Old, New, Borrowed, Blue

I’m not into traditional weddings for myself (obviously), but there are two traditional things I love and I’m doing. One is a plain gold wedding band. I got my white gold beauty a few days ago, and it’s SO PERFECT. It sits nicely beside my solitaire. The other tradition I choose to uphold is “Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue.” I can’t explain why, but I just like the sentiment. I’m getting married tomorrow and I only have these four things halfway covered!
Something Old – I have known since I was a little girl that I would wear my grandmother’s pearls on my wedding day. I wear them all the time as it is, and tomorrow will be no different. These pearls were worn to my mom’s senior prom and in a cousin’s Junior Miss pageant.
Something New – Obviously, I bought all new clothes for this occasion, so there ya go.
Something Borrowed – ? I will probably see what I can pull out of my mom’s jewelry box. If you know my mom, you’re wishing me good luck right now.
Something Blue – ? This one really has me at a loss! I would wear blue undies, but I have to wear my control tops under my body-hugging dress. Ha. I’m sure I can find something blue somewhere. I just really need to start looking. I have less than 24 hours.
Anyone have any ideas for me?

I love my family, hobbies, friends, martinis, houndstooth, and Audrey Hepburn. My kids are my world but I'm trying to figure out who I am besides a mother. This should be interesting...
Go get one of those blue Dr Scholls gel inserts for your high heel!! They are painful usually anyway.. Kill two birds with one stone (that’s a horrible saying). Btw, so excited for you guys!! Congrats! You should get Nick one of those disposable cameras and let him take some pictures.. You could see the wedding through his eyes! I know someone who did that, they laughed so hard when they saw the pictures he’d gotten.
LOVE the idea for inserts!! I just might do that!
I would definitely do that with Nick, except he won’t be there. It’s just the two of us!
Ohhhhh I see! Well that’s good then, some time just for yourselves on one of the biggest days of your lives, good thinkin! I hope its awesome for you guys, you deserve it!! Have a blast tomorrow! I’m sending a big hug your way.
I hope you found what you needed! I went for blue panties and my bestie went for a blue garter. : )
