For the Bridesmaids, I purchased black leather fold-over clutches from Coach (yes, it was a bit of a Coach-fest at our rehearsal dinner, but they make such classic pieces, I couldn't resist sharing the love). I wish I had gotten one for myself! I love the pink lining inside! The girls also got black pashminas and vintage-inspired necklaces from Monet with matching stud earrings. The jewelry featured black stones encircled with crystals and an adjustable closure. They were perfect for completing their wedding day look. And, unlike their bridesmaids gowns - they can wear the jewelry again! Ok, all the girls have said they want to wear their gowns again - they just have to find excuses! Here is a photo of the jewelry in action on the day of (from Lisa Rigby):
The only thing I regret about the bridal party gifts was not taking a photo of everything wrapped up! I used black damask, orange, and black striped wrapping paper on everything and it all looked so adorable! For those that don't know me - admittedly I have a gift-wrapping problem. DH had to pull me away from the wrapping displays at the Container Store this weekend... it was rather sad.

Love the gifts! Our RD was also somewhat riddled by Coach merchandise, but you are right, most of their non-logo stuff is timeless and good quality.
