Harriet Ideal Rock Total Posts: 11,800 Last Post: 11/19/2009 Member Since: 7/7/2006	Hi and congrats! I haven't bought my dress yet, but it will be simple and I'd love a necklace to dress it up. I don't think it's within the budget though. "The greatest experts are only as good as the sum total of what they have seen." (Souren Melikian)

I think I'm going to go sans necklace...but go for pretty earrings and bracelet instead. Haven't picked any yet...but will most likely go for crystal or something else more affordable. What are you thinking of?

Harriet Ideal Rock Total Posts: 11,800 Last Post: 11/19/2009 Member Since: 7/7/2006	CrownJewel, Thanks for the welcome. What's your style like? I would like a necklace, but that's not going to happen. Dangling earrings and my e-ring? It's a small daytime wedding. CourtneyLub, You lucky girl!

CrownJewel Ideal Rock Total Posts: 1,856 Last Post: 11/12/2009 Member Since: 9/27/2006	Harriet! You have such a wonderful collection of jewelry that I doubt you have to go shopping! Heck, if you're not going to wear them, can I borrow your Harry Winston loop earrings?!!! My style is fairly low-key. I love vintage styles. For earrings I'd like some kind of big drop earrings (around 2 inches long). I haven't found anything that I'm over the moon about yet, except for some that are out of my price range like these Lauren Kleins that sera introduced me to.

Harriet Ideal Rock Total Posts: 11,800 Last Post: 11/19/2009 Member Since: 7/7/2006	Those are lovely! Thanks for the compliment. I'd be happy to share, but the Harry Winstons are less than 2 inches long. "The greatest experts are only as good as the sum total of what they have seen." (Souren Melikian)

CrownJewel Ideal Rock Total Posts: 1,856 Last Post: 11/12/2009 Member Since: 9/27/2006	I also like these, but part of me still feels like I should splurge on something non-CZ. It's just hard to get this kind of look within my budget.

CrownJewel Ideal Rock Total Posts: 1,856 Last Post: 11/12/2009 Member Since: 9/27/2006	Oh Harriet I would break my rule to wear your jewelry. :) Which earrings are you planning to wear? Or is this a new project? And for a bracelet...I'm trying to get this kind of look. Either a small pearl bracelet or tennis bracelet paired with a DBTY style bracelet.

icekid Ideal Rock Total Posts: 6,554 Last Post: 11/20/2009 Member Since: 11/17/2004	Leave it to Harriet to put the jewels before the dress I wore a simple strand of pearls and slightly less simple pearl earrings. But my dress was a bit more on the ornate side, so I wanted to go simple and classic.

Harriet Ideal Rock Total Posts: 11,800 Last Post: 11/19/2009 Member Since: 7/7/2006	I like the bracelet look. Understated and elegant. Is that the type of bouquet you'll be carrying? I have a new earring project (actually, it's only my first). Have you seen my pair of tsavorite cushions? I plan to make them into dangling earrings. Marquise diamond, round diamond, marquise diamond, round diamond, tsavorite. Make sense? Leon is working on a matching ring right now, which is why I'd love a tsavorite-diamond necklace to complete the suite.

Harleigh Ideal Rock Total Posts: 2,994 Last Post: 11/18/2009 Member Since: 6/30/2007	Hi again, Harriet! I bought some sterling silver and cz DBTY for my girls as well as a set for myself, so I may end up wearing those, but I also bought several pieces of antique look green amethyst jewelry both in sterling and white gold that matches the groomsmens' shirts, so I guess it will just depend on what looks best, if and when I ever get my dress! Speaking of dresses, what are you going to do for a dress in such a short time??? Harleigh ********** I never worry about diets.

Speaking of dresses, what are you going to do for a dress in such a short time??? Hi Harleigh, Why is the dress being held up? I have no idea what I'm going to do about a dress [throws hands up]! Um...because I didn't order it until February! I had ordered several off of ebay and found one I liked all right, but none of my friends liked it (said I looked preggo because of the empire waist!) so I went ahead and ordered this one: Casablanca 1831 and was told 10-12 weeks. Unfortunately, when they called me later that week to confirm my order, they said it would be 12-16 weeks, and every other bride I've seen online talking about Casablancas has said it has been right at about 4 months. I am going to start calling May 1st and try to get a better idea as to its arrival date so that I can have a seamstress lined up in case it needs some alterations quickly! If I were you, I would look at the higher end stores like Nordstrom, Macy's, etc..., as well as J.Crew, White House/Black Market. If you let us know what you're looking for, we can start looking online for some dresses that might fit the bill. JCPenney online even had some beautiful gowns very reasonably priced, but it all depends on what you're looking for. Let us know, we're here to help! Harleigh ********** I never worry about diets.

Harriet Ideal Rock Total Posts: 11,800 Last Post: 11/19/2009 Member Since: 7/7/2006	It takes that long to get a dress?! I'm in trouble. The Casablanca is stunning. Wish I could pull it off! If I do the City Hall / nice lunch wedding, I just need a simple white day dress, right? Great, 3 months to get into shape on top of everything. Any dress ideas?

To better help you, we need to know what you might like: Are you thinking long, short, tea length? White, cream, ivory? What body shape are you and what styles are you comfortable in? Some people like empire waists, dropped waist, natural waist, etc... Do you like a v-neck, scoop neck, high neck? If you can give us an idea of what you like for your shape, that will help us find you something. Also, what's the budget??? Harleigh ********** I never worry about diets.

CrownJewel Ideal Rock Total Posts: 1,856 Last Post: 11/12/2009 Member Since: 9/27/2006	On any other day, I would say it's fine to wear the tsav suite together, but on your wedding day I think the only things on your hands should be your engagement ring and wedding band. Imagine having pictures taken with you holding your bouquet with both hands...the focus should be on your left hand. But that's just one day.

Harriet Ideal Rock Total Posts: 11,800 Last Post: 11/19/2009 Member Since: 7/7/2006	Harleigh, Short or tea length; white, cream or ivory. How do I put this delicately? For off-the-rack tops, I have to wear knits because what accommodates my top is too loose for the rest of my torso. I gravitate towards styles that are not too fitted. I don't have your figure. Other than that, I'm open. The budget is pretty open. Thanks in advance! CrownJewel, I agree. I don't want to overshadow my e-ring.

Delicate pearl necklace and drop earrings (my "something borrowed" from my beloved grandma), my new sapphire eternity ring on the right hand and my e-ring on the left. No bracelets... they bug the heck out of me. ******** R & J 08-02-08 Expecting baby on 12-30-09
