I fell in love with my dress when I tried it in .. and 2 hours after trying 20 others on .. I ordered it. Problem is .. I still keep looking at other gowns! At times I think it's too white .. and then I think it's too plain .. Should I wear my hair down to dress it up?

Whether a dress looks too plain or not, or whether you should wear your hair down or not, all depends on how you look in the dress. It is a very pretty dress, and I think you could easily maintain its look with simple accessories or really max is out with jewelry, veil, headpiece, etc.
If you love the dress, it doesn't matter what anyone else thinks of it. Whether you have your hair up or down is personal preference and has nothing to do with fancying up a dress. Your dress is gorgeous and you don't need to change anything because many times simple is better.
i think it's very pretty! sometimes dresses have SO MUCH going on that it takes away from the dress and you, simple can be better!
I think your dress is stunning! I think every bride has a tiny ounce of "dress envy" left in them, even after they purchase their dress. Don't stress, I'm sure you made the right choice. =)
Your dress is beautiful! Most of us brides-to-be have the same problem. I bought my dress - loved it - and now I'm not that sure any more... but I think I'll fall in love again once I try it on the second time :)
Even if you keep looking at other gowns... had you chosen a different one you would be looking at others!
I think it's just fun to look at dresses and admire how pretty they are, but remember you chose it for a reason!
I LOVE your dress! My dress is actually no simple at all and sometimes I wonder if I should have gone simplier. What I have found is once you have your dress stop looking!
If you still think it is too simple you can always dress it up with jewlery etc.
I think it's gorgeous! If you are thinking it needs more "bling" maybe add a jeweled belt?
I don't think that your dress is too simple at all! I think it's really pretty. You can wear your hair up, down, or halfsies :) Once you put a veil on, and some pretty jewelry, you will not be feeling anything but glamorous!!!
A jeweled belt!!! That's perfect .. I ordered the sash in white and it comes with a small broche .. but maybe I should get a totally different belt .. Thanx!!!
Do yourself a favor and don't keep looking at dresses! You'll just keep second guessing yourself more and more. Your dress is beautiful and you should be happy with what you chose! I would just focus on figuring out your accessories and your hair/makeup instead of continuing to look at dresses.
This is such and important day for you, you will second guess a lot of things.
One thing to remember is that you are the only person that will be comparing what you looked like or may look like in other dresses....everyone else at the wedding will just think you are beautiful!
Love the dress... it's def my kind of "less is more" dress. Very sophisticated.
And I vote for hair up with some really dramatic, chandelier ear rings. Gorgeous!!!
I think the dress is sophisticated as well and gorgeous. Dress regret is common, just rest assured knowing that after saying no to what, 20 dresses, you'd know best what you liked and didn't like. You'll be beautiful!
I got a very ornate dress then was sad that I could only wear a very plain veil & jewelry...you definitely have more options now with veils/fascinators/jewelry!
I think we all go through this with our dresses. I feel that way. I see all these great dresses, and see girls trying on dresses that look so good. But then I remember how I felt when I first tried mine on. I also went through a situation where I thought I wouldn't be able to get my dress and I cried for a day. I've heard that wedding dresses are made to make you look good, and you will look good in a lot of them. You just have to go with how you felt at the time. Also, once you find "the one" you should stop looking! Just like you stop looking for husbands haha.
I personally love your dress.
I think it's very pretty and classic. I think an updo will make it more formal and you can always dress it up with nice chandelier earrings and a pretty bracelet. I love bling, so I am partial to it :)
I love your dress! It is stunning...ultimately it is up to you but I have to agree with @pinot that every bride has a tiny bit of dress envy :)
Bees .. you made my day .. thank you!!!
I get my dress in May and I'm really anxious!!!
I think it's absolutely GORGEOUS! I really, really love it.
I love it! And, if it's still too simple once it comes it, you can totally take that dress and bling it up with a "crystal" blingy kind of sash. It's gorgeous and a great canvas to make it your own!
I think its a beautiful dress. a timeless classic! those are my fav's. as long as you feel beautiful in it, thats all that matters
Love it! The only thing you should worry about is how it feels when you put it on...if you feel sexy confident then the dress is for you don't worry about what others think
I believe unless we see you in the dress, there's no way to determine if you will look better w/hair up or down. It's the person in the dress that drives the style of the look. I've seen the same dress before w/a bride having an updo and another bride w/hair down and two totally different looks with the same dress before.
I think it's beautiful! I don't think it's plain, but I do think that less is more. You want people to look at YOU, not just your dress. Just try to remember that you loved it when you tried it on. Just because you like a dress in a magazine doesn't mean that you will love it on.
I think it's BEAUTIFUL - but the important thing is whether or not you love it.
I absolutely love your gown!!! I think that it is very elegant and perfect. You will definitely never look back with regret because it is traditional, yet modern! Love it!
I love it! My dress is simple too, but I'm not the type of girl to be covered in beads and crystals.
I agree with the other posters, it's ver beautiful. As far as hair and accesories... Less is always more. Do what makes you feel beautiful, ask fi if he prefers your hair up or down? My fi likes it when I wear my hair down but wants me to wear my hair up.
THat dress is gorgeous! Just because a dress is simple doesnt mean its too plain - you first of all have the sash and then you can dress it up with a veil, a hair piece, your jewelry, shoes, etc.
