Help me shop?

J&K10910 · December 2010

Sorry, I know some people hate these posts, but I'm stuck. I'm looking for wedding jewelry and I was thinking a fairly simple pearl drop pendant necklace. The problem? There don't seem to be many of them. (Specifically, that aren't ugly, gaudy, or super sparkly. I don't mind a little sparkle, but my dress neckline is pretty sparkly so I'm looking for something a little more subdued.) Any suggestions for where to look? Are you bored and want to look with me?

If you hate this post, well, I hope you have a lovely NYE

<div>Look at my planning bio, under wedding party jewelry...not sure if it is too small or not for you...or you could just look at the etsy seller's page...let me go find it...</div>

I know nothing about jewlery. Is this the type of thing you're looking for? Clicky.

Anysunrise · December 2010

I remember seeing a couple cute ones on AATB's Etsy seller's thing. I can't remember what her name is though.

J&K10910 · December 2010

Oh, good. I was hoping someone would have Etsy seller suggestions. I get super overwhelmed on Etsy so I haven't made much progress there.

J&K10910 · December 2010

WTF, B. Google fail, party of me. That's very much like what I'm looking for.

number55 · December 2010

okay...her name is kymjewelry but apparently she is on vacation right now and her shop on etsy isn't open. It does say that they will be back in the new year.

This is a pic of what I bought:

J&K10910 · December 2010

Oh, I like that, number! Thanks! I'll check out her page as well.

K&J64 · December 2010

Something this simple or more ornate?

Yay! In that case, in addition to Etsy sellers mentioned here I'd check Amazon and Overstock.

NatesGirl16 · December 2010

I found a great Etsy seller, but the necklaces might be too much for what you're going for. I PMed you her name, anyway, b/c you might like earrings or something and she seems pretty reasonable with working with me (since last night, of all times).

<div>yeah, unfortunately while she is on holiday there are no items posted on her etsy page...but there is a contact email.</div>

Oh, I like that too, cullen.

Ok, what the fuuck is wrong with me? I googled and searched for an hour yesterday and couldn't find what I wanted.

Yup, I have this problem as well.

Do you like this, or is this too much?

Okay, I found AATB's etsy seller, I don't think she has anything like what you're looking for as far as the drop pendant goes, but just in case you like something:

Thanks, Nates!

NatesGirl16 · December 2010

All of these gorgeous necklaces make me wish I picked a different dress, just a little.

J&K10910 · December 2010

kd, I LOVE that, but I'm definitely looking for pearl. I wonder if she could customize...

Thanks, Any!

kd.joseph · December 2010

This is pretty:

number55 · December 2010

I wish I had decided to wear a necklace. AATB's seller's stuff is awesome but it wouldn't have gone well with my dress but I could have pulled something off.

I don't know what I liked more, the dress or the accessorizing of the dress...probably the accessories because they fit me regardless of the sample!

Posted by NatesGirl16[/QUOTE]

See, my neckline is pretty fancy/blingy too, but it's fairly low cut (not sluttastic or anything, but you know) and I'd feel weird without a necklace. Could you do something simple?

Steph0871 · December 2010

J- can you post a picture of your dress?

I second B on the overstock suggestion. That's where I almost bought my wedding necklace... until I found a gorgeous one for $10 at Charlotte Russe (yup.) Don't rule out looking at places like that too, if you don't mind 'fake' pearls!

Anysunrise · December 2010

I'm definitely cheap and just wearing a pearl necklace/earrings that I already have, even though I'm pretty sure sparkly would go better with my dress. Whatever.

Steph0871 · December 2010

oohh. This is just a little something 'more', but still simple. I love it.

I like this one too.

I don't think so. It has so many ruffles and all, but I'm keeping one necklace (it matches the other stuff I'm interested in) in mind. I think I'll just end up with a headband, earrings, and bracelet. I can't even believe I found something so fast--I wasn't even looking. Window shopping pays off, apparently.

Isn't your dress a halter style? IDK if that was someone else. If so, a drop necklace would definitely look good because of the shape of the neckline.

I'm on my mom's laptop, so I can only post the link! But here it is <a href="http://www.symphonybridal.com/scripts/ViewFullSizeGown.cfm?image=/spring2010Vol2/images/rhapsody/R6517_F.jpg&id=78">http://www.symphonybridal.com/scripts/ViewFullSizeGown.cfm?image=/spring2010Vol2/images/rhapsody/R6517_F.jpg&id=78</a>

I wouldn't mind fake pearls at all, but my dad is buying, and I think he wants to get me something real. Though I'm sure if I found something cheaper I really loved he wouldn't argue too much ;)

kd.joseph · December 2010

Man I love that dress, especially the back. Are you wearing your hair up?

J&K10910 · December 2010

Oh, Steph, I LOVE that first one.

Anysunrise · December 2010

Ooh J. That dress is really pretty. I'm kind of excited for your wedding.

Posted by kd.joseph[/QUOTE]

I think I'm either going to do curls, pulled to one side (kind of like OWN's hair, if you know what that was like, except curlier and a little "bigger") or curls pulled BACK but not up. My hair isn't that long, so you'll still get the full effect of the back!
