ANTHROPOLOGIE: For the Gift Giver

If you're a "girl meets home" kind of a gal, you might find yourself shopping for bridal shower and wedding gifts this time of year. I tend to stick to the bride's registry for most of my gift giving (ask and ye shall receive), but for bridal showers I like to supplement a smaller registry item with something flirty and fun. My go to store: ANTHROPOLOGIE.

My favorite bridal shower gift for a bride-to-be has to be an apron from Anthropologie. What nearly-wed doesn't need a cute accessory for the kitchen? Pair a full or half apron with a few cook's tools; spatulas (in a coordinating color), rolling pins, cookies sheets, etc. That way your friend can look the part as she makes something sweet for her husband, or herself (in most cases). Here are a few of my favorites:

Sunny Rose Apron, $32

3-D Toile Half Apron, $28

And, depending upon which apron you pick, you might find a coordinating oven mitt or pot holder... so cute!

Maude Oven Mitt, $12

And these Florist Measuring Cups ,$36 are too pretty to keep in a drawer... any bride would adore a set of her own!
So future brides, be prepared... chances are if I'm at your shower, you'll be opening up one of these beauties! Need more bridal gift ideas?... let me know and I'll see what I can do to help!
