Need help - Bridesmaid DOJ - suggestions?

What do you girls think about the black necklace used in this pic? Is it wedding appropriate?

This is the BM dress in the exact colors....

If you don't think something similar to this DOJ in black would work - what might you suggest?

honestly, i don't think the necklace in the photo is wedding-appropriate.

I would do a CZ pendant of some sort instead

IMO it would not be right for a wedding. I think anything in a silver colored metal would look nice

I don't think its necessarily inappropriate but I don't think it would look right on every girl because its so big. I am small witha short torso and I would hate to have to wear something like that...just not my taste. I think a safer choice like something crystal or black onyx is a better choice. Good luck!

i agree about the size, something that bold wont work well on a petite person...how about something like these???

i agree with the previous posters - it would be much on me if i were a bm as i am short and thin

I would go with something smaller in black like the pictures a PP put up, something thinner and not so chunky looking

Thanks girls, I was also thinking the same way - this particular piece is overwhelming.

I'm still unsure if I should consider a smaller black piece - or steer towards something silver toned.

I think something black could be sophisticated if it was the right piece.....thoughts?

idk, for a july wedding, i would want to pick up the silvery color of the fabric more than the black in the sash. Personally, i might go with sparkle. maybe CZ and white gold?

I really like the idea of doing black, I think that silver is the norm and I think the black will really make the black on the dress pop and match perfectly with that dress. I also think that something silver will get lost with the bold ness of the sash.

BTW: LOVE that dress

what about something with black and silver in it? or a black pearl necklace? I found those two at Overstock.com.
