Forget the Oscars. These awards can score you and a friend major swag.

From your most fashionable friends to those making a difference in the world, you're invited to nominate the best best friends in your life for The First Annual National Girlfriend Awards, presented by Shecky's.

In celebration of the new Sheckys.com (the ultimate girls' club), you can place your star-worthy girlfriends on the ballot for one of 10 award categories, including Best Supporting Girlfriend, Best Comedic Girlfriend and more.

Not only do the winners score fab prizes--the nominators do, too. We're talking up to $500 worth of goodies and Girls Night Out tickets (may I have the envelope, please?). Nominations are due by August 14. Winners will be chosen by votes and announced on August 31, so round up your girlfriends for a nominating and voting sesh.

And to prepare your acceptance speech.
