    Hello,

    I found some pretty jewelry at the swavorski store. Do you think it goes well with my dress? Should I get a necklace with this dress?Does this go with my dress? :  wedding Swavorski Gillian NecklaceDoes this go with my dress? :  wedding Swavorski GillianDoes this go with my dress? :  wedding Hampton

    I may not wear the cap sleves.

    Here are the shoes that I am getting:

    I love the earrings.  I think because of the sleeves that the necklace would be too much.  But a bracelet would work.

    I think either the earrings or the necklace. They both feel like statement pieces, so I would just do one, but not both. If you keep the sleeves, just do the earrings. If you go strapless, maybe the necklace with the stud earrings?

    And I agree with Jennifer_espos - a bracelet would be cute.

    That all looks really pretty! I'm sure it will look fine together!!

    ----edit-----

    the necklace may be a little to much though, unless you can wear it kinda like a choker, really close to the base of your neck.

    I agree with the PP, only wear one or the other! If you keep the straps I definitely wouldn't wear the necklace! Very pretty jewellery though :)

    I think if you do the cap sleeve don't do the necklace. The neckline on the sleeves have enough embellishment and you may not want to overdo it.

    If you do the strapless you can do earrings and bracelet. They are very pretty by the way.

    I would also skip the necklace; the earings are so pretty though! Good choice!

    The earrings and necklace are gorgeous but I would just do the earrings. I think there will be too much going on with the necklace.

    Thanks! I think I may go with just the earrings because I am also wearing a tiara or headband with some bling in it.

    Absolutely! Although I don't think you need the necklace as the top of your dress is quite detailed :)

    love the earrings but i say no to the necklace. I think your dress is georgous and has a lot going on and you dont want to distract from that. You also dont want to look to sparkly!

    Love love love the earrings though!

    I love the earrings, but I'd say no to the necklace - something shorter would be nice.  The neckline is so nice on the dress, and I think the longer necklace miight be a bit distracting.  I love your shoes... who makes them?  I think they're awesome!  (and I'd love to find out who makes them cuz I might want to buy them!!)

    While the jewelry is beautiful, I don't think it really goes with your dress.  Your dress and shoes are very bright and the jewelry looks kindof dark.

    I agree with everyone!  The necklace would be too much. But the earrings, I love.

    I actually looked at these pieces.  Although they are beautiful,  I don't think either of these go with your dress...Your dress is just so elegant and I think you can find a better match.  I decided against them for my own wedding because I thought the rope cord style just wasn't the look I was going for.  

    This may not be the advice you're seeking on here but have you seen the "chandelier" earrings at swarovski? I think they look a lot like what the model is wearing in this picture of your dress. It might be too much but if you didn't wear a necklace, that might be an option. 

    Does this go with my dress? :  wedding Picture 11

    Love the jewlery and I voted it's perfect, but then I saw your shoes and heard about your veil. I now say just the earings. With the scattered crystal veil I think the necklace may be too much.

    I saw the jewelry in person at the Swavorski store and it was quite blingly. I will check out the chandaliers too. I have to be careful about what type of metal I wear because my ears get irritated.

    The shoes are from heylady.

    Thanks everyone!
