    Hi bees - I have been perusing here and there for quite some time for a cuff bracelet with a "WOW" factor to go with my ornate dress.  Yet, I only found one or two and couldn't justify spending $80 - Bride on a Budget...

    I found the cuff at Charlotte Russe for $9.80, which I figure if I don't like it with my gown it's no biggie and can wear it as a date night accessory.

    So I began looking for earrings and other things to coordinate with this cuff - and I found the earrings on eBay for $8.00, free shipping.

    I wanted drop, short earings anyway because I still want to wear a layered 3 or 4 strand pearl necklace with bling and long earrings would be wayyy to much in my opinion if I put on a necklace.

    Then again, I might skip the necklace and get chandelier earrings if the feedback is so-so on the earrings.  The cuff is what I'm building my ensemble around because I love it soooo much, but if it's gotta go - be honest.  These are all very sparkly with crystals and rhinestones but I wasn't able to quite capture that.

    Let me know your honest opinions - thank you WB Community :)

    I don't think it would be too much with a multi strand necklace, because the earrings, while sparkly, aren't HUGE! Do you have the necklace yet??

    I bought some from Forever 21 that are for my Bridesmaids, and so I was thinking of getting the same for me, and removing all but 3 or 4 strands.

    I like the current earrings and necklace but I'm not crazy about the bracelet.

    Im iffy on the cuff the earrings are a no a nice chandelier/ Diamond drop would be lovely and i say if you do a necklace nothing too out there just so it doesnt take away/clash with the detail of your dress love the embroidery btw.

    Thank you - I truly appreciate the honesty.  At least I still have plenty of time, my dress will be here in June.

    We plan on a lunch time wedding, and a night out afterwards and so perhaps I will wear these out that night with a short white dress.

    Thanks again Laughing

    I like the necklace and earings are cute, but not feeling the braclet. Looks to chunky to me

    Sorry, I like all of the pieces individually, but I think they detract from the stunning effect of your dress.
