What kind of earrings question.

I’m attending a formal long gown function in a couple weeks. My dress is strapless, with lots of rhinestones on the bodice. The rhinestones aren’t clear, so clear rhinestone earrings won’t work, maybe. They have color in them, clear, pink, blue, lavendar…depends how you turn it and it’s very faint…but not clear. I will wear long earrings, no necklace of course. Maybe just silver, or something the color of the dress? Not sure.

I found these, but don’t want to pay $64. Would that be too much rhinestone?

I think you may need to find a swarovski crystal called Aurora Borealis. Similar to these: www.■■■■■■■■/listing/191908659/chandelier-earrings-bridal-earrings?ga_order=most_relevant&ga_search_type=all&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_search_query=swarovski%20crystal%20earrings&ref=sr_gallery_1 What is the color of the dress? Do you want a gold or silver setting?

Amazon has pages of AB earrings:

A silver setting. I think you guys are on to something…thanks!

I was doing a sartorial consult with a friend a few days ago and tried seven different pairs of earrings with my dress. To my surprise, simple pearls totally set off the dress. I’d thought the flashy glass beads that were the same colors would be better but they just drew their own attention as opposed to enhancing. So my advice: try what you’ve got, something may work.

What dmd said. You might not need the dangly stuff at all!

At a certain point in life’s journey some of us might have a weaker chin line…dangling earrings call attention to this. If

You cqn never go wrong with pearls, in my opinion.

I had thought of pearls as well. Maybe a simple pearl drop.

Check out Nordtrom Rack. Dd got beautiful matching earrings to match her gown. Your dress sounds quite similar to hers.

Thanks, I will!
