    I bought my dress last weekend, Denise by Maggie Sottero in ivory. And now that I'm looking for jewelry, I can't decide what looks best. My hair will be up.

    I'm considering a simple pearl necklace and some fancy pearl chandelier earrings and a big pearl bracelet.

    What do you ladies think? (Please excuse the fit of the top in the pictures, this is obviously before fittings. :) )

    You look great in your dress!! I would go for just a simple single strand of pearls...or a single pearl pendant on a nice sterling chain.

    I think these earrings and bracelet would look great done in ivory pearls!

    Congratuations on your beautiful dress! Your waist looks amazing. With regards to the necklace, have you tried a slightly longer strand of pearls? It may elongate your neck a little more. The choker style is a little distracting as it cuts you off at the neck, and takes away from the amazing fit of the dress.

    Thanks girls!

    @cliffette: Yeah, I just wore that necklace to get a rough idea of how pearls would look. I was considering a single strand choker, but you're right, I don't like how it looks.

    Now my problem is finding a reasonably priced simple strand of pearls. Any suggestions?
    I'm also looking at simple pearl pendants, any ideas on those?

    Maybe a slightly more disperse strand would give a softer look..

    Otherwise, I've seen pearlsonly.com recommended around the boards--not sure if they count as reasonably priced though!

    what about a drop pearl necklace? With sweetheart tops I think it looks nice to have something dangling. I love the earring posted

    Personally, I think a simple pearl pendant necklace and dangly pearl earrings like these would look perfect.

    I just have to say that you look STUNNING in that dress... gorgeous hourglass :)

    I personally wouldn't wear a necklace with that dress... it has such a gorgeous neckline and the detailing with the beading etc is beautiful.

    I would opt for chandellier earrings instead (not necessarily as large as the ones I'm posting if that's not your style though)... and a nice bracelet as you mentioned.
