I've been a bridesmaid 4 times (ugh and I'm only 24!). I've received a monogrammed silver compact mirror, a picture frame in the wedding colors originally holding a picture of me and the bride from when we went to a baseball game but intended to hold a picture of us taken at the wedding, a wristlet from coach, and earrings from ross-simons. I use the coach wristlet every day, either as a wallet inside my purse or as a purse on its own, and it's held up amazingly well. That being said, my aunt works for coach and I know my SIL got them all at discount prices. However, if you are only buying one, it might be worth it. You can buy one that coordinates with the purse she already has. I also love the picture frame I got, and I ended up leaving the original photo in (mostly because I haven't gotten around to putting in one from the wedding, which was in july 2002 ... ooops ...). The earrings were sweet and I wore them in the wedding but haven't worn them much since, mostly because I wear the same jewelry every day of my life. The silver compact is currently tarnishing in my bedroom dresser drawer at my parents' house. It was a nice gift but not very practical, a little too dressy an item to just throw in my bag. Might be nice to take along in my evening bag to formal events, though. Anyway, that's all I got. I'm sure you'll choose something lovely.
