Over 40 'Something Blue' Ideas for Modern Brides

Vogue has compiled over 40 'something blue' ideas for brides, ranging from jewelry and accessories to after-party dresses and future heirlooms. The tradition, originating in the Victorian era, was meant to ward off evil spirits and symbolize fidelity, purity, and love. Today, it has evolved into subtle blue accents hidden in the bridal look or sprinkled throughout wedding events. Suggestions include blue jewelry like earrings and bracelets from brands such as Sophie Bille Brahe, getting-ready necessities like a velvet jewelry box and satin robe, hair accessories like a re-nylon headband or silk chiffon brooch, bridal bags from Erdem and Bottega Veneta, shoes from Manolo Blahnik and Miu Miu, after-party mini dresses from Emilia Wickstead, and keepsakes like a double ring box or antique monogram handkerchief. Gifts for the groom include a silver lighter case with lapis lazuli, embroidered socks, and a pocket square.
