You’ve done it—you found “the dress.” Now it’s time to pull the rest of your look together. Before you proceed, it’s useful to identify which shade of white your dress really is so that you can begin to add the finishing touches like jewelry, shoes, and hair accessories.. (This article should help.)
“Your accessories work best together if they are in the same color family, and have the same tones,” says Lisa Levine of Perfect Details, a Santa Cruz boutique and online shop specializing in bridal jewelry, wedding shoes and other fashion accessories. “You’ll almost never get an exact color match, so a little lighter or darker is fine and actually adds texture and dimension.”
There’s one exception to this rule: “Mixing different shades of white and ivory is not recommended.” Ivory tends to range from cream to slightly yellow, depending on the fabric or material. And the hues don’t play well together. If you’re unsure of what coordinating pieces to choose for your white dress, Lisa has a stylish solution:“This season there are many dazzling silver and gold accessories…why not go for the shimmer?”
