JEWELLERY AND ACCESSORIES 71  A HELPFUL GUIDE TO LOOK Inspiration and must-haves for the bride-to-be your big-day best W hen we’re shopping for jewellery and accessories the choices are endless, which can make it all become confusing. You want to add items that accompanies your look beautifully and doesn’t steal the spotlight away from you. Here are some ideas and tips to make the whole process easier. Décolletage details A little help when it comes to finding the ideal pendant to match your wedding dress { A chunky, luxurious necklace is a great choice for a dress with this neckline because it leaves a lot of skin to work with, a perfect opportunity to wear big bold necklaces. Aim for it to fall between the neckline and collarbone adding that beautiful touch without taking away from your dress. Tip: Keep the rest of your jewellery simple! Go for diamond studs and a delicate bracelet to balance the look. STRAIGHT NECKLINE SWEETHEART NECKLINE Go for a diamond necklace for this classic dress which is great for showing off a little skin without feeling overexposed. It’s a good idea to choose a necklace that’s pretty and subtle looking. This will give something extra, sophisticated and elegant. Tip: Match the necklace with a beautiful pair of pear-shaped diamond earrings. HALTERNECK Skip a necklace for this dress as the neckline’s high and doesn’t leave much room for a pendant because it will end up looking too busy. Tip: Wear a pair of chandelier earrings and a pearl bracelet to transform your look. Bateau neckline The bateau neckline has the aim to show off your collarbones and covers up most of the skin. This leaves a great space available for a necklace with a large pendent. Tip: Match with drop earrings and a statement ring to complete the look. V-NECKLINE How deep the neckline is dictates the length of the necklace. If you have a smaller V then the best option is to go for a shorter one, but if it plunges deeper than a longer chain looks best. Tip: A pendant with a single gemstone or diamon will look incredible with this neckline! Scoop neckline Delicate barely-there pendants work well with this beautifully feminine dress and add that little something while leaving the rest to shine. Tip: Add a tiara or a short veil to finish your look off.
