Accessorize Your Satin Bridal Gown

Our featured bridal gown this week was a stunning satin ballgown by Robert Bullock. "Bloom" is perfect for the bride who wants to make a sleek and sophisticated statement on her big day. With so many pictures on Pinterest of brides in lace dresses, Bloom is a way to stand out from the crowd by looking modern and timeless all at once. 

Of course, a simple dress like this one still begs to be accessorized. Take a look at our versatile styling ideas that enhance (rather than detract) from the elegant nature of this gown. 

Monochromatic

Black bridal sashes had their moment a few years ago before fading out. We think that this classy statement is one of the best ways to say "flirty" as well as "formal," so we're crossing our fingers for a comeback. If you want a look that is decidedly modern and always in style, try pairing your simple, ivory gown with a crisp, clean black sash.

Make A Statement
When a gown is this sleek and simple, you have more leeway when it comes to loud accessories. Don't be afraid to pack on the pearls or florals - your jewelry can make you shine even brighter on the big day.

Pop Of Color

Even the designer's website has this dress sampled with a fresh pop of mint green at the waistline - whether you are looking for a soft blush to match your bridesmaids or a navy to match your man, a simple gown is a great way to put your personality into this relatively simple dress. 

The best part? We have all these and more at Miss Ruby Boutique!

A visit from Diamond Nexus

Meg & Jennifer from Diamond Nexus paid a nice visit to Miss Ruby in preparation for the upcoming Miss USA pageant recently.  We were featured in their video on how to accessorize special occasion dresses.  Their diamonds were so gorgeous & we had such a great time working with them! Isn't our manager Kelli so cute?!!

Just in . . .

We just received a new selection of incredible earrings for maids and brides.  The new collection features timeless pearls, vintage sparkle and show stopping bling. You definitely need to see them in person!  The earrings are moderately priced and absolutely gorgeous and provide the perfect touch for any dress.

Wedding day bling

As we all know, more goes into completing an everyday outfit than simply the clothes, so by  no surprise more goes into your wedding day fashion than simply the dress. Jewelry is that extra something that polishes any look.

The first thing to remember when choosing your wedding day jewelry is less is more. A bride should never be outdone by her jewelry. It should simply compliment her and the dress.  Therefore, when choosing which precious metals to adorn, see what highlights your dress. For a white gown, gold embellishments may clash with the bright white hue, try pearl and/or platinum. A barely off-white gown can go with almost anything. It works with silver, gold, rose gold, and pearl to name a few. And finally, for those soft ivory gowns try gold jewelry, as it will highlight the creamy or yellow undertones of the dress.

As a must to remember with all things, jewelry being no exception, your wedding day style should be a reflection of you. If you don't feel comfortable wearing a certain piece of jewelry, don't wear it. If instead of huge chandelier earrings, you love studs...wear studs. Not into diamond chokers. Opt for a long string of pearls. When you are comfortable in all your bling, then your wedding day style is sure to shine!
