Does anyone have ideas for what jewelry would look good with this bridesmaid dress? What jewelry should I look for? Earrings, I know I want for sure I just don't know what kind. Would you put a necklace or a bracelet too?

I guess it depends on your budget. I would think a necklace alone would be good enough. Earrings would be nice too. But only if it fits into your budget...silver is always nice.

That dress is STUNNING! Gorgeous, classy and va-va-va-voom!

It has such rich detail and texture, I would only do earrings. Maybe a bracelet.

Silver is nice! Too much silver metal might steal attention from the muted steel color in the bodice, though. I would do onyx earrings and maybe a very delicate jet bracelet? What you're wearing is lovely, too... That would let the gowns shine in that understated but POW way.

You have nice taste!

Thank You, Now that I look back, the dress does look black. The color is a Chocolate brown, with a taupe bodice, not black.

I tend to prefer a necklace OR earrings, not both, personally. Bracelets are a separate issue.

What kind of jewelry are you planning for yourself?

With a straight strapless style, I think that statement earrings would be lovely, and a bracelet if you'd like (but not necessary). I think that other types of necklines are better suited for a statement necklace, where this type is better suited for statement earrings.

That's all just a matter of personal preference, though.

I love that dress!!! I'd vote for earrings and a bracelet. There are chocolate colored freshwater pearl dangle earrings that would be perfect!!!

That dress is awesome! I would go for earrings myself. But that may be because i''m SUCH an earring girl. So my vote is for some really great earrings.

I think glam dangly earrings (quite long), no necklace (the neckline of the dress should be the focus, and the earrings), and bracelet optional. The bracelet on the pic you posted looks great i think!

Very Pretty dresses...love the colors...

Swarovski has pearls in colors that would work...The taupe is close to their bronze...and they have a brown and deep brown...they also have crystals in browns...mocca...being the newest...

I you have a local bead store you can go look at the colors...it would be easy to make the bracelets and earings

I will see if I can find links to the colors for you

and teh mocca crystals...there are others that might work too

I don''t know if this is something you might be interested in...

But maybe you could have a party where the bridesmaids make their jewelery...many bead stores offer that service...then you could all go out after and really party

Best of Luck

Thanks everyone!

Mayachel, I love those earrings! and Diane that bronze colored pearl I think would look perfect!! I think the earrings Mayachel posted are the same color.

I just now have to decide if I want plain pearls like Mayachel posted, I love them but dont know if I need more dangle of an earrring for that dress. I will have to go look at them to see! Thanks again!

Hi the swarovski pearls come in lots of sizes as small as 3mm...a dangle type could easily be made...maybe diff color pearls and some crystals

there is also a powder almond color...that may be a bit too pinky...and matte

Woops, just realized that the link I gave you for those earrings was from where I found them in the first place. This is the etsy shopKymjewelry
