My bad listening comprehension #5

Theme of today's English dialogue I study was "wedding ceremony". There was explanation about one custom. I've heard about that before.

A Japanese girl asked.
Can you tell me what the famous phrase, "something old, something new, something borrowed, and something blomins?

?? Bloomins? I wonder it's bloomings and I couldn't hear "g". Yeah, "blooming" is suitable for wedding! But why is there "s"?

Correct is "blue means?". Oh, yes. I've heard that a bride wears something blue in the U.S. (not only in the U.S.?)


My hearing wrong of the past
