    Linda I really like it BUT I think it might be rather heavy to wear.

    Evening all btw ! :D

    I was wondering that, I'm not even sure I should bother with a necklace for my party dress, might be better with just some fake diamond earrings :confused:
    HELP!!!!!!

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.

    Love the necklace too Linda, but I definitely couldn't carry it off. I'm too staid....
    YOUR = belonging to you (your coat); YOU'RE = you are (I hope you're ok)

    really....it's not hard to understand :T

    I think with such a stunning dress you should definitely go easy on the accessories - killer shoes, diamond earrings, maybe a sparkly bracelet?

    Depending on the neckline I'd go for the earrings. Diamond studs or drops, whether fake or not, always look classy :D

    Linda, I usually love the jewellery you post but frankly that necklace looks like my jewellery box if you shake it all up then put it on at once... sorry...

    I think you're absolutely right Snaggs, I have a perfect bracelet, just want some lovely sparkly earrings and the perfect shoes.

    For once I'm going to get my hair and nails done on the day too! :T

    It's very rare that I go out so I'm going for it in a BIG way
