Something Borrowed

I'm not sure if you've heard of Bag Borrow or Steal, but it's a company that was started so fashion crazy ladies who can't afford Gucci or YSL purses could enjoy them, for a week at a time. Now there's Avelle, which is essentially the same thing, but they have more than bags. They have Kenneth Jay Lane earrings that I might consider for my something borrowed. It makes me think of stars renting jewels for the Oscars, and that makes me feel very glamourous. There is a yearly membership fee of $60, which is being turned into a rental credit right now. Not that bad, but kind of a bummer after the special ends.

Now that I'm thinking about it I'm not sure how I'm doing with my lucky wedding items.

Something Old: My dress? It's from a 2008 show, does that count?

Something New: My shoes, or maybe my veil when I get one.

Something Borrowed: Possibly my earrings, but otherwise I got nothing. I would borrow earrings from my mom but I'm picky since they'll be the only jewelry I'll wear (besides me ring of course!)

Something Blue: Since I don't want to wear or toss a garter I'm probably going to get some cute blue undies. I've also seen people paint their shoe soles sky blue which is a cute idea.

All in all, not doing so well! Haha! Well, the final part of the rhyme that most people forget is "and a half-penny for your shoe" and my grandmom has been saving one for me since I was a baby. However, I might have to tape it since they're open-toed. Oh wait, I forgot about my vintage purse! Something old! Maybe I'll borrow someone's blue undies- two birds with one stone. Not really, that would be super gross.

I have to wait to use J's laptop to upload photos, but I have pictures of the card birdcage and the dress. Yes, we finally went to the Butter by Nadia store! I'll post on that soon.
