Gosh, blue can be anything. Most brides have it under their dresses where it's not visible except to herself.
Here are mine (I got several for each category to be super lucky):
Old: My mother's ring, My dad (lol), sequins from a prom dress at goodwill (see blue), antique handkercheif, wedding band is also antique.
New: my headpiece, shoes, etc.
Borrowed: A locket for boquet contiaining pics of deceased relatives, sexpence for my shoe, hopefully the dress (depends on if I can get it altered that much)
Blue: blue/white striped stockings, sapphire jewelry, used blue sequins and glue to make my initial and new hubby's on bottom of shoes, bridal party will also sign shoe bottoms in blue permanent maker (old eithnic wivestale that first name to rub off is next to experience great fortune), blue underwear

The main customers with this product are mainly the middle and higher middle class people in the society, as they can not really afford the high price ticket of the original developer shoes. Considering their cash flow ability, it is far better buy an imitation on the originals, as these replicas commonly are not uncomfortable and they do last almost so long as the real ones. But the one who is seeking his perfect mental satisfaction by buying the original designer made shoes should see the size conversion before purchasing; it is available to their website.

The garter usually covers 3 - if it's borrowed then it's old, and they usually have blue ribbon through them (at least mine did) and it won't show so can't clash. If she has a new garter then the something old could be a necklace or some other piece of jewellery. I don't think the items do have to be worn. Who's giving her away? Would he do?! It's all things to be connected to the bride so no reason why the person giving her away shouldn't count!

I got married in cranberry and my sister thought this one through. In the end i had a blue garter belt, great for my husband to pull off with his teeth! Also i borrowed my mum's necklace, which Dad had given her, which had sapphires in it. It really went well with the colour of the dress. Alternatively when my best friend got married she wore a really skin tight dress, so no chance of a garter.. we sewed on a little blue ribbon to the middle of her bra.. it also provided a talking point for her and her husband on the wedding night!
Also, a wonderful surprise that my sister concocted for me and you may want to think about... she woke me in the morning with a little silver bracelet. It had a locket on it and she said to me this was going to be my perfect day and anything that i was worried about or might be scared about or think that might go wrong could be put into the locket, nothing was going to spoil the day. It was so moving.. my big sister looking after me. And she was right everything was perfect because i didn't worry!

The bride is supposed to have on her something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue. Obviously the wedding dress will be new. The garter could be the something blue. The something old could be (don't laugh) her undergarments. The something borrowed could be a meaningful piece of jewelry from her mother, sister, aunt or grandmother - which could do double duty as something old.

Put the blue in the garter. I think most people get it in that way. Loan her some jewelry and have her wear an old piece of jewelry as well, that will be old, borrowed, and blue. I think if you want to follow the saying, then they do all have to be work on the wedding day.

Usually the garter is blue because it's hidden and doesn't show. Blue undies are another option.
She can borrow a necklace, earrings, etc., or possibly if her dress needs a crinoline, that's a common thing to borrow.
Old is usually something handed down in the family. In my family, we have all these handkerchiefs edged in lace knit by my grandmother, her sister, and their mother and grandmother, so it's a matter of choosing one that works best with the gown.

The same situation happened to a friend. She used blue as the ribbon that tied the flowers her sister carried down the aisle. It's a very small, minor detail, but still upholds the tradition during the ceremony. :) Plus she didn't have to stick anything in her shoe or wear something obviously blue during the ceremony. Those that noticed the ribbon didn't match recognized it for the tradition.
Congratulations to your sister!

Well, in my families culture (Greek) there's the blue eye which is a symbol that protects you from any evil. They come very small in charms, bracelets and stand alone. You can sew a charm inside the dress, where no one can see it. It's good luck, almost how the italian's use the horn. They're very popular in the Mediterranean region, little girls will have them as jewelry.
Maybe blue ribbon on the ring pillows...

I had a blue ribbon in the shape of a bow on my undergarments. Old and borrowed could be some sort of jewelry (earrings, toe ring). I also borrowed the poofy slip that went under my dress, that even saved me $50.00.
