Which bracelet with the Casablanca?

[misysu2]

I''d like one last opinion from you ladies concerning which bracelet I should wear with my Casablanca dress. I bought this cameo for a pendant, and was going to buy some champagne-colored studs for earrings. (cameo: http://www.rubylane.com/shops/jewells/item/J-1429)

Bracelet #1 will be sparkly and may or may not match the earrings but is neutral enough it probably not matter.

Bracelet #2 would match the gold-tone of the cameo and I would avoid the chamapagne-matching fiasco. Also, the blue is similar in color to my BM dresses.

Thanks ladies! You all probably think I can''t dress myself for the world!

I think that the more decisions I make regarding this wedding, the worse at it I''m actually getting. And, as you have all probably experienced, none of my non-engaged acquaintances give a crap!

#2

I prefer #1 - it is graceful like the patterns on the dress. #2 doesn''t seem to go with the dress to me - too many hard edges [on the bracelet, that is].

And - I LOVE the dress!

First off, I LOVE your dress. Second, both bracelets are beautiful! but I also think the first one IMHO would look better with the dress. I've already been looking at jewelery to match my dress, and I don't even have one definately picked out yet! I know it'll take a while though, so it doesn't hurt to look right Anyways, if they aren't a perfect match to the earrings is it going to drive you bonkers? I think it would make more of a difference if it was earrings and a necklace cause they'd be so close to eachother, but if it's not a 100% match with earrings and a bracelet I think it'd be ok, as long as it doesn't bother you.

ETA: Looking again at the three (dress, and bracelets) the second bracelet might look really great with the dress once you have it in person. But I do agree with Mimzy that it would compete with the necklace. I think when you have such a great stand alone piece like your gorgeous cameo, the rest of your pieces should be more simple.

i definitely vote for #1 also!

the second one is pretty, but i think that it might compete with the cameo, and thus make the whole thing a little too eclectic maybe? the first bracelet it beautiful and neutral and i can''t see it clashing with your dress at all.

Can I vote no bracelet?

I know, I'm no fun...but you've got earrings and a gorgeous cameo, and I think a bracelet might push it over the top. Might not, but I'm a fan of 'less is more'. Too many accessories could be distracting, especially if they're not all the same "kind" (for example, pearls).

p.s. LOVE the dress. I don't think I voted in your last thread, but it's absolutely the dress for you.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your dress! Always been a favorite of mine here on PS!

I personally think a matched set would look better if you are determined to wear a bracelet, too. I would try to find something that has a matching bracelet and earrings if possible.

If you don''t mind them not matching, I like the first bracelet best...the second one is pretty, but I just don''t think it goes well with your gorgeous dress. HTH!

I vote for #1 also, and I think since you are just doing small studs and the cameo pendant, a bracelet wouldn''t be too much, IMO. But, I''m also not a huge fan of matched sets either! Your wrist will be far away from your earrings and necklace, and I think #1 is a gorgeous bracelet! You could def wear it again too, which is always a plus
