Match your bridal jewelry to your dress style
Matching your bridal jewelry to a season is one thing. Finding jewelry that matches your personality and your dress is another. Every brides wants to look her best on that special day, so to help, I've written some easy to follow guidelines for the most common styled dresses.
Strapless dresses
A strapless dress gives you some options. You can either go with dainty jewelry or take a risk with something bold and chunky. A strapless dress lets you show more skin, or go with something funky!
If you want a simple, elegant look, choose something smaller that compliments your dress:
This lovely Swarovski crystal choker is the perfect accessory. A pear shaped Swarovski Crystal dangles from an intricately detailed bouquet of sterling silver flowers to match your bridal bouquet. For a little extra sparkle, throw in a pair of lovely Swarovski crystal earrings to complete the set!
If you want to wear a slightly more intricate piece, something like this Swarovski crystal choker is still elegant, but a bit more adventurous:
The beautifully woven flowers create an elegant look, each highlighted by three Swarovski pearls and detailed craftsmanship.
If you don't want to wear a choker, brides-to-be can pick out a sparkling bracelet to offset bare chests and shoulders. The natural beauty of your skin will only be enhanced with some sparkle around your wrist. This bracelet is elegant and eye-catching:
If you chose a strapless dress so you could really get funky with your jewelry, go with a big necklace. This season, big bold necklaces are everywhere. A strapless dress lets you wear a bulky, layered Swarovski crystal necklace, showing your great sense of fashion as well as classic beauty:
If you prefer something chunkier, maybe something like this pearl infused Swarovski bridal choker:
The white pearls look fantastic against tanned, summer skin.
Halter Dress
Halter dresses are becoming more and more popular, but you might wonder what type of jewelry goes best with the style. If your straps are thick, you need a necklace big enough that it doesn't get lost in the dress, but small enough to distract from the dress itself. You need to find a piece of bridal jewelry that balances well. This floral pendant with Swarovski Crystal petals is not just a stunning choker:
It also doubles as a brooch.
If you want a bit more sparkle, you can go with a Swarovski crystal choker with a thicker chain, like this one:
If you chose a dress with patterns or details on the straps, you might want to stay away from chokers altogether. It might be better to go with a nice bridal jewelry set of earrings and a bracelet. The last thing you want is to clutter your neckline. The rule is, "too much ruins the dress and the jewelry." This chain of flowers sparkling with Swarovski Clear Crystals is married together with antique sterling silver:
The intricate design would compliment the design on your straps well.
Spaghetti Straps
The queen of dainty style. The delicate straps of a spaghetti strapped dress pair perfectly with thin chained pendants and chokers, like this delicate strand of fresh water pearls:
To add some excitement and subtle flare, you can add a splash of color to your. A hint of color, like the cluster of pink Swarovski crystals that accent the string of fresh water pearls, can add so much to your dress without overwhelming the style:
Try matching your bridal flowers with the color of your jewelry for perfect look.
