    I am having the hardest time picking out my jewelry.  My dress is a very simple light ivory Sottero & Midgely.  I am wearing flip-flops/sandals from J. Crew with goldish/silver band on them.  I generally despise yellow gold and prefer silver or white gold.  I don't tend to go over the top for anything, so the jewelry should be somewhat simple.  I don't know where to start.  I've included a picture of the dress.  If I use the sash, it will be a different color, probably a sage green.

    What a gorgeous dress! I would wear pearl and crystal earring and a matching bracelet. Nothing around the neck it would probably be too much. Just my thoughts.

    Thank you - I looked at the actual brides who had worn the dress and none of them wore a necklace either.  I have a simple princess cut diamond solitare necklace by FI gave me, I may wear that.  Do you have any suggestions of where to look for jewelry?

    I'm not good at suggesting jewelry and it sounds like you already know that you're looking for earrings and a bracelet. Those will depend on your hair and if you decide to wear the necklace. I can suggest that you try looking at some of the following:

     www.etsy.com (many of the jewelry sellers on here are also willing to do custom-made  jewelry for really decent prices)

    www.1928.com (also, pretty decent prices)

    http://www.moniquesboutique.us/ also does custom pieces with pearls and crystals, good prices)

    http://www.stephaniebrowne.com.au/ (a lot more expensive than the others, but they have some nice pieces)

    http://www.reginab.com/ (I had been looking here as well but can't remember the pricing/thewebsite is acting weird on my computer)

    I hope these help you out some. I know it was really difficult for me to figure the jewelry situation out, so I just hope to pass on some of the research I had to do!!!

    Good luck!

      A simple diamond solitaire pendent if you want to wear a necklace, and simple stud diamond earrings would make a classy statement. Very simple yet elegant. Just my opinion. BTW, your dress is beautiful!

    WOW!!  I LOVE your dress.  Your princess cut solitaire is perfect and your FH will certainly notice.  Earrings simple too - maybe long pearl & crystal drops or as above just diamond studs.  You could do a bracelet or not - they tend to catch on things like veils.

    Your dress makes such a statement you really don't need much.

    Thanks to everyone for the suggestions.  I think I am going to keep the solitare necklace and do some simple drop earrings.
