    The title says it all!! I do NOT accessorize like I should. FI bought me a necklace early on in our relationship - I wear it every day. My parents bought me a ring for my high school graduation - I wear it every day. I also wear my e-ring, and a watch. That. Is. It. Help me accessorize my wedding dress!! Please?!

    I plan on wearing my hair up loosely and a simple veil. All suggestions welcome!

    Wow, your dress is stunning! I'd go with earrings and maybe a bracelet... a necklace would distract from your dress! I wear the same jewelry every day too... my necklace with my cross and a Tiffany heart I bought my junior year of high school on our class trip to NYC, my bracelet from my nana and my watch from Mr. KM last Christmas!

    Your dress is so beautiful! Slightly similar to mine. If you wear a necklace it should be something shorter-kind of choker like, something simple. I love the earrings mimi recommended!

    Definitely no necklace...just some simple chandelier earrings and perhaps a bracelet..the dress is lovely and too much jewelry would only take away from it

    If you wear a necklace, don't wear earrings. If you wear earrings, don't wear necklace. But in any case, a bracelet would be a nice touch. I like the suggestsions posted above.

    Avoid wearing a necklace!

    I'd suggest a simple sparkly set of earrings and bracelet since the dress is so dramatic its self.

    I agree with PP. Wear earrings and a bracelet. No necklace. I'm getting mine from Bridal Bling Jewelry on Etsy.

    This dress is stunning! I would do chandelier earrings and a multristrand bracelet.

    Since the dress has alot of detail, you don't want to over accessorize.

    Wow! Your dress is gorgeous!!! I'm going to agree with earrings and no necklace. I'm on the fence about a bracelet, but only because I can't find one that I like, so I project onto everyone else, lmao :)

    I agree, bigger earrings and a bracelet would be perfect the bodice is so beautiful you don't need a necklace.  Also since you are the kind of person who keeps her jewelry for a long time, make sure to buy something quality that will last because then for years you can always wear your wedding earrings when you get all dressed up :)  I recommend these:

    http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=41714963

    They are sterling silver that is rhodium plated so you can keep them forever and they will always look stunning!  

    My husband Paul and I handcraft and design bridal jewelry so if you need any other suggestions or would like to check out our online store we are LizardiBridal.Etsy.com

    Thanks, and good luck!!

    Gorgeous dress! Wear whatever you feel best in. Don't wear something because someone else thinks it looks good on you if you aren't comfortable in it. It's also perfectly ok to skip all jewelry.
