Bride squad bags, jewelry and hair accessories

The lettered makeup bag has quietly taken this shelf over. Close to a third of what stands here is one, and the reason is that it solves the proposal gift and the toiletry bag in one object: it has the person's initial on it, so it works as a named present, and it holds what a person actually needs for two nights away. Check the size before you buy nine of them, because a bag cut for a lipstick and a bag cut for a full wash kit look identical in a photograph. The multipacks behave differently from the single pieces. Where a pack here prints a count, eight is the middle of it, and a pack here is as often a lettered bag as it is a handful of hair ties, so a single price on this shelf can mean one bag or thirty pins. The jewelry is the piece worn longest without coming off, which is the one thing worth thinking about: anything that sits against skin for two days is worth reading the material line on, and the pieces that name a metal are the ones to prefer over those that name only a colour.

Everything on this shelf is one of makeup bag, hair tie, ring, bracelet or necklace, and every card in the Bride Squad catalogue carries the price, the pack count and the widest measurement, so the sums are done before you order.
