OK - my wedding colors are sage and ivory and I was overjoyed when I found these. The question is...which ones???? If you guys looooove the shoebags then I think I can swing it ($39.95 each) but I'd really rather get them the large cosmetic bags (8 x 11 inches in size! That seems large right?)...but I love everything on this page...

pls take a look and let me know what you think. THey are also getting silver engraved compact mirrors in these little beaded sachets....

Rachel: I love the cosmetic bag. I love the site too. I purchased my BM and GM cards from them. Also, let me tell you guys that Monqiue (the owner and artist of Frills and Yummies) is becoming a vendor on here.

oooh. good site, rach. I'm glad I didn't know about that site b/f I got married ... I'd have spent a fortune! I love the makeup bags & the idea of getting them in your colors!

Another vote for the makeup bags - they're adorable! Great site too, btw...someone posted it not too long ago and I visited it then. Too many great goodies!!!

Rachel, I like some of the other bags more, the chick totes collection. But I am biased, b/c I don't use a cosmetic bag... If your girls use them, then I like them, b/c they look nice.

I like the make-up bag.

Thanks Alina - the chick totes are a little too cartoonish for me...they're cute but not my speed.

Ok next vote: sage and ivory or one of the other colors? I do like the merlot and the sapphire as well.....maybe mix them up? Problem is I don't know which colors to give which BMs. Plus, I'd like to give the MOH a little something extra....what else do you guys like on that page? The jewelry case?

Rachel, I like merlot color more than sage. Is there a certain color that your bm's tend to gravitate to with their clothing? That's usually a good indicator of what they like.

Since you're getting make up bags, what about a GC to their favorite cosmetic line? Or if you don't like the idea of GC, perhaps a color pallette of eyeshades?

Ah yes, I thought it was you MarcellaBella - just wasn't positive. Thanks!

Marcella - it's the best wedding website so far. It has a certain level of...sophistication? that I was looking for...some of the other ones out there are so cheesy and tacky, in my opinion. THis was like a life-saver BM gift-wise.
