    Hi bees!

    I finally found a dress I liked and am waiting for it to come in sometime in the next couple months..  But I am stuck with coordinating jewelry and hair with it.  I'm not really good at that kind of thing.. 

    I am wearing a veil, it has crystals along the edge and its about fingertip length (so it comes to just under the corset bottom).

    Our wedding isn't black tie formal and doesn't really have a theme, just want it to look romantic/classy. 

    My questions..

    Necklace - Yes or no?  I heard sometimes you don't want to wear one for strapless dresses with detail on it.  I can go either way but I'm used to wearing one all the time so I might feel bear without it.  If yes, what kind??

    Earrings - Would you suggest long tear drop earrings or like studs?

    Hair - Up all the way (like some kind of bun).  OR  half up/half down? 

    At first I thought you should wear it up all the way so you see your neckline/shoulders/dress.  But hair that is half up/down can be romantic too..  I have thick wavy long hair (that comes to just below my bra strap).

    If you can post your ideas and links/pictures I would appreciate it.  (I am a very visual person so that's the best way I figure things out).  Thank you!! Laughing

    I think the choices are dependent on each other.

    For instance, if you do drop earrings hair up and no necklace. If you choose a necklace do stud earrings and hair down (though I think it could look nice up too).

    Have you fallen in love with a necklace or a pair of earring yet?

    @Aure:  Not yet, I have found some I liked but didn't buy anything since I wasn't sure what I was doing.

    But good point about both are dependent because you don't want too much bling going on for sure ;)

    @asianyoushi:  The Angelina dress is gorgeous!  Do you know what your doing for your dress yet?

    @asianyoushi:  Wow!  Those earrings are gorgeous!! :)  I can definitely see myself going with a drop/long earring since it gives a bit more of an effect I think.  Nice choice :)
