    I want to wear a statement ring since I'm not wearing much else for jewelry and my dress is on the simple side (tulle, a-line).  I can't decide whether to go with a fabric/silk one or a crystal-like one.  Help me pick!  Both are around the same price btw.

     EDIT:

    Here is Mrs. Cowboy Boot's dress for reference: 

    (I don't have any other pics of the dress otherwise with its alteration to strapless.  I will not be wearing a sash.)

    I think silk will look better with tulle - my dress is tulle, too!

    i think the crystal looks more expensive and glamorous so it's my pick (tho the flower is more delicate)

    Yeah the profile pic is the dress - all tulle, a-line, natural waist, no beading or anything on it.  It's the same as Mrs. Cowboy Boot's dress, also strapless.  Thanks everyone for help deciding!  I really can't choose :).

    Ahhh that's so funny!  I just found your post that you bought her dress, that's really cool.  Her blog inspired me so much for my whole wedding look.  Beautiful!

    I know, I love it! The funny thing is, we're having a totally urban wedding, but it's in an architectural artifacts warehouse with beautiful wood floors, etc, so Julianna will still go beautifully. 

    I honestly think both cocktail rings would go... which one do you like better?

    I am more drawn to the silk one but it's so hard to tell without trying it on together.  I really do love both of the rings.  Ugh decisions are the worst.

    I say silk just because its different. Not too often you see that at least not here where I'm from.

    Crystal, it looks more on the dressier side and I think matches the dress well.
