Nearly a month out now, and I think our wedding accessories are in order! Here are our shiny trappings:

Here we have: Pdog’s cufflinks (in a shape that matches my engagement ring), his ring (brushed metal comfort—fit with milgrain—perfect), and both of my rings (which I’ve talked enough about already). Pdog is so obsessed with his ring. He keeps wearing it around the house, and I have to remind him to take it off before we leave, as to not cause confusion with friends, neighbors, and coworkers.

Then we have my necklace-turned-bracelet, which I wrote all about, plus my makeup accessories: MAC lipstick in “Honey Love” and Essie’s “Eternal Optimist” polish. And some earring options…

I know most people buy new accessories for their wedding day, but I’m wearing those pearl earrings on the right. Pdog bought them for me a few years ago. We were in downtown Cincinnati right before the holidays, ice-skating and shopping. I fell in love with those earrings behind their glass casing, and, in a fit of romantic spontaneity, he proclaimed, “I’m going to buy them for you!” And he did, right then and there. They remind me of him—of us—and I don’t need anything more than that on our wedding day.

And I’m also not buying a new clutch for myself. No reason to—I haven’t found any I like as much as these few I already own. I have one gold, one silver, one pink, and two black options. I’ll pick one eventually, and let my bridesmaids borrow the rest, if they want.

Are you buying new accessories? Anything good? I love accessories, so tell me about ’em!
