Something Borrowed

Brides can get their celebrity-fix on their own wedding day. Just as Nicole Kidman can borrow wonderful jewels and baubles from Fred Leighton for her walk down the red carpet, brides can borrow gorgeous gemstones for their walk down the aisle. Bag, Borrow or Steal is an online outlet that allows us regular gals to rent authentic, designer handbags and jewelry. If you have a membership, the rental fees are less, but you don't have to become member to rock their fabulous wares. And if you rent an item and love it to death, feel free to "steal" it. You can purchase any item on the website that you've "borrowed."

What's really neat about the website is the Match Maker feature. You can pick an occasion (Wedding!), pick a base color, pick your personal style type (classic, modern, edgy, vintage, elegant, etc.), as well as pick the materials, special features and how you intend to wear the accessories. The Match Maker makes recommendations based on all your preferences. Just picking wedding as the occasion gives you over 300 choices alone! The color ice blue is going to be hot this year. It was definitely hot on the fall runway and it will most likely translate over into the pretty colorscapes for weddings. Here are some pretty ice blue options from Bag, Borrow or Steal:

It's your special day and you have the right to accessorize and be beautiful beyond belief! Who cares if you have to return the jewelry a week later?? You can look stunning and not break the bank. Would you borrow high-end, designer jewelry for your wedding day?
