No I found it online...I just googled "k-state garters", saw that they actually made them, and ended up finding them at a local novelty sports store.
But now I'm wondering if you can even wear a garter with Spanx... :P Maybe by October I'll be thin enough I won't have to wear my super Spanx! (I love the one that goes up to your bra line and down to mid thigh- helps with thigh chafe- aka chub rub)

haha, yeah not sure how a garter would look with Spanx, but you could probably just hike up the spanx and get at pic of the garter and do it that way:) I haven't even thought about what I'll wear under my dress yet!

They are! They had several cute 'brideish' flip flops that I loved. It was hard to choose. Normally I am not a JCrew fan...most of my clothing money goes to express.
I just bought a super cheap one with a red ribbon from Michaels. I sure as hell wore my spanx with it But I didn't take a picture so I guess it didn't matter!
For the record, I thought it was going to be super annoying and falling down or itching, but it was not at all. I forgot about it until the DJ announced it was time to throw it lol.

You are lucky, I know it is just me being self conscious, but I have NEVER dressed up or done anything sexy. His mom (I know weird) bought me a little babydoll type thing that I wore on my wedding night and he loved it, but I felt so weird!!! I know that my H would love it, but I just feel kind of stupid haha. Mostly, he just likes it when I dress up to go out, or wear tight pants, or naked. He has a very short attention span, but if I walked out in nothing but a garter, he would not see the garter. LOL tmi??

I wasn't going to wear one, but I get one with my package. I have no idea what it will look like. I won't be throwing it or anything so it will just be for FI.

Express was totally my go to store, but now that my work moved Downtown Mpls. and I'm connected to the skyway which has a Macy's and a discount Saks store, I find myself at those places way more than I should be!! I'd be way screwed if there was an Express there.
My sister's garter is sitting around her cake topper on a shelf. It was a Miami Dolphins because SHE is a fan. It never occurred to us that we should buy her DH's team. We bought her team. If I was to get one as a gift, it better sure as hell be the UCLA Bruins. It's on MY leg.
I don't get married often, but when I do, I do it in Las Vegas.

Re: I'm bored with the board:) Show me your garters (if you are wearing one)
We're not doing a garter toss, so I figured it would just be bulky or slide off and annoy me.

My garter is made with logo fabric/lace from my FI's alma mater (Kansas State). It's a surprise for him.

I wish my legs looked like that!!!
But yours is really cute!! Etsy Im guessing ?

Yep Etsy:) I looked through a ton of them trying to find one in that style that wasn't ridiculously expensive like some of them are, the seller has a ton of other cute ones too, debating on getting the blue one for a something blue, but probably stick to this one.

@aegrish - That will be a cute surprise! On the legs - well I guess that's why they're models:)
My garter will be my something blue with my FI's favorite football team and baseball team.....NY Giants & NY Mets
But now I'm wondering if you can even wear a garter with Spanx... :P

FI is a huge Vikings fan so I got this from Etsy seller gartersbykristi. He's gonna love it.
