In the world of weddings, traditions will always play a role in shaping the celebration. Among these cherished traditions, the concept of ‘something blue’ is a charming and symbolic element that many brides still choose to incorporate through carefully chosen and unique accessories that not only pay homage to tradition but also add a unique touch to your special day.
Fall in love with our latest additions, discover our new something blue accessories from the collections:
The tradition of incorporating ‘something blue’ into a wedding day dates back to ancient times. The colour blue has long been associated with loyalty, fidelity and love, making it the perfect symbol for a couple embarking on a lifelong journey together. Incorporating ‘something blue’ is believed to bring good luck and blessings to the marriage.
‘Something blue’ often conjures up images of blue shoes, a blue garter or a blue bow hidden inside the lining of a wedding gown. There are many creative and unique ways to weave this tradition into your wedding look without overwhelming the rest of your chosen colour palette.
The addition of blue doesn’t need to be delicate. A classic pearl drop set of earrings can instantly transform with blue crystal details for a colour pop.
Adorn your bridal hair with a classic and chic bridal headpiece in timeless empire blue tones. These pieces will perfectly frame your updo or half up hairstyles and frame your wedding veil in the most beautiful way.

The phrase ‘something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue, and a sixpence in her shoe’ has been a long-standing tradition in weddings, symbolising good luck and prosperity for the bride. We delved into the origins of this wedding tradition and discovered that this tradition dates back to ancient times from ancient Rome to the Middle Ages, and is rooted in several cultures and customs. Blue has been long associated with purity, fidelity and love. All qualities that are ideal for a marriage. It was believed that the colour blue, particularly in the form of blue sapphires, would protect the bride from evil spirits.
While this tradition has ancient roots, modern brides have creative and beautiful ways to incorporate something blue into their wedding day ensemble. From exquisite blue bridal shoes to blue bridal clutches or blue wedding earrings, there are many fashion forward ways to pay homage to this tradition.
Subtle and chic, we love the idea of incorporating blue accents with pearl drop earrings. This classic combination with an elongated silhouette adds an elegant touch to your look and can be worn after the wedding day.
A fresh take on decadence, a bridal clutch adorned in blue accents is a unique and stylish way to make bridal opulence feel effortless. Perfect for storing your wedding day essentials, these clutch purses are customisable and can be modified to suit your wedding dress and bridal style.
In honour of the wedding tradition, we love to incorporate textured and nostalgic pieces into our bride’s bridal looks. Our favourite styles include the minimally chic with a nod to antiquity.Â

Easily one of the most loved wildflowers, there’s something endlessly inspiring by the majestic blue blooms that grow in the woods and English gardens in springtime. Rich in pollen and nectar, the bluebell flower has an elusive scent reminiscent of the hyacinth flower. It’s no wonder the bluebell is commonly used in bridal bouquets and corsages.
We believe in the language of flowers and the dewy bluebell speaks to everlasting love, humility and constancy.
We looked to this delightful blue flowering stem as the perfect source of inspiration for our latest ‘Something Blue’ hair pin set.
The rhyme that often comes to mind when planning your wedding is the age old, ‘Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue, a sixpence in your shoe’. While a coin in your shoe wouldn’t be too comfortable, your ‘something blue’ also doesn’t need to look or feel out of place with the rest of your bridal look.
For lovers for deeper shades of blue, there’s a number of styles in our ‘something blue’ accessories collection that feature beautiful shades of empire blue. Our ARTEMIS, MAYBELLE, FONTAINE and LADY GREY are some of our popular styles for brides seeking that subtle and sophisticated ‘something blue’.
For brides seeking a pale shade of blue, the powder blue tones of the BLUEBELLS hair pin set blends beautifully against all hair colours and ivory or white wedding gowns. In designing these pins, we fell in love with the mineral – almost misty – tone of the crystal beads. Subtle, sweet and romantic, this shade of pale blue is a perfect match to soft gold or silver wiring.
All styles in our collections are customisable to suit you. We love to style this set of two BLUEBELLS in multiples – think a set of four or six around a loose low set updo. For a look that’s more delicate and subtle, a set of two can be positioned to the side of a bun or half up hairstyle.
If you love this set, send us an email and can chat more about your bridal look.

We love how couples are redefining and personalising wedding traditions. It’s not uncommon to see brides skip the traditional bridal garter toss and instead choose to wear their garter for their wedding night or save it for the honeymoon. There are no rules when it comes to these things. You shouldn’t feel pressured at all to wear a garter or participate in the garter toss festivities if it makes you feel uncomfortable.
For other brides, the garter toss is something they’ve always imagined doing on their wedding day. Just like wearing a wedding veil or being walked down the aisle by their Mum, Dad or favourite person.
It’s always lovely when our brides tell us how their hearts broke when their beautiful handmade ‘toss’ garter was flung into the crowd. That always makes us smile because we love knowing that the pieces we create are cherished so dearly.
The DAPHNE lace wedding garter has been one of the most popular lace garters from the wedding garter collection. Completely hand-dyed, we love the soft blue tones of this pretty set.
Subtle and sweet, our garter is custom made to order with your measurements so it sits snug against your skin and won’t add bulk beneath the layers of your wedding dress. It features cascading floral lace details, finished with a gentle sprinkling of rhinestones.
The toss garter is delightful too and sold separately.
Be sure to send us your measurements so we can ensure a perfect fit.
