Pretty (ain't nothin' wrong with that)

I wonder if I could pull off this look?

Perhaps as the 'fascinator' on a birdcage veil? It's so lovely and delicate, as is everything at one of my top 10 Etsy shops Portobello. All of their wares are beautiful, original and vintage inspired. Some are even made of genuine high-end vintage pieces. Definitely drool worthy.

... and something blue

In case your right hand is jealous, just bedazzle it with one of these suckers from Birks:




from top:
heart shaped 3.5 carat aquamarine and diamond ring in 18K white gold
8mmx6mm oval cut blue topaz in 18K yellow gold
1.37 carat sapphire with a halo of micro pave diamonds set in 18k white gold

"Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue, and a sixpence in your shoe" is one of my favourite wedding traditions. I love the idea of being mindful of something old from your life before marriage, welcoming the new, borrowing the luck from a happily married woman you love, and carrying something blue (to remind yourself of being virtuous. ha! we all know what THAT one means!)
And a sixpence in your shoe: excellent if you need to stop and make a call in a Dickensian phone booth? But seriously, a symbol of monetary fortune is not a bad thing to start out your marriage with.
