Necklace?

emjo, on June 14, 2019 at 1:23 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 13
I've always wanted to own a pearl necklace. I was thinking my wedding would be the perfect time to splurge. My only concern is would a string of pearls look good with my dress? I'm attaching a picture of a model in my dress and a picture of the type of necklace I want. I'm not the best at accessorizing so I need some guidance. I will be wearing my hair up.

Necklace? 1

Necklace? 2

    I don't think it would go with it but I think even if you wore it it would look nice anyway

    Yes, I think that short of a string of pearls would look nice with that neckline, as you would still have the negative space. A long string of pearls wouldn't look good, but the choker style would be very elegant.

    I don't know that I like pearls with that neckline, and I'm a huge fan of pearls! I wore the pearls I inherited from my grandmother on my own wedding day. Before you splurge, could you try on the dress again with a cheap faux pearl necklace to get a visual? To me, that dress has such a delicate look that I would pair it with a thin necklace and pendant if I opted for a necklace at all. But I'm also terrible at visualizing things.

    I am bad at visualizing as well. I like the idea of trying a faux necklace first. I will have to buy one before I go to my first fitting.

    I might be biased, because I love pearls. I think a short strand like you want is universal and can go with just about anything. I do agree, though, that trying the dress on with a cheap costume strand first is really smart, to see if you like it.

    I personally think a short strand of pearls would look really good. I love more simple jewelry and I'm not into the big, sparkly, long drop-style necklaces a lot of brides typically wear these days so I would definitely go for the pearls.

    I wore pearls with a lace dress, though it was a sweetheart neckline, so I'm biased but I think it would look really nice. I think it's a good idea to try a faux set to really picture how they'll go together

    Thanks for all the advice. I'll definitely get a fake necklace to try on. That was a great idea.

    I think a short string of pearls would look lovely with this (and with anything really!)
