Bridesmaid Gifts

we got the groomsmen their gift - we got them the FLIP Ultra (is a mini video recorder thing, kind of like a digital camera but for taking video).....

now i have to figure out what to get the ladies!

i was thinking maybe something from tiffanys? but im not crazy about any of the jewelry i can afford - im looking to spend $100-$150 b/c i also want to help pay for hair/make up and im planning on getting them pashmina's and slippers, so really something at around $125 would be good....

any other suggestions?

i was thinking maybe something from coach?

anything else cute and trendy you can think of?

do they all have ipods? a shuffle would be a cute gift. or gift cards to vs or sephora tucked into a coach wristlet (hey i would LOVE that!)

i had this same issue! i wanted so bad to give really nice gifts they would use after the wedding but when it came down to it i couldnt figure out anything in my price range. lol

but pashimas are DEFINITELY a good idea! i went out 2 days before my wedding and bought each girl one from H&M ($9.90 each) and they were SO HAPPY to have something to keep them warm.

How about a Tiffany's Gift certificate? They package them in the lovely blue box

yeah i want to get them nice gifts, not anything cheezy - its like i really want to get them the type of gift you would want/get for your bday - like a real gift.....but i cant spend too much so its hard

are you near the Coach outlet? you can usually find something pretty substantial -- like a purse, rather than wristlet -- for that price and it's set up like a store so they would probably have enough for you to get everyone the same thing if that's what you wanted. they also have the accessories for much cheaper (think $12 for a keychain instead of $38)

tiffany pendants are nice too, maybe the elsa p ones with their first initial?

im not that close to the outlets but it might be worth checking out....where is it in LI?

i loved the initial necklaces but i think the price went up....i remember them being less expensive - they are on the website for 165 for the small and 195 for the medium - for some reason i could swear i saw them for closer to 100

There are new ones coming but I don't think they are open yet -- the only ones I know of are in Riverhead. I wanted to go out there and get purses for my girls but never had a chance --- it's also pretty far from me. Tiffany's prices have gone way up. It's pretty ridiculous actually because there are near-identical pieces out there (generally, not just the initial necklaces) for a fraction of the price if you like the style and aren't just looking to give 'something from Tiffany's'

Did you see the Round Tag Key Rings from Tiffany? They're SO cute and you can get them engraved! I think they're like $90.

i actually emailed my best friend pictures of some things from coach, swarovski and tiffanys and asked her if she liked any of it....i wish i could spend whatever i wanted on them i need to play lotto!

Haha. I know the feeling. I have 6 BM and I feel like I'm spending a small fortune on them. I can't post a pic, but, I have the 1/4' Nail Head Bangle from Coach in Silver. It doesn't look so hot on the website but, it's really nice and very versatile. I wear mine almost everyday. It might be something to check out if you're interested.

i had originally bought those for my girls but the bangle was a little big on me and 2 of my bridesmaids are like a size 2 and very petite so i was afraid it would be falling off of them..
