Need Help with accessories!! : )

llstepha

Hi ladies! So my dress just came in and I need help accessorizing! I posted pics below of the dress.  It will be a lot more fitted in the waist (a couple sizes big right now....I've lost 15lbs since I ordered it) and there will be a brooch added to the skirt (about 2 feet up from the bottom where the rouching (sp?) changes)..if that makes any sense.  I had them remove the one at the top because I turned the neckline into sweetheart and they accidentally removed the one at the bottom too (but sent it with the dress..thank goodness!).  So I plan to wear my hair half up with loose curls, and am considering wearing an ivory flower with rhinestones/pearls in the center.  But I didn't know if I should wear a necklace with small earrings  and bracelet(since the dress doesn't have any embellishments at top) or dangling earings and a bracelet.  I just want to make sure I don't overdo it either! I'm also posting pics of the type of accessories I'm considering. Thanks!! Any opinions are much appreciated!

Many people seem to not like necklaces, but I am a fan.  I think your dress is simple enough that the necklace and drop earrings would be perfect.  I like your choice of pearls.

Do that multi strand pearl necklace, the way it's on the model. It'll look beautiful with your dress and bring eyes up to your face.

Thanks ladies!! Will that necklace and a smaller flower hairpiece be too much or should I do one or the other??

I would do the necklace and earrings, no bracelet.  The bracelet will compete with the brooch on your dress.

For your hair, were you thinking of putting it in the front or back?  If in the front, it *might* be too much, I'd have to see it to know for sure.  If in the back, I think you'd be ok.

Do you have the brooch from the top of your dress?  I'd have a necklace made using that, or use it in your hair.

First- congrats on the weight loss! 

If you are a girly girl and usually wear jewelry and a little bling i think you can carry off the hair piece too.  It will only look like too much if people are used to seeing you in no jewelry what so ever.

Where did you find that necklace? I absoutely love it!

Thanks!! I plan on putting the flower toward the back where you wouldn't see it from the front just from the side and back. I found it on etsy's website... they have a ton of accessories! And I do have that brooch and love that idea! Thanks again!! Keep the opinions coming!! I'm open for suggestions!
