Brides wearing strapless gowns...please show me your jewelry!

I'm wearing a strapless gown and I'm not sure what type of jewelry I should wear. Necklace, earrings, bracelet, or no necklace, just earring and bracelet. The bodice of my gown has crystals, and I was afraid if it would be too overpowering.

If you can post pics, that would be great. Thanks!

Edited to add pic of the bodice detail:

My gown is strapless and beaded, so no necklace for me. I'm thinking a bracelet - although I hate wearing bracelets, and I want earrings with blue - but the ones I love are backordered.

My dress also has crystals at the top of the dress. I'm wearing a diamond pendant. I wanted to wear something simple, but elegant. I think something small and simple would add to the dress. I think it's nice to wear a necklace with a strapless gown, but anything too huge might be overdoing it.

Thanks everyone! I was thinking something small as well, definitely not overpowering.

Sasha, I love your set!

I bought this set for my BM but I think it would go nice with your gown also.

I don't have a strapless dress, but here are earrings I am considering if I don't wear a necklace. I

think they would look great with a strapless dress. I got them at Saks, but they also have them at Perfect Details
