To mark the 10th anniversary of Heroes and Handbags in Houston, event chair Chay Taylor planned an exquisite affair that included a seated brunch and more than 170 designer handbags available for auction from designers like Chanel, Goyard, Elaine Turner, Presmer, Jimmy Choo and many more. All eyes were on the Hermes Birkin Bag, said to be the most sought after and hardest to find handbag. Valued at over $10,000, Birkin bags are known to hold or increase their value over time.
