Last week I brought up the topic of bridal party gifts. Now I thought it might be nice to tell you how I get some of the “mothers” ready for the big day! When working with a client, I like to see the dress, a picture or a swatch of fabric and hear their thoughts on what they are looking for, if possible.
I also like to make some suggestions….for instance, if there is a lot going on in the dress, keep accessories simple (dramatic earrings and no necklace perhaps). If the dress is plain, we talk about how to jazz it up. Most importantly, the jewelry you wear should be both comfortable and something you will feel beautiful in.
An added thing to look for…can you wear the piece again? Think of how you can reminisce about the big event when you pair that same necklace with a cocktail dress at the holidays! You get the idea!
Here is a swatch I worked with recently……
And here are the ideas I came up with………
Lots of choices, but she walked away happy with this set…..
This week another client gave me this swatch to work with…….
And here are the choices she is pondering……
or maybe a little vintage one of a kind? I always have a stash of those to look at……
Or how about a pretty purse to finish off the outfit?…..
The possibilities are endless, the choices can be so fun. You will look stunnning no matter what you pick!
Enjoy!
