    Hey ladies,  I would love some bridesmaids attire advice...

    So these are my lovely yellow Amanda Archer dresses that my ladies will be wearing to my preppy meets fun beach wedding this summer on Lake Michigan! The dresses are yellow (the blue dress is just to show a full body shot of the dress) and these are the jcrew flat sandals that they are going to be wearing... so here's my question...

    What else would you have your girls wear with this?  Earrings? Necklace? Something different or all the same jewelry?  Any advice or inspiration would be greatly appreciated!

    cute!!  I think you should let the girls accessorize however they want (as long as you trust their judgement and nobody will show up in...I don't know...a spike-studded dog collar!).  Or you could purchase a unique piece of jewelry that matches each gal's style/personality and give it to them as a gift.  If they choose their own, maybe you can control the overall look by asking them to all choose bronze/gold tones or all white jewelry (I think a white beaded bracelet would be cute!) or something like that.

    I love the whole look!! I would suggest only earrings and maybe a bracelet because I love love love the neckline and don't think it needs a necklace, it might take away from it.

    drop earrings would be beautiful, if you want to have necklaces I would go with a single strand pearl necklace which would keep with the neckline of the dress.

    Since you've already got the great ruffle neckline, I would go with a chunky bracelet...maybe like one of these Kate Spade bracelets from Nordstrom?

    or this one, also from nordstrom:

    I agree, earrings and bracelet would look great!  No need for a necklace with that pretty neckline.

    thanks for all the advice ladies... keep it coming! 

    @theresa1078, i love the kate spade braclets! 

    I should also add that one of the bridesmaids doesn't have pierced ears, so I'm worried about finding earrings that works for everyone.

    I've seen those bracelets at "Nordstrom Rack" so if you were thinking about getting them as bridesmaid gifts, you could probably score a good deal on them :)

    Two of my BMs didn't have pierced ears, so they used earring conversion kits. You can order them online.

    Very cute dress and shoes! If I were your bridesmaid, I'd wear a fabulous cuff bracelet and some statement earrings with that dress, and let the ruffled neckline stand on its own. But, i'm a huge fan of statement bracelets, so maybe let your bridesmaids pick their own accessories?
