Nifty Gifties

 I absolutely love to give gifts, so lately I’ve been thinking about what to get my girls to thank them for being so awesome.

First, I was thinking we all needed something cute to wear.

I know that some people hate them, but I love my Juicy tracksuits. Bonus on the fact that they zip up the front for maximum day-of getting ready efficiency! Thus, I was thinking a cute monogrammed hoodie (in navy, of course!) for each of my girls and a white one para me.

I’m thinking we all need Havaianas (the crystal ones, thank you very much) to go along with our little suits.

Moving on but keeping with the theme, I’m thinking of packing the loot up in a boat and tote bag from LL Bean (and again, perhaps one for the bride with her new initials)…

In a perfect world I’d also be able to hook them up with some pearl jewelry (I may be somewhat selfish in this one as I want them to rock the pearls on W day)…Nifty Gifties :  wedding bridesmaid gift san antonio Pearle

Lastly, I’d like to gift them with a certificate to have their floor length gowns hemmed off at the knee to up the re-wearability factor.

What creative gifts do you have in mind for your bridesmaids?

I absolutely love my Juicy suits as well, and Havaianas… they never leave my feet in the summer!!! Actually… who am I kidding, I wear them all year round :) hehe. I recently discovered the “slim” ones, and I love them so much more!

ooh I love havaianas, they are so comfy and last forever! I would love to get a pair of those from the bride! The little rhinestones would be a plus too, I might have to buy some of those for my bms too! Thanks for the idea!

I have like five juicy suits and I lovvve them. Where did you get your BMs so they will all be the same? I’ve thought about the same thing, but can’t find anywhere reasonable (I would have to buy 7 sets). Ideas?

fabulous gift ideas…. looks like you’re planning very simlar gifts to what I gave my gals… and BTW the sandals go over so well… especially since my BMs kicked off their heels & wore the sandal during the reception too! I got a deal on my girls’ sandals for $45 in comparison to the $180 that Havaianas run, they weren’t Havaianas brand but they were made with Swarovskis - so the quality was the just the same, just not the crazy mark up!

If anyone wants to know where to get them - message me & I’ll give you the info (since we’re not supposed to “plug” companies here)!
