Hey everyone- my wedding is 2 WEEKS away!! And- I need help finding jewelry! My dress is very simple so I wanted something a bit more bold, please give me some suggestions! I originally was going to wear some earrings from j crew ("jeweled garland" in peach) but now I''m not sure because I don''t know what else would work with them. I think what would work best is bold earrings/bracelet combo or maybe a bold necklace with some studs. Help!!

These pics aren''t the greatest quality but I think you can get the idea. Here''s one of the back:)

Hmmm. I think I''d go with the bold earrings/bracelet combo. If you did a necklace, I think it would have to be shorter since there''s not a lot of real estate space on your neck/chest area right now. If you did a necklace, maybe a short strand of pearls? I''m kinda hopeless with dress accessorizing so I''m curious to see what the other ladies chime in with!

Personally, I would go with a close fitting necklace and earrings. I have no clue what you like, but if it were me, I might do something like this.

Not a matched set, but they go together and would be really fun and bold. My mom has a similar necklace and they are great in real life.

I personally wear dainty things, and would either do an ornate antique piece, or something organic like this: http://www.fourseasonsdesigngroup.com/silver-collection-classics/botanicals?id=310

I would not do rhinestones since a big noticeable piece seems a bit much in them to me, but if they sparkled enough,I would probably relent

So what do you like? Bright colors? Big pieces? very ornate?

These are the earrings that I have and love, I''m just not sure what else I can wear with it as far as a bracelet, etc. If someone has suggestions for a bracelet that goes along with it, let me know!

I just wanted to share the bracelet I chose and get your opinions. I bought 2 of these to stack, do you think they go well enough with the earrings? Thanks!

I think what you chose looks great together and will look great with your dress. Love your dress btw!! I personally would only wear one bracelet and not stack them cause I like more simple stuff and think it may be too much. But try it on and see how it looks.

Oh I LOVE your dress! And the earrings you selected. And the bracelet you''ve chosen, whether you do one, or stack two. I also like this bracelet from J. Crew...

First off you look so happy/excited in your pictures I love it! And I really love your earring and bracelet combo, I''m more of a one is never enough, so I think the double bracelet would look awesome! I think they are a great compliment to each other. As far as a necklace if you decide to wear one a double strand of pearls would look great in addition to earrings and bracelet or either with just the earrings too! Note: I''m going to have an add in from my post from your engagement pictures post
I noticed your photographer does a lot of stuff around my area, I am about 1hr 45min from New Orleans, so we must not be tooo far from each other! And too I went to go back and look at your post about your ring (which is phenomenal btw) since I realized I couldn''t be too far away and I would LOVE to check out the shop. There isn''t anywhere that I have found that has anything close to the deco period that I love to look at except for in the French Quarter. I hope I''m not too forward in asking for the name? Anyways Love your pics! I wanted to post about your dress jewels too so I''m going to post my question for ya there too, so maybe you''ll see it!

Shine4me- Thanks! I''m in Baton Rouge but actually will soon be in Houma:) Not sure if you''re close by or not! The store where my ring is from is Barker''s in Baton Rouge- They have the most beautiful selection of antique jewelry! The people there are so helpful as well, you should definitely check it out if you''re close enough.
