Top 10 Tuesday - 10 "Something Blue"s

 

"Something old, something new, something borrowed, and something blue." Why blue? Why not yellow? Why not pink? What is so wrong with aubergine? OH the other colors must feel slighted. But blue it must be - you know, it's tradition and such.

We have a list of the Top 10 "Something Blue"s for the bridesmaids to offer the bride. We're such conformists.

Top 10 Something Blues:

1) Garter - this is an easy one - tried and tested, but is anyone still wearing these?

2) Ribbon - Martha Stewart recommends discreetly pinning a blue ribbon to the inside of the bride's dress. She probably doesn't mean this kind, but we think it's far more entertaining:

3) Cosabella Thong - Slutty! Racy! And these really are very comfortable.

 


 

4) A lock of hair from Grandma - that Blue Rinse will really come in handy!

5) A cornflower - When Napoleon forced Queen Louise of Prussia from Berlin, she hid her children in a cornfield and kept them entertained and quiet by weaving wreaths of cornflowers. One of her children, Wilheim, later became the emperor of Germany. Remembering his mother's bravery, he made the cornflower a national emblem of unity. Get it? UNITY? MARRIAGE? We're all over this stuff.

6) Sapphire earrings - and our next question is "Will you be in OUR weddings?"

7) Bruise - Yep, it was a rough Bachelorette party. The bride bumped into the pool table, and her bruise is black and blue (and little yellow). It counts!

8) The bride's tongue - give her one of these before the ceremony

9) Pedicure - OPI Russian Navy (My mom hates this color - I'm wearing it on my toes right now)

or really easy (and we love easy)

10) MAC Prussian Blue eyeliner. Subtle, no? No. But then, the bride isn't supposed to be subtle. It's her day!

Many happy congratulations, and we're going to need our "Something Borrowed"s back soon!
