Diamonds are forever

Diamonds are forever

Q I just don't seem to be able to find the right necklace and earrings to complement my heavily embellished gown. What styles would you suggest I look for?
A Lorraine Marsh says: Every bride should remember not to overdo the jewellery, allowing it to steal their shine. Try choosing something subtle, yet beautiful.

Understanding your neckline is important, as is the hairstyle you've chosen. For example, if you're wearing a dress with an asymmetric neckline, perhaps it's best not to wear a necklace at all. While off-the-shoulder and plunging necklines accommodate a necklace very well.

If the dress is already embellished, a simple diamond solitaire pendant or single pearl drop is more than enough. Plain diamond stud earrings go well with any hairstyle, representing a classy look. Or again, a pearl stud with a diamond accent will always complement any look.

Finally, I'd advise you to buy jewellery you can wear again. Investing in classic pieces over costume jewellery means you'll continue to be reminded of your wedding day for years to come as you'll get more use from it over time.
