How to accessorize a navy blue dress for a wedding?
Dressing up for an important event like a wedding is a must. Showing up underdressed may appear rude for the wedded, and you might just end up disappointing them. When attending a wedding, it’s always a must to appear ravishing yet simple, so you can be a head-turner in the crowd. But of course not too much —- the bride is the main character on the wedding day, right?
Usually, wedding dresses come in pastel colours. From beige to baby pink, the palettes just shout purity, calmness, and joy. Yet, if ever the wedded requires you to wear a bold colour such as navy blue, or if it is your choice to wear one, how do you make it appear its best? Perhaps, wearing a revealing cut will do the magic, or if not so comfortable, you may opt to accessorize it!
Earrings to match a navy blue dress?
Earrings give you a boost, especially around your face area. They provide you with an additional glow as it radiates and reflects light.
You may have gem stud, chandelier, teardrop, or wire hook earrings with navy blue gems on them. They create a classic and sophisticated look, bringing that iconic vibe, especially around your facial features. However, if you’re not into gems, drop and hoop earrings in rose gold can also give you a pleasant and elegant look to upscale your navy blue outfit.
Necklace to match a navy blue dress?
This accessory is great for those who will wear dresses that are off-shoulder. As it shows some of your skin especially within the neck area, adding a necklace can let your skin shine together with your navy blue outfit.
You may want to go simple and try some locket, pendant, or charm necklaces. Still, if you want to go beyond simple, you may go for a matinee, princess, or festoon necklaces to amplify your aura (but be sure to use darker shades of blue for the gems).
Bangles to match a navy blue dress?
One of the best accessories to pair with your navy blue dress are bangles. These are big and round bracelets, typically designed to provide you a luxurious and bolder look that goes well with the dress’ colour. You can put it on your wrist, or look like a goddess by placing big and enticing ones on your upper arm. However, you should be careful with picking the colour of the bangle. The best would be gold or rose gold, as they can complement your dress’ colour.
Footwear to match a navy blue dress?
You cannot use any footwear for your dress. One tip would be wearing something heeled, but be sure not to use wedges —- they’re so outdated!
Espadrilles, pumps, and stilettos are the perfect footwear nowadays, especially since they look glamorous and without a doubt elegant. Nevertheless, it is always important to remember to choose the perfect colours that go with the dress; off-white, black, and navy blue come best with your navy blue dress. On another note, you must remember that if you choose open footwear, be sure to use simple colours for your nail polish. Thus, go with neutral and cool colours and make sure to clean and moisturize those feet!
Other tips:
– DO NOT OVER-ACCESSORIZE!
– Choose between a necklace or an earring, going for both can look too overwhelming
– Wear a neutral-coloured lipstick as navy blue is already a bold colour
– Always feel confident and attractive
Follow these tips and look and feel best in your navy blue dress!
