Make sure you sing the title of this post in your head to the tune of, well, this song. It’s a classy day ’round here, folks.
E’erybody else please continue reading! Delightful garter-ness is coming up… you don’t want to miss these beauties!
So, I really really really really [...] really hate garters for the most part. I hate the shiny polyester, the creepy ribbon, the excessive cuteness. They just skeeve me out. That is really unfortunate, because I L-O-V-E the idea of us doing a garter toss.
But, today I stumbled upon these beautiful, beautiful garters by Etsy seller Florrie Mitton. I swoon.
They’re perfect. That dotted tulle? To die for. The detailing? Amazing. That horseshoe? Bananas. As far as garters go, I’m sold on Ms. Mitton. I’m going to convo her to see if she can make me a custom set with, well, the stuff I exactly want on it, (Dotted tulle *cough*), as well as a matching throwing-garter.
Anybody else totally grossed out by the run-of-the-mill garters and go on an epic search for fab ones? Did you consider yanking the tradition all-together if you didn’t find one that didn’t make you barf? I sure did!
Uhm, I’m not on my home computer and can’t access that video from where I’m sitting, but I already know what song you’re talking about. Rock.
And…these are gorgeous. They make me reconsider getting a garter — maybe I’ll get one just for me? Oh, ok…Mr. FF can be in on it too.
Lol. Yes, yes, yes. I went there.
Do it! They’re gorgeous. I need to order one STAT.
THE POLKA DOTTED ONE IS SOOOOO PERFECT- sorry i couldn’t resist screaming cause well it was screaming at me. Scissors- it is sooo cute- hope you have your eye on it.
I don’t think I am sweet enough to rock these gorgeous garters! they’re amazing!
I wasn’t going to get a garter, but FH insisted. So, I began my search for something that didn’t make me want to vom. I settled on one that’s made of platinum colored satin with a silver jewel. No lace in sight to make me itch near my lady parts (itchy bride = not sexy).
We totally nixed the garter toss…partly because of pukey-tacky garters. Had I known about these, I might have reconsidered, but I’m still not a fan of skanky music while my FI digs under my dress…
These are ridiculously pretty. I’ve been so anti-garter, but I think you just changed my mind.
Oh I have to add - there’s no way I’d toss these. This is MINE.
omg, I wasn’t planning on wearing a garter since we’re not doing a toss, but I just might after this post. I’m drooling!
Wow. Those are gorgeous. We’re not doing a garter toss but now I think I have to have one.
haha, i’m glad you posted that video because i was already singing the song before the rest of the post loaded!
and those garters are gorgeous! now that would be something i’d rock
LOVE LOVE LOVE these!! I’m on the lookout for a very particular garter (San Diego Chargers themed - my “something blue”) but can’t find one that doesn’t make me want to puke. No I just want one of these pretties!!!
omgod those are sooo pretty, first garters I’ve ever wanted and now I really want… and can’t possibly justify spending all that cash *cries*
Love, love the dotted tulle. My favorite garter ever is the flask holder one that Mrs. Cherry Pie sported.
These are just so pretty though and I kind of feel like I need one.
Um WOW. Like seriously. Dotted tulle? YES. Or the top right. Love. Love love.
@Miss Pretzel: THEY MAKE ME DO THAT TOO!
@Miss Pencils: If I am, so are you!
@Mrs. Dee to Bee: You can class it up!
@diorable: These garters are pretty persuasive, they are.
@tea: It’s totally stuck in my head now!
@Candy_Nee: Maybe hang a Charger’s charm on it? You could just pretend! :p
@Arachna: Some might be DIY-able. Perhaps?
@Miss Cheeseburger: Dotted tulle just makes me die. In a good way, that is.
@Miss Sewing: I love them all, which is bad! lol
