    A lululemon hooded zip sweatshirt w/ your name embroidered on the inside and my wedding date? Or just your name embroidered on the inside?

    I am really struggling with my bm gifts. I live in Seattle and lululemon is huge here. I have a total of five bm’s. Three are my sisters and two are my bff’s.  I know my sisters will love them because they like them already and would be stoked to have another one, lol  For some reason there is something in my head telling me that my bff’s are expecting more…..

    What do you girls think? 

    EDIT: i realize my wedding date would be a bit narcissistic of me, haahaahaaa 

    EDIT II: all embroidery would be on the inside of hoody not the outside.

    I think they're cute...and I would embroider just their names. And there's isn't a set standard for what is/isn't "enough." If you like it, go with it!

    I would also just go for their names. And yes, I think that's cute, and something they can wear all the time.

    Maybe name embroidered, maybe just plain. Not sure if it's just me, but as much as I love my friends, I wouldn't really want their wedding date on my clothing... Looks like a great hoodie, though--now I want one for myself!

    I would LOVE this gift!  Lululemon is really big in Vegas too.  I agree that you should skip the wedding date, but their names inside would be a nice touch.  What color(s) are you going to get?

    I think it's a GREAT idea, and I would love to receive a gift like that. I would have the names embroidered, but not the date.

    Adorable! I think your bms would love them.  But I guess I'm out of the loop because I've never heard of lulemon before--oops!

    In terms of personalizing them, I would just do names.  If you want to make it a little more special to your wedding day though, you could do them in your wedding colors.

    I think it sounds really cute, but won't the back of the embroidery show through on the front if you get it on the inside?

    @madswan - - i thought about that too, my solution is to have the names abroidered on the lower inside right/left corner - that way the embroidery will show on the inside of the outter pocket!  Does that make sense?

    That's one expensive hoodie, but it's very cool and very stylish. I agree with the other bees leave the wedding date out of it. I think their names would be cool on embroidered on the outside.

    I would LOOOOOVE this gift! I have that hoodie and wear it almost every day!

    I don't think you need to do any embroidery. The hoodies are fantastic enough as is.

    @D.Marie...it's $98 because it's worth it! Lululemon clothes are seriously so amazing and comfortable, and make everyone look good!

    My sister lives in Chicago and has been raving about that store. WE have a TINY one in STL and i'm not very impressed. however i do think the hoodies are really cute. I don't really get hte point of putting their names inside. No one would ever see it so why spend the money to even do that?

    Yes, I love this idea too!  And really, there's no standard for "enough".  It's just something to show your appreciate for all that they're doing for you, you know?  It's not like you have to meet a dollar amount.
