2006 On The Rise Awards: Stylebakery.com

Stylebakery.com has just announced the winners of their 2006 On The Rise Awards, recognizing reader-nominated emerging designers and online boutiques. Here are some of my fab finds from some of the featured sites:

TwoSpaceStudio is celebrating their win by giving all shoppers free shipping throughout the month of August! Here you can find cool accessories like this purple wrist cuff, along with simple but chic dresses, skirts and tops.



At Elaine Perlov I found sleek, minimalist clothing with a very urban vibe, like this beautiful bamboo-print denim jacket.



At Amy Schwab Designs, I found beautiful belts in all the colors of the rainbow and as many funky prints as the retro section at Value Village...my favorite were the silk scarf belts, and the fabric belts:





At Hayden-Harnett Handbags, I especially liked the 'Tokyo' clutch and the Havana large hobo bag from their fall collection.

Tokyo Clutch in Pyrite:


Havana Large Hobo in Vintage Black:


At Couture Candy, I found these heavenly Erotokritos leather stacked heels:



That would go really well with this adorable Ella Moss wraparound skirt:



At ShopRapunzels.com I found this nicely draped t-bags tank:



And this cute Rachel Pally caftan-style top, which also comes in white.



There are a bunch of other winning sites, but I haven't got time at the moment to browse through them all...follow the link to Stylebakery.com and find out for yourself why they beat out the competition!
