We have my FIL's services on Wednesday and this is the dress that I bought to wear. I also have a long sleeved black sweater thing to wear over it. DRESSWhat kind of necklace should I wear? Or should I skip the necklace altogether? |

I wouldn't do a necklace with that dress. It seems like it would compete with the neckline.

It's a lovely dress and I don't think you need a necklace. I would wear something that gives you comfort if you have something like that.

You could do a longer necklace, but if you don't have one or want one for something else I wouldn't worry about it. It is a cute dress. Appropriate for this occasion but could easily be worn somewhere else as well.

Really cute dress! No necklace necessary, IMO.

No necklace, it's belted and has a high neckline. Stick with earrings and maybe an updo?

I would go for a bracelet instead. It's a cute dress.

If it was a solid color, I'd do a long necklace, but I don't think it needs a necklace with that pattern. I'd just do earrings and a bracelet.

I would just be wearing my gold cross. That's what I wear whenever I'm not wearing a big necklace.

Pearls would be nice, especially if you have a longer strand.

I would just be wearing my gold cross. That's what I wear whenever I'm not wearing a big necklace. I was going to say a cross, too, but mine is silver. I also have a gold locket that DH gave me that I wear on special occasions. My go-to earrings are gold and silver entwined hoops, so either of those go with just about any dress I wear. The dress you've chosen is very pretty by itself and doesn't really need anything. If you do feel more comfortable with a necklace, I would keep it simple. So sorry about your FIL. |

I know what I would wear but we have it in our store. That doesn't help you.
I would totally wear that dress, though! It is adorable! I love the neckline and have had oodles of people ask me for it. It is so cute! You will rock it!

I would skip the necklace and maybe just wear a black beaded bracelet or a wide silver cuff style bracelet. The dress is very cute and it looks like something you can get a lot of use out of.

This is your LBD and you will wear it for years. It's not trendy to go out of style next year. I think it's a staple piece and you will loving having it to go to when you need to go somewhere...important? Or out for dinner etc. For daytime you could wear bright pink shoes and carry a pink purse. And for night/serious stuff you can wear black shoes and a black/grey purse. Lots of options.

Thanks ladies! I REALLY love the dress and the first nicer dress I've bought ever. I have a few casual ones but nothing nice like this. I was excited to get it with a coupon and on clearance for about $40!  I'm going to go with no necklace, no pantyhose (  ), black patent pumps, earrings, and a silver bracelet.  |
