About Mrs. Lox

All That Glitters

January 30th, 2011 @ 11:10 am by Mrs. Lox

Today I thought we might talk about my wedding ensemble some more. We have discussed my shoes and my dress. And today I thought perhaps we could talk about my jewelry. This was like an epic journey for me. I’d love to show you pictures of all of the contenders, but frankly I don’t think any of us have the patience for that many links. So instead I’ll show you what I got.

I would like to say that my task was a bit harder than I imagined. There are pretty sparkly things all over the Interwebs. However, most of them have a silver tone to them. Because of the rich shade of ivory my dress will be, that just wasn’t workable. I had to have gold. And I hunted for a long time before finally settling on this really unique set. (Yes, set. Yes, I’m matchy. No, I’m not interested in a 12-step program. I kinda like it this way.)

The jewelry I ended up buying came from Etsy (of course) seller Jurgita Handmade.

Necklace and earrings

Now seems like an excellent time to tell you that I find it extremely difficult to take pictures of myself in the mirror that show off the jewelry well and also do not have a giant cell phone in the middle. I’ll assume I’m forgiven for the ridiculous pose above now that you have all of the facts. Also, is that not a stunning set of jewelry? I’m quite smitten!

Bracelet

(No, that isn’t dirt on my wrist. It’s just my birthmark.)

A picture of the overall ensemble. Was unable to avoid the cell phone in the shot. Told you I suck at this!

I want to leave you with an affirmation of how much I love you. I changed my shirt and my hair just so you could have a realistic vision of how this might look with my dress on the big day. No, really. I have evidence.

This is what I looked like before I decided to have a little photo shoot. I do it all for you.

Have you decided on your jewelry yet? If so, where did you find it?

Clearly I am responsible for the pictures in this post. I’d hate for someone else to take the blame.

LOVE it! (I might be biased though, as I was thinking about that set for myself!) I think it will look fantastic with your dress!

That is a gorgeous set!! They must look lovely against your dress.

Also, I love your hair all pulled back; it’s so pretty. :) It’s awesome that you’d do that just for us!

My jewelry hunt was quite the saga as well. I ended up finding the perfect earrings at Kmart of all all places! I love your set. And matchy-matchy isn’t against the law… Sometimes it just works!
