I voted for the square box, I think it's more elegant. I also would never use a compact.
All three are beautiful though!

You know, I'm not a compact kind of person, but I have lately been faced with a number of times I wished I had a mirror... so I voted for the compact. I think even for people who don't usually use them, they might carry it around since they have it. And even if they don't, it takes up less space than the other two (i.e. less area you have to dust  )

I chose the heart shaped box because you can keep stuff in it.
The trinket box seemed too small to fit anything and i know personally I wouldnt use the mirror because i carry my powder around which has a mirror already.

Hmmmmm youve got me thinking now! Especially since one of the girls is a big lezza (not literally big, we call here 'The big lezza') and she so wouldnt be into a heart-shaped box or a compact!

I picked the compact 1. because you seem to be leaning toward it, and I figure you know your girls better than me-hehe and 2. because I was looking for a stinkin mirror this weekend in my purse and would have loved to have one!!!

Same situation for me! we were at a bar and I couldnt see in the mirror in the bathroom but Jake had told me there was something on my face. Needless to say I made Jake pull the mom move and lick his finger and get it off.
But my second choice would be the square box! I think it is elegant and beautiful. Maybe can you personalize that part for each girl give them the box or the compact?

My vote is for the compact. 1. because everyone could use a compact and none of us ever seem to have one when the need arises. 2. I have the heart shaped box. and although it is lovely...it really can not hold much. I use it on top of my entertainment center to toss my earrings in when I'm to lazy to walk r4 feet to the bedroom and toss them in ANOTHER crystal dish from another wedding. Never have gotten the compact.

I voted for the compact because it would be nice to have it around unless you need a mirror, and it is smaller and takes up less space than the other two.
I also like the square shaped box too. It would be a good little ring box for next to the sink.
However I have one of those boxes and I never really use it, I do use a compact however if I need a quick mirror.

I would prefer the compact. I don't know for sure how much I'd use it, but I'd definitely use it more than a trinket box. I think all of the options are pretty.

I voted for the compact. A friend gave me one for Christmas one year with my initials on it and I love having it in my purse.
IMO, those trinket boxes sit around and get dusty and discolored.

Thanks guys you have been a big help!! I am going to go with the compact, they are really useful.
I'll get their first name engraved on them and although my lesbian bridesmaid might pretend she wont use it - she will!

Well, I'm after the fact, but I vote for the square box. I don't use compacts, and I hate hearts.  But obviously, that's just my preference!

I like the square one better, definitely not the heart one. Oh, just read further, guess I am a little late on this one....
