I don't have anything borrowed

My mom had really expensive jewelry years ago and when my parents were living in the city, their apartment was buglarized and they stole all of it. She has never replaced it. We went through the jewelry she has and nothing goes with my dress. We talked to my aunt (her sister and my God mother) and she is sending pictures of stuff she has, but from what she said she doesn't have anything either. It doesn't look like I'll have anything borrowed for my wedding day

Re: I don't have anything borrowed

Re: I don't have anything borrowed

What about borrowing:

1. A shall or pashmina
2. A pocketbook/clutch for the day of
3. Hair pins from someone
4. A read someone a penny can be borrowed and placed in the left shoe for good luck but you MUST return it.

Ill keep thinking.

Re: I don't have anything borrowed

Aw I really thought I wouldn't have anything borrowed either, but then my MOH surprised me with a necklace ((that I shoved in my dress, cause I already had one, and that one didn't match lol)) but maybe ask your BMs if they have something you can borrow? It doesn't have to be jewelry!

Borrow a broach and pin it on the inside of your gown or to your bok.

Humm perfume.. that is a good idea. But how do you give it back? But I guess it is still borrowing! I might have to resort to that! Thanks!!

Re: I don't have anything borrowed

what about a tiara, ring, earings, stockings a watch. even something that you can carry in your bag. I am thinking of borrowing my fsil's tiara. she was going to lend me the veil, but I already bought one. I am probably going to borrow my sister's jewerly too.
