Nobody really needs a fancy pen with their initial on it, or a piece of jewelry with someone else's wedding date engraved on it. So how about a bridesmaid gift that's actually useful, not only on the day of the wedding but for long after? Check out Plum Pretty Sugar Loungerie, a line of soft robes, camis and pants that are great for donning during the whole hair-and-makeup process of getting ready, as well as when you're just lounging around the apartment and getting ready to fall asleep in front of the TV. The pretty prints are feminine without going over-the-top-frou-frou, and prices are somewhat friendly—around $80 to $120 for a giftable set. Founded right here in SoCal by UK-native Charlotte Mills, Plum Pretty Sugar's pieces are breezy, comfortable, machine-washable cotton voile that's perfect for years of wear.
Unlike that bridesmaid dress you're forcing her to wear...
