Something Old, Something New...

Something Borrowed and Something Blue. For my old I will have my dad's ring pinned in my dress. My dress is the new and my personalized undies are my blue. I don't have anything borrowed at this point. What are your items?

    Something old and borrowed will be my mom's rosary that she keeps in her purse, it will be wrapped around the handle of my bouquet, PIB under flowers.  And my something new is my dress and my shoes are also new and blue.  Although my mom thinks it is so tacky that I am wearing blue shoes, she makes comments about it constantly.  She knows I'm not changing my mind about it, so she just laughs and snickers.
