Recently established website Handbago has deliberated and reached its final decisions for the site’s first ever Handbag Awards, and the winners are bound to sound familiar.
The top honor of “Best Handbag” has been bestowed upon Rebecca Minkoff’s trendy Studded Devote Tote from the designer’s spring/summer 2009 collection that was full of similarly detailed bags. The following explanation perfectly sums up the choice:
“Rebecca Minkoff is a fashion designer that speaks to the masses but is also ahead of her time in regards to design,” states Kristina Moreno, President of Handbago.com. “The Devote Tote can be taken in so many directions. It’s edgy, it’s fun and it’s young with a sophisticated twist. Plus, not only is the handbag popular with consumers, but celebrities such as Lindsay Lohan, Lauren Conrad and Michelle Trachtenberg have been seen carrying it as well.”
Other category winners included the Coco Duffle from Alexander Wang for Best Couture Handbag and Marc by Marc Jacobs’ Classic Q Hillier Hobo for Best Value Handbag. See Handbago’s awards page for more category winners.
