35 more days...

"Something old, something new
Something borrowed, something blue
And a silver sixpence in her shoe"

Okies, I'm stumped! I definitely do not have any of all those!!! *tearing hair out*
I gotta have all four items!
Gotta calm down and think properly... Hmmm

Something old (continuity with the bride's family and the past)
Was going through my mother's boxes of  precious scrap cloth (she used to be a seamstress) but I just can't find anything to use for my hand bouquet. I wonder what else is old enough that I could use for my solemnization. My shoes are old though... 

Something new (optimism and hope for the new life ahead)
Eh, this is easy. My gown is new. So is my hairpiece! (I will post pictures of the hairpiece once I received it from Melinda. I think I'm gonna get new lingerie as well.

Something borrowed (from a happily married family member or friend, whose good fortune supposedly will carry over to me! : P )
I have no idea on what items my sister-in-law has, or my BFF has... *scratches head*

Something blue (in ancient Roman times, brides wore blue to symbolize love, modesty and fidelity. Blue was a popular color then)
Ditto as above, NO IDEAS!

I'm like so panicky now. My budget is tight as it is and I really do not want to get stuff unnecessarily. Anyone has ideas for me? : ((
