There are a couple of things to keep in mind when accessorising and dressing for a wedding that isn’t yours - one is comfort, because you’re going to be spending hours in this ensemble from the ceremony, to the after-party. The other is that the photos from the event will probably be around for years to come, so you want your look to stand the test of time. We’ve rounded up our favorite delicate pieces - pearls, silver, gold - so you can be the (second) best dressed at your next wedding!
ONE
Pearls
Nothing says classic quite like pearls do. The other upside is that they go with basically everything!
TWO
Silver
Silver jewelry is another timeless choice that always exudes elegance and simplicity. You can always pair some of these with gold pieces too, since mixing metals is so in vogue right now.
THREE
Gold
Gold jewelry brings warmth and a hint of luxury to any ensemble. Here are some of our favorite modern yet classic gold pieces.
Final tips:
- Match the Dress Code: Always consider the formality of the wedding when choosing your jewelry. Subtle or statement pieces for black-tie events, and more playful options for casual ceremonies.
- Comfort is Key: You’ll be wearing these pieces for several hours, so make sure they’re comfortable.
- Balance Your Look: If your outfit is already busy with patterns or embellishments, opt for simpler jewelry. Conversely, if your attire is more understated, you can afford to choose more eye-catching pieces.
Choosing the right jewelry as a wedding guest can elevate your entire look. With these tips and recommendations, you’re guaranteed to shine!
