Bridesmaid Beach Bags

The Vera Bradley Outlet was having an AMAZING sale today and they had these really nice and pretty beach bags on the cheap, they also just happened to be in my wedding colors so I bought them for my BMs. I also bought matching tumblers and the towels at the retail stores are on sale also so I am planning on getting those as well as matching flip flops. I was just wondering if anyone had any other suggestions of what could go inside. What I have gotten so far is as "beachy" as I want it to go, it is a destination wedding at a beach so I figured a few beach items would be nice. I am planning on using the bag as more of a gift bag than as the actual gift so I wanted some ideas for what you might like if you were a BM.

    Shop for each girl like it's their birthday.  You don't need to get each BM the exact same thing.  If you have a friend who loves her wine - get her a bottle.  Have a friend who loves coffee - get her a starbucks gift card.

    Ya that is my plan. I don't really want things to match anyway, the bags don't they are two different prints one mainly blue and one mainly red. Just wanted to know if anyone had any unique suggestions or what they might like to find in the bag. I also only have 2 BMs so I have a higher budget for gifts so I am hoping to find some unique things to put in.

    Do your friends like Vera Bradley? That's a huge gift to be something they don't like.  

    I would like a gift that was tailored to me. Not to the theme or the colors of your wedding.  Something I would actually use.

    @mysticl Yes that is definitely something I thought of before I bought them.  My BMs and I all share a serious obsession with VB and amazingly this bag, tumbler, and towel are all things that they don't have so it worked out perfectly.

    Wine is always a great gift for a wine wino or a funky vase for someone into decorating. My girls also got something different on top of their BM jewelry. For the girls, there was a pearl bracelet, a stained glass window hanging, a panda sponsorship (from the zoo), booze and shot glass set, and a turqoise necklace.
