Fashion Fever by Mallory Mayer
Ever wonder where the tradition of wearing something blue came from? Well today you’re in for a little history lesson. Now keep in mind that in today’s day and age, moral, values and ethics vary greatly from years ago, but understanding where the tradition came from could in turn make it more valuable to you and your sweetie.
Wearing something blue dates back to biblical times when the color blue was considered to represent purity, faithfulness and fidelity. Back then the bride would wear a piece of blue clothing or a blue band around the bottom of her dress to subtly relay that message. The ancient Romans also wore blue, on the borders of their robes that is. This would symbolize their love, fidelity and modesty. Christians on the other hand associated the color blue with the purity of the Virgin Mary.
So rather than just sticking a little blue into your attire for the big day, try and incorporate something special. Maybe something with a special meaning or memory. Hope this little history lesson helped you out! Good luck ladies
