Bridesmaids - Yikes! HELP! Time to pick a gift! - TASHASITA's Purple Wedding by Color Blog

So I have a ton of ideas for bridesmaids. I could go the jewellery route. There is an Etsy seller who has these very pretty bracelets and they perfectly match our wedding colours.

Idea 1:

I love them and was thinking of getting these, crystal drop earrings and putting them in a monogrammed jewelry pouch like this

The only thing is you never know your girls' taste in jewelry and also Patrice, one of my BM's makes jewelry. I don't want to insult her that I didn't get stuff from her, but I can't really ask her to make her own gift LOL!

Idea 2:

MAC gift cards (all the girls love MAC), a cosmetic case personalized and a personalized mirror. Here are some of the cosmetic bags and mirrors.

Cosmetic bag choices:

And mirrors:

BTW, Thanks honeybee for that one!

This one has a light lol!

Idea 3:

Clutch for wedding day that hopefully they will wear again.

Was thinking of Coach wristlets too, but I can't seem to find 5 of the same anywhere besides at regular price! I don't really wanna pay regular Coach prices lol
I just don't know. Too many ideas, and too many choices!!!

I say the clutches with a mirror inside and maybe a lip gloss. :o)

Happy Planning

Any particular clutch that you like?

I'm giving my BMs clutches, with a couple of little things inside like a compact & small nail polish...hopefully it's stuff they'll use again!

oh & all of the clutches are different, to match each of their styles. i love some of the ones pictured here!

I love the mac gift card idea I love Mac but I also love the third clutch :)

All of the ideas are great! Here are my thoughts in order of "love it" rating: (lol)

1st Place- I love that bracelet! If you can really buy that particular bracelet, I say go for it. That's definitely my favorite idea.
2nd Place- MAC giftcards, cosmetic case, and mirror. I would recommend getting a small purse size cosmetic case. Also, if you go this route, maybe personalize either the cosmetic case or the mirror, but not both. You don't want monogram overkill. (i know I can't help it. I love monograms!)
3rd Place- The cluctches are cute (I especially like the last one) but it is difficult to know if it will be used again unless you get a plain color like black or silver.

SN: You may be able to find Coach wristlets at a Coach outlet store. They have great deals & sometimes offer 20% off coupons.

Thanks girls. I was thinking all silver clutches - forgot to mention that - these were just some styles I liked.

Honeybee, I can get that exact bracelet. Only issue is not sure if it will match everyone's outfits on the wedding day.. and who knows if they'd like it to wear it later. And you're so right about monogram overkill lol. And purse size cosmetic case is a good idea too.

The outlet stores do usually have them - but I haven't seen 5 I liked. :(

You found so many cute things!! I think no matter what you choose...it will be reusable!!

ummm.. I totally want to be your bridesmaid :) lol. these are all fantastic choices!!!

I love the bracelet!Love Love Love

But .. ever girl loves a nice clutch right? I would do the last pictured clutch- because the tiny bit of purple matches your wedding but the other colors make it versatile for the ladies.. and I would put the mirror with the light..( because thats genius!!) and maybe a mac lipstick/gloss??

But then it all depends on what you are wanting to spend??

Bottomline - all of your choices are great and any bridesmaid would be happy to receive any of it I am sure!

Hee hee thanks blkbutterfly and netter!

netter honey, you should be my BM and you are an honorary - you always help me soooo much! :)

Love the bracelets and the clutch.

i love all the clutches.

Thanks girls, maybe we'll stick to a silver clutch for each, and then a monogrammed mirror and a MAC gloss or gift card.

I really like the mirror and mac item and the last clutch...very funky, good luck girlie!

i love the clutches!!!

Thanks girls :)

I think the clutch wins! Now I just gotta pick a clutch.

Uh... can I be your BM? ; )

All of these options are great! Love your idea to do a clutch and a Mac Gift Card or gloss!

You sure can banana!! You practically inspired my entire ceremony and have helped through the entire process too! :)

I love gorgeous6's idea of making all you girls honorary BMs and seriously if I ever win a lottery, you all get clutches LOLOL

I am divided between the first and the second idea. I loved all!
Good luck and
Happy Planning!

Thanks regilele! I'll let you girls know what I finalize :)

So fun to look at all of the large pics now that you are versed on the uploads :) (lol).

I like all of the ideas. I think my fave is a clutch with a MAC gift card. I really love the last silver clutch with the ruffles. I'm doing something similar...probably a clutch and I got them each a MAC lipgloss compact thing.

Yay...keep us updated on final choices.

Hee hee - yes I put my new photo pasting expertise to use right away! :)

Thanks hon! I like that one the most too. Only concern I had was not sure what saris the girls are wearing and if the ruffles would coordinate... so I was looking at plainer clutches for that reason. :)

Great choices!!!

My 1st pick would be for idea#2. A close 2nd would be the clutches.

The 2nd clutch is sooo adorable! However, in the scheme of things I feel that the MAC gift card would probably be more appreciated. :)

Thanks girls!!!!! I have to wait since they're kinda wearing different outfits so that I pick the right clutch... or I can just do the cosmetic bags now.. we'll see!
