Smart Brides: Upgrade your bridal gown with accessories

Now that you’ve found your gown, the next step is choosing the finishing touches. The right accessories can elevate your look but remember simplicity is key.

You don’t need a veil, tiara, earrings, necklace, a sash etc. For example, if your dress has an ornate neckline, opt for a pair of drop earrings instead of a necklace.

Can’t decide between silver and gold jewelry? Complement the embellishments on your dress be they silver or gold.

If you’re wearing a headpiece, make sure you bring it when selecting jewelry — especially earrings. You’ll need to consider proportion and the finish of the embellishments.

You can also give your open back just the right amount of bling with a delicate necklace that hangs down your back.

Another option is a beaded cap sleeves, these would be suitable for a sleeveless gown or a gown with straps.

Don’t forget: the most important thing about picking the perfect pieces for your wedding gown is they should be a reflection of you.
