What accessories and shoes to match with wedding dress?

Knottie17198507

I have 2 questions in one. My dress is not what I expected to be wearing. Its fun, blingy, and full. I really want to wear this pair of boots that Ive fallen in love with but Im not sure it will look okay with the dress. Thoughts? Its a winter wedding, Im not a fan of heels and to me boots are the only thing I would wear in the winter lol. 

Secondly what kind of accessories would go good with my dress? Bracelet and earrings? Pearls or diamonds? 

PS: I may or may not wear the belt I havent fully decided. Opinions on that welcome to! lol

I would wear diamond or crystal stud earring and *maybe* a little blingly bracelet with the dress.  I like the belt.  

Those boots do not go whatsoever with the dress.  Other bridal boot ideas:

Sorry, giant no on the boots. I don't think any boots would go with that dress. Victorian style lace up boots could be lovely with a lacy, classic dress, but that's not the style of your dress. The dress is gorgeous and looks great on you, but I'd go with some nice flats if you don't want heels, and tights if you think you'll be cold.

I don't think your shoes will really matter with that dress. No one is going to see them unless you show them.  If you go boots, I would get some dressier than in your picture though, but that's just my opinion.

Those boots are not my style, and I don't think they go with that dress at all. Pretty much any other boot will go better. I'd recommend something like Doyedo posted or simple riding boot.

I think diamonds would work better then pearls with how blingy that dress is.

OP - on the belt, I know there's already a lot of glitz going on but I think a belt helps to define your waist and focus attention on your smallest part, which is good with this drop waist style of gown. You look great in your dress, btw. 

On the boots I agree that they don't match but I also don't know how much they will be seen under the poof.

My feeling is that those boots really clash with the dress.  I'd try for something that's similar in shade. 

With the dress being as blingy as it is, I'd go light on the accessories.  Maybe elegant earrings that aren't too flashy?

I'm sorry, but I agree with previous posters that those boots really really do not go with that dress. The dress is very light, sparkly, delicate, feminine, and relatively formal. Those boots are dark, clunky, distressed, and casual. 

I think a much more delicate shoe will go much better with that dress. I really like the boots suggested by doeydo. I think you either need to go with delicate and/or dressy shoes or feminine and/or fancy boots. To be fair, I'm generally not a fan of cowboy boots with wedding dresses, but I think they can kind of work if the dress is simple and matte (not sparkly or shiny) and a little antique or country. But I'm sorry to say that I just do not think cowboy/rustic boots go with your dress at all.

How about some metallic shoes you can wear again on a date night?

And keep accessories simple.  Dress already has a lot of bling.  Earrings, if you do bracelet, small and tasteful.  Just say no to necklaces, tiaras, etc.

For the shoes,I think a pair of white or navy flat boots will be good.And for the accessory,maybe a pink or white pearl earrings.

If you love the boots and feel they are you, maybe bring them for the reception. A friend of mine had heels for her ceremony (but go with flats if you prefer) and then after dinner, pulled on the boots to hit the dance floor. Great pictures and it didn't matter that the boots didn't "go" at that point. Her mom had a pair too.
