Clutches: Good BM gift? Bad BM gift?

I have no idea what to get my girls... I was debating maybe getting each of them a silk clutch, in a color that they like, and then getting them each a piece of jewelry (again, just something they'll like, not matching the wedding).  But I can't think of a time I've ever used a clutch, unless I was going to someone's wedding and needed one to match my dress.  But clutches seem to be popular, at least online.

What do you think?  Is a clutch the sort of thing you'd actually use and appreciate everyday?  Or is this a lousy idea?

On a related note... am I expected to buy their jewelry for the wedding day?  Are they going to be expecting me to give them something to wear then?  I've only been in one wedding and she didn't give us jewelry, but I know a lot of brides do.

    I bought my girls Coach wristlets - not sure if this is what you mean by a clutch (I typically think of a clutch as a small purse with no straps).  Depends on the girl whether they'd  like them or not, though.  I like a wristlet because I have less chance of losing it since it's strapped to my wrist and nice in situations where you don't want to carry a full purse (night out, vacation, etc.)

    For my bridesmaids, I am having glasses etched with their name and our wedding date as a memento, having tote bags made (my bridesmaids would get more use out of that), and giving them a pair of cute flip-flops that they can choose to wear at the reception if they want.
    I'm having my bridesmaids make their own hairpieces and jewelry-I'm providing the supplies. I don't really have the money to buy them all jewelry and they really don't have the money either. The most expensive thing they've had to buy was their dress (150.00), they can wear any pair of silver sandals they want as long as its not flip-flops, and hair/make-up getting professionally done is optional. Its really on what you think your bridesmaids will use....I just chose to do something for memory, that they would use, and something fun :)
