I need some accessories help

PMeg819 · November 2014

So I got this dress to wear when we take DD's 1 yr pics:

I'm undecided on shoes but I probably won't make a choice until closer then and I can see what I can wear with my busted up toe.

But I need some help on necklaces. The dress is pretty plain and I think I'm going to put a belt on. Thoughts on these necklaces?

Or feel free to suggest something else. I want something cheap-ish because I don't really wear necklaces all that often. I don't have pierced ears so earrings are out.

I like them all. If I had to put them in order, I'd go #2, #1, #3.

Is a scarf an option, or definitely a necklace?

PMeg819 · November 2014

Eh, I could do a scarf. I just feel like it's too much around my neck and highlights my double chin when I wear them though.

I like the look of #2, but it seems like it might be an awkward length with the dress neckline. Second choice is #1 then 3.

I like 1 best. 2 is second.

I like #1

pegasuskat · November 2014

I like 3 and then 1.

what kind of belt -- wide or skinny? what color?

a scarf can hid a double chin, depending on how you knot it.

i absolutely hate Walmart, but look there. They have a lot of very inexpensive "statement" necklaces.

I was also wondering about the length of the necklace not looking right with the neckline.

hmo- I haven't decided. That will probably be a game day decision but most likely a skinnier belt as I'm short torso-ed and skinny belts look better on me.

are you thinking tights and boots? if so, then go with a scarf like

if you are thinking something a little lighter, than go with a necklace.

i still think a scarf would be better. i imagine you might be sitting down for the pics, and the scarf will help there with the chins, especially if you wrap it around like

Kohl's is great for reasonably priced necklaces as well...

IMO - what would make you feel the best such that you'd consider wearing it for more than a photo op - go with that one!

Also for necklaces, Charming Charlie's. Color coordinating! Cheap!

i think i'm with HMO on this one, just b/c a print scarf (probably no belt or skinny w/scarf) would break up the monotony of color more than a necklace would.

Having stated that: I'd go with #1. I don't like #2 or #3.
