Question for 18-20 year old girls

[madcam]

Hello....not a teen but stepmom to two girls ages 18 and 20. I am trying to figure out what to buy for them on our trip to Disney in 2 weeks. They are not going with us but I wanted to bring them back something good. What would you like your parents to bring back for you? Thanks for any help you can give me!!

Jewlerry, something fun from Main Street (maybe the blown glass?), anything princessy (a princess hat, pin, ect...), pirate mickey ears, a night gown t-shirt (they have one with minnie that smells like coffee!!), mug, travel mug, and coffee.

Ill keep thinking...

Yeah Jewllery's a great idea!
Or a nice purse maybe. THat's what I buy when I go.
Maybe steer away from clothes hough, unless you find somethin really nice, or that would suit their style. THere's alot of t-shirts @ WDW, and if that's not their style than they'll probably never wear them. I've got t-shirts I bought @ WDW and I wore them when I was there and that was all.

Maybe you could get something from World Showcase if they are particularly interested in any of the countries/cultures there. I know I LOOOOVE shopping in the France Pavillion when I'm there.

Or maybe a pictures frame or snow globe or jewllery box type thing. I like the have little Disney keepsakes like that around my room.
Especially picture frames!

Hope that helps!

I echo everyone else's comments...

and add one of my own...
There are some really cute shirts in World of Disney for older teen girls. I got one this summer that had "Happily Ever After" on it, so look there.

hmmmm
it really depends if they are big on disney.
I would suggest something for their room, like a picture frame or something. My mom bought me back a princess pillow for mine and a Pirates of the Carrabbean top, but she knows i LOVE Johnny Depp.

Jewelery would be good, or if you go to Epcot, the shopping place in China had loads of really nice stuff with an oriental theme.

A little mickey or minnie toy or maybe their favorite character, just to make it a bit more personal.

Personally, i would like anything from disney

My Mom gave me that for my sister.

A lot of the jewelry fro Disney is really cheese though, so beware of that. I agree on the picture frame, those are always nice. Maybe even a stuffed animal of their favorite character and candy is always a plus.

I am 19 and personally a huge pin collector, so maybe a personalized starting set as a keepsake.
I LOVE my Disney purses because they are understated and couture looking but still show my obsession with The World.
And yes, if you look in the right shops (try Mickey's something or another) across the corner of Sunset Boulevard in MGM.
Also, there is a great Teen-designed area for really hip (and again, understated) clothing in the World of Disney store at Downtown Disney.

I second the jewelry idea, depending on their tastes and your budget. My daughter, her best friend and I all did the pick-a-pearl in the Japan shop at Epcot's world showcase. The pearl itself is about $15, then you can have it set in a ring, necklace, or earrings (if you get two in the pearl, or buy an extra one). The ring settings the girls picked were about $35 each, so for about $50 each they had a beautiful souvenir that they'd actually wear after the trip that reminded them of Disney but wasn't "uncool". There are also some nice pendant settings if your stepdaughters aren't ring wearers. There's a long post somewhere on the boards here about this if you want more information on it -- that's where I got the idea, and it was one of the highlights of the trip for the girls.

Or pick out a pearl from the World Showcase and set it in a necklace, or ring, or something nice!!
