
Jimmy Choo Mandah hobo bag, $3,495 at Net-a-Porter
Lauren Merkin Eve Leopard Print Fabric Clutch, $165 at Bloomingdales.com
Anya Hindmarch Leopard Print Clutch by, $172.00 at Vivre
Yves Saint Laurent Muse Two bag, $2,295 at Net-a-Porter

Pretty in Pink from Our Friends at Thefind.com

Neon Pink Flashback Inspiration from Our Friends at TheFind.comThink PINK this summer as we transition into fall. The '80s influence continues and we are loving the sizzling hot hues, especially neon hot pink. The stark contrast of neon pink with black looks fresh and fun for clothing and accessories. Pair a hot pink shell blouse with an over sized black boyfriend jacket or skinny jeans, or go from head to toe in a hot pink asymmetric dress. There are also hot pink accessories such as this cheeky Alexander McQueen clutch, neon pink belt or pink thong sandals to choose from if you're looking for just a dash of neon hot pink color.

Zipper Accessories Add a Dash of Punk Inspired Whimsy



Zipper detailed accessories add an edgy dose of '80s punk to handbags and shoes this season. Add a slash of Sid Vicious inspiration with this fun trend for summer. Look for zippers that add an embellishment that is not purely functional. The zipper frill sandal by Pour la Victoire's zipper "flower" is pure over-the-top whimsy. We also love the bold zippers and crystal zipper pulls by Christian Louboutin. Wear these zipper accessories with a pair of destroyed jeans and oversized Alexander Wang tank.
