‘Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue, wear a Sixpence in your shoe’
Whilst we’re all for our brides picking and choosing what wedding traditions they keep and which they pass on, we do love this age old English tradition of good luck charms for the bride.
Something old represents continuity; something new offers optimism for the future; something borrowed symbolises borrowed happiness; something blue stands for purity, love, and fidelity; and a sixpence in your shoe is a wish for good fortune and prosperity. You can expect to receive some of these little tokens of love from your friends and family, although that’s not to say you can’t choose them yourself – with our help of course!
Today we’ve been having a look at the host of independent sellers on Etsy for what blue beauties they have to offer – the answer is a lot! To make life a little easier for you we’ve chosen 19 of our favourite something blue trinkets.
