Try and call this a man purse
We dare you to try and get the little golden monkey head with some crappy nylon pouch you purchased from the Gap ($5 dollars says you wouldn’t make it pass the spiders). These Indiana Jones-esque bags, available online at Amazon.com for less than $15 bucks, from put regular, everyday, messenger bags to shame.
Cost: around $11
Where to Buy: Amazon

No need to head to the nearest drycleaners…
Save a ton of money by laundering your cashmere sweaters at home. In fact, gently washing your cashmere sweaters at home will save you money on dry cleaning and prolong the life of your sweater.
First check to make sure the sweater doesn?t have any trim or embellishments that will require it to be dry cleaned. If there are none present, pour about a quarter-sized dollop of baby shampoo into a clean sink filled with cool water. Swirl the sweater around the sink for 1 to 2 minutes and then let sit for 10 minutes. Drain the sink and gently rinse and squeeze until all the soap is gone from the garment.
Now carefully squeeze the water from the garment, and lay it on a towel. Use another towel (you might need two towels) to soak up the excess water. Reshape the sweater and lay it flat to dry.
