Something new is generally the easiest part to uphold in the tradition. So why not go with every bride’s favorite and grab a brand new pair of sparkly shoes. Adding a little new shoe bling is always a great idea. Go ahead and treat yourself to the best gift of all. New shoes!!!

Instead of borrowing a piece of jewelry or a little trinket you have to stuff away under your dress. Borrow a brooch from a close family member and add it to your bouquet. Not only is this a beautiful addition to your bouquet, borrowing it from a family member adds the perfect sentimental touch.

Now, are you fully committed to this tradition? You may have to be to pull off the "something blue". Go for it! Add a blue fascinator to your look to add a bold pop of color. Or, if you are a daring high fashion bride go for a completely blue look with a blue veil, dress and gloves. This look certainly puts a whole new meaning to something blue. Will you stay true to this tradition?
