Wedding DIY: Stockings

As the days to the wedding have been creeping closer and closer I’ve started thinking more about what I’m going to be wearing other than my wedding dress on The Day Of. Never mind that it hasn’t even remotely hit me that I’m going to be a Mrs. as of next Saturday.

Would I wear stockings? Would I just go with the shoes and call it a day? When we were down in the USA a few weeks ago I couldn’t help but sneak into Victoria’s Secret. I so wish we had one in my city! I had one purpose in mind: garter and stockings. I came out with a bit of a haul…but when I got home a full 4 hours away from Victoria’s Secret I realized that I had bought stay up stockings instead of the ones with a garter attachments!!

CURSES!!!

Being a resourceful kid, I ran into my craft room and found some blue ribbon, a needle and thread. And I sat down to work.

Something Blue

I think they make a  really charming something blue.

Adding a little last minute drama, yesterday I had my first, and hopefully my last, allergic reaction. Something I had touched had me break into full body hives, forcing me to leave work and then return two hours later completely drugged. I was covered in red goosebumps from my torso all the way up my chest, neck and face. The drugs seem to have helped, but here’s hoping this gets in hand over the next couple days!

I could totally wear a white turtleneck under my dress. Figure skater chic is in, right? Right guys?
