I'm still way too far out to have that planned, but my plan is to ask for some really nice pieces from FI for our anniversary, Christmas & my birthday that I can wear for the wedding but still wear after (and even before). My normal jewelry style is pretty but most often subtle, so I don't want to be too over the top for my wedding, either.
And MIL let me borrow her mother's ring with a blue stone in it. It is gorgeous! You can probably see that in my married bio, too. It's on my right hand.
I searched high and low for a necklace, but couldn't find anything I liked My gown's neckline was pretty detailed so I ended up passing on a necklace. I found some earrings by Nadri on eBay and wore those (pics in bio), and that was it. I didn't want to be overwhelemed with jewlery, especially a bracelet since my gown was made mostly of gauzy material and I didn't want it to snag.
Carolee has a nice selection of bridal type jewelry. Good luck!
My FMIL bought my necklace and earrings and hairpiece for me when she went with my mom and I to pick out my dress. It was such a nice thing of her to do! They are a little sparkly and have some small pearls. They match the beading of my dress almost perfectly! I haven't taken a pic of them yet to post.
I haven't bought anything yet...waiting to see what my dress will look like. I have been checking out Etsy shops...it's my new addiction. So many beautiful handmade things!
Re: Show me your...
So I'm wearing my mother's pearls, and I think I might leave it at that- and my Wedding RIng!!!

And my grandmother let me borrow her diamond studs, which was a huge deal. I kept it really simple.
