today: Kate’s very fancy something old, new, borrowed and blue Something old: The bridal gown, from Sarah Burton of Alexander McQueen, featured “traditional Carrickmacross craftsmanship,” a lace technique that dates back to the 1800s.   Something new: Her parents gifted their daughter with custom-made diamond oak-leaf earrings with a diamond-encrusted acorn set in the middle, a nod to their new family crest. Something borrowed: Kate’s tiara, on loan from the queen herself, per royal wedding tradition, is a 1936 Cartier “halo.”  Something blue: We can’t see it, but a blue ribbon is sewn into the interior of her dress. MORE Royals — they’re not just like us.
