<nav class="bar-tab">
  <ul class="tab-inner">
    <li class="tab-item active">
      <a href="">
        <img class="tab-icon" src="icons/first-tool.png">
        <div class="tab-label">First Tool</div>
      </a>
    </li>
    <li class="tab-item">
      <a href="">
        <img class="tab-icon" src="icons/second-tool.png">
        <div class="tab-label">Second Tool</div>
      </a>
    </li>
  </ul>
</nav>
