How would you accessorise this dress?

Kk86, 11 September, 2013 at 19:50 Posted on Planning 0 6

I've bought this dress and I'm a little unsure as to how I should accessorise? I was thinking of a long veil, small pearl drop earrings and a really delicate diamanté belt. I also thought that since I am getting married in September that it might be good to wear a cropped ivory angora cardigan like Kate (duchess if Cambridge did?).

Also, I've got my shoes, they're covered in diamanté and I've recently been wondering if they might catch on the lace overlay as I'm walking, has anyone else had this experience? It's difficult for me to judge at the moment cos the dress needs altering quite a bit...

Here is the dress:

    Ooh, beautiful dress :o)

    Love the idea of the belt and LOVE cardis with wedding dresses.

    I'm getting married in the middle of August and have got an a line taffeta dress but I'm going to get a cropped cardi for the late evening. There's gorgeous grounds at our venue on the banks of a river so picturing we might be outside after dark at some point.

    Love dainty pearl earrings aswell. Are you thinking no necklace if you have a belt? You could do something really delicate, pearl strand/ pendant necklace or something?

    Not sure about the diamanté shoes snagging. Depends what kind of stones they are. If they're a bit jagged I'd worry about that aswell

    Thanks! Wow, I bet your photos will be amazing Smiley smile. I agree about the cardis! So far I haven't had much luck finding any on the Internet but will post on here if i do.

    Yes I think a delicate necklace would be a good idea as well.

    I hope all is going well with your wedding planning Smiley smile x

    Funny you say that, I can't find any nice cardis online either! Loads of pics of brides with them on, but nowhere to buy them! Haha. So definitely share if you find any links!

    Plans coming along well thanks. Hope yours are too! I've had a real burst of excitement today for some reason... Still 11 months to go though! :o)

    Beautiful dress!

    I think a nice belt with a hint of sparkle perhaps would look lovely.
