Between necklace and hair, I'm in despair! :)

Grrr-face! I need a necklace and I'm STUMPED as to what to get! I am not excited about taking my dress somewhere to try and match necklaces to the dress, but I also don't want to purchase 5 million of them and play "what looks best?" at home. FI hasn't seen the dress (not until our big day!), so he's not going to be any help. :) What should I do?! AND...then I also have to figure out hair! I have a tiara & a veil which will be escorting me to my hair appt. this weekend to "figure something out." Any suggestions for hair? I would love down or half up/half down, and maybe loose curls? I'm open to all!

    I would go with a simple necklace, with some sparkle on it.  Like just a plain chain with a sparkly pendant. But I like simple jewelry, and you don't want to take away from your dress!

    I think these half updo's are cute, and you can have the curls as loose or as tight as you want them.

    You look beautiful!!!!! so I am sure whatever you choose you will look amazing!

    I do believe I have the same dress!!!  If it is.... the bodice of the dress is hard to match jewelry with.  My tiara is not high, but is very sparkly, therefore I got a simple sparkle necklace (which i'm not sure I'm going to wear anyways).  I personally think it looks best with longer, bolder earrings and a bracelet.  Only because the bodice is so detailed.  Best advice... stay away from anything pearl, it clashes horribly. 

    As for hair, I am going with a half up, side swept bang, soft curls.. very similar to the first pic above.  I am not a "finished" kind of girl, so I wanted some playfulness in my look. 

    When you go to look for your accessories, take a close up picture of the bodice of the dress while it is on you.  This way you can see how long your necklace can be and actually match your accessories.   Good Luck!!!!

    We have the same dress?!?! :) YAY!!! At first, I totally thought it looked like a quinceniera dress (on the hanger), but on I love it! Thanks for the help with the earrings and bracelet -...thanks for the advice on the pearl too - I was toying around seeing if I should do something "kinda" similar.. Those pictures are really cute too - I've been looking around for something - my hair isn't thick AT ALL, so I didn't want to try and pretend to be something I am not, but I would love it down no matter what..I will DEFINITELY take a pic of the bodice to take with me - good call!!

    It's just hard doing this solo (my bridesmaids are gone for the summer!).
