Sarah Shaw Handbags Company

Julia Roberts and Jill Hennessy carry her handbags on screen. Magazines like Elle and InStyle feature them, and "Friends" stars Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox Arquette and Lisa Kudrow got them as Christmas presents. The exposure has been good for Sarah Shaw Handbags, whose playful totes come in sherbet-colored stripes and zigzag edges. Sales are expected to top $700,000 this year, Shaw's fourth full year in business.
