“Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue.” This is a common phrase heard among American brides on their wedding day as they strive to collect something that fits into the aforementioned four categories for optimal luck and good fortune in their continuing journey as a bride. The wedding dress is typically in some variation of white, with simple jewelry to accent the decorations on the dress, but never to overshadow the beauty of the dress itself. These dresses are often made of silky fabrics and accented with beads, sequins or rhinestones.
