Anyone bored & want to help me pick BM jewelry?

gymchick05 · December 2010

I am polling my BMs too, but I am trying to find jewelry that they all like that go w/ the BM dresses. Here are the dresses

They are going to be in charcoal, which is silver-ish. My colors are silver/black/and light pink. I originally wanted to get them all necklaces similar to a tiffany one I have, but it was way too delicate and didnt show up w/ the dress, so we need something a bit bigger.
Here are some ideas, I'd love to hear what ones you would like to wear if you were whering this dress:
Ideas:

I think the last two options are my favorite- I love the flower idea, but not sure if it is too much. Thoughts? Oh, wanted to add, this isnt their "gift" just getting this for them as well.

Out of these choices, I like the first one the best. It's the most classic and has the least potential to look silly. I think those big beads and flowers could easily come across as "too much."

And if you like Tiffany-style jewelry, have you checked out EvesAddiction.com? They make Tiffany knockoffs for much lower prices. I have a copycat of the script initial necklace and you'd never know the difference.

However, when it comes to BM jewelry, I'm in the camp that always votes for "let them pick their own." The guests won't notice any jewelry they're wearing, the BMs can pick out whatever they personally like, and it saves you the time and the money from buying them stuff. (But this is assuming that they have not all agreed that they want you to provide the jewelry - it sounds like this might be the case here?)

Honestly, I would keep looking. They look to costumey for me. If you are dead set on one of those I would pick the first one.

I like the fourth one the best (second to last). I am going purely off of what options you gave and didn't really think too hard about what it would look like next to the dress. To be honest, I would probably get them only earrings (to wear the day of) and forget the necklace all together. Just because I think the neckline of the dress is enough. You can get them the necklace for a gift - they don't have to wear it for your wedding.

I agree with PP.. now after looking at the dress, I would jsut get earrings or maybe a bracelet. A necklace might look to busy with that type of neckline.

Yes!! Add a braclet too and it would be perfect.

I like the 4th. but I agree that with a halter style matching earrings and bracelet might really be the best option.

Agree that a necklace with that specific neckline may be overwhelming no matter the type of necklace. I would stick with just earrings and a bracelet.
