Maggie Sottero Lisa Dress- ideas for accessories?

Does anyone else have Maggie Sottero's Lisa dress? I got mine this summer right before it was discontinued. Any thoughts on shoes or jewelry to go with it since it already has a lot of beading? Photos attached for anyone who hasn't seen it. I totally fell in love with the back when I tried on at my first and only dress shopping trip!

  • Because of the detail, I would go simple with jewelry, maybe a solitaire necklace with single drop earrings. Your shoes do not really matter as it's a long dress.

  • Are you wearing a veil? How are you planning to wear your hair?

    I would skip a necklace... either a thin, sparkly headband or drop earrings but not both, and a bracelet.

    The shoes won't show so wear whatever you like. I bought ones that matched my BM dresses (also my favorite color, no coincidence) so I can wear them again. (And hiked my dress up purposely in this pic to show them off.)

  • I agree with lolo; no necklace, and just some simple earrings. Maybe diamond studs? (or fake diamond studs, just as good). I would go with plain shoes in a solid color with no embellishments or beading. Keep everything else simple and let the dress speak for itself. It's really pretty!

  • Please tell me you are going to wear your hair up or to the side so that the back of that dress can be shown off!?

    I would keep things simple.  No necklace.  A pretty hair comb or headband.  Simple stud earrings and a simple bracelet.

    And if you do wear a veil, keep that simple as well.  One tier, raw cut edge or maybe a very thin sparkle edging.

  • Thanks for the ideas, ladies! Hair will definitely be up or at least off to the side. And I was also thinking earrings but no necklace and a long but very sheer veil so I am happy that it seems to be a consensus.

    This dress was only out for about a year I believe so I really haven't seen anyone else who has in on the wedding boards. Definitely not what I was initially looking for but it weirdly goes with my engagement ring and kind just seemed right :)
