    I hadn't really thought of it until I saw pictures of myself in my dress, but I think I'll just count my tattoo as my "something blue":

     Ta dah!

     

    What's your Something Blue? Are you participating in the tradition of Something Old, etc.?

    I had a topaz ring as my something blue.  It looked great in pictures!  But I don't really wear it now... it's kind of big, and I'm too lazy to get it sized down :(

    I had earrings that were pearls surrounded by sapphires- and I had sapphires on my ering- so I counted them as my something blue.

    my friend bought a blue handkerchief when she was in venice for her something blue, then couldn't find it come her wedding day.  so as a gift, she had it monogrammed with my maiden initials to be sewn into my dress, since it'll be the last time i'll use that monogram.

    I'm planning on either a blue dyed crinoline or blue shoes. I might do both, but I'm not sure if that would be overkill. Also planning on tucking a blue (maybe peacock) feather into my bouquet (and my mom's) in honor of the fact that we call each other mama bird & baby bird.

    Total cheese, I know. :)

    Your tatto is beautiful & unique!

    My brilliant BM came up with this idea for me: her tiffany charm bracelet!

    something blue & something new - she bought me the tiffany blue box charm
    something old & something borrowed - her bracelet she had for years

    I totally dig it :)

    I wear them from time to time again and always smile when I dig them out of the drawer.  (was that TMI?)  What's your Something Blue? :  wedding something blue tattoo something old something new something borrowed tradition Icon Redface

    Not at all! If a group of happy, soon-to-be wed bees can't talk about their panties, then who can?

    I'm loving the idea of the blue panties. :) I might add that to my blue-brigade, but then I might start looking like a smurf from the waist down!

    I forgot..I also had a blue garter on. oh and I had a pair of Victoria's Secret's 'sexy little bride' undies on :)

    Here's a picture of my bracelet I mentioned earlier. You can see the blue room on the side. Oh and the other charm has my MOH's initials, which was very meaningful for me.

    picture was taken by Sergio the photographer.

    I sewed little blue satin flowers to the ribbons on my headband and my friend gave me a little blue crystal heart that I will either sew into the lining of my dress or onto the ribbon around my flowers.

    The bottom of my Cynthia Rowley shoes is my something blue!  I loved them before I even knew about he blue bottom.  I'm also thinking about getting a tag with our monogram and the date in blue to sew into my dress.

    I'm lacing my burgandy Fluevogs with blue laces and then changing into some blue slippers.  Since blue is one of my wedding colors, it was easy to incorporate!

    I haven't decided yet, but I'm thinking I may go with either a blue flower in my hair or blue shoes... probably I'll go with the shoes.

    I love the idea of a blue crinny, but (not having chosen my dress yet) the styles I like don't have them!

    There are too many cute blue ideas! I love the idea of the blue dress!

    On another note of tradition - will anyone be having a sixpence in their shoe? Where do you find a sixpence? :)

    I like your unique idea of your blue tatoo. I am a SF Giants fan and my husband is a Dodgers fan so I wanted to wear a Dodgers garter for him, which happens to be blue too. It's the only time he got to see me wear a Dodgers item! He loved it!

    I love the tatoo! Both in general and as your something blue! My something blue will probably just be my sapphire promise ring. I switched it to my right hand when I got my engagement ring. Also, my wedding band has sapphires, so it fits. ^_^
