    I'ts a little hard to tell what the detailing on the dress is like, but I'd probably go for crystal/rhinestone jewelry over pearls because of the beading on the dress.  Nothing too outrageous because the dress is detailed, but you can definitely do a simple necklace, bracelet, and earrings.

    ETA: Very pretty by the way!!

    The beading is rhinestones and pearl.

    Oh well then, I guess it's your choice to go with rhinestone or pearl jewelry!  Either one would look nice.

    My first instinct, as a pageant girl, is to suggest blingy earrings. Strapless necklines show off your neck and chest, and if there are any embellishments on the neckline (like yours) it will be too busy with a necklace, so thats why we pair this style with big, sparkly, chandelier earrings that will light up your face and draw even more attention to a sexy, bare neck. THAT all being said, weddings are not a pageant :) however, i still think the earring rule could be applicable here. Maybe not super-gawdy chandelier earrings, but something with a little sparkle that are no more than an inch long (unless you want longer!) would look lovely, IMO. If you do want to wear a necklace of some kind, it should be short and extend no longer than your clavacles and have minimum bling--maybe some small pearls with little rhinestones in between each pearl, to match the embellishments on your dress? I would go super-understated on a necklace, you want to compliment your beautiful gown, not distract from it. No joke, go to claires or the icing in the mall for inspiration. HTH!

    Im 100% with Lorna. Im a huge necklace person, so i was definitely thinking a shorter necklace with very little bling. The dress is beautiful and you certainly dont want to pull from it! Then some awesome earrings!

    Hello Lucey,

    Either a necklace/earring combination OR a long earring and bracelet combination

    If you wear a necklace, you should look for a round one (not y-shaped) to complement the neckline of your dress. I vote for something that has crystal and CZ together. The crystal will deliver a soft look. The necklace should have spome sparkle, without dominating the dress.
    Then, pair smaller drop earrings.

    If you prefer larger earrings, then make them the focal point. However, make sure there is texture to express elements of your dress. The bracelet should have texture to pick up on your dress. If you just go with bling, it will not complement the dress.
