Fall FashIN Preview: Pick a Name, Any Name!

Last month, the girls of HandbagHeaven.com teamed up with our sister stores, SunglassWarehouse.com and Scarves.net, to put on a night of mingling, unique/crafty activities, and trend-talking for Indiana-based stylemakers. (You can read more about the night here!)

Fall FashIN Preview: Name That Handbag

One of our favorite activities (we admit we’re a little biased) gave each attendee a chance to name a few of our favorite fall handbags before hitting the site. Winners were chosen based on creativity and the ability to capture the true essence of the bag — and each gal got to take her winning bag home at the end of the night!

And now, without further ado, here are a few of our favorite Name That Handbag contest moments (and a few pics from the event, too!):
