Which hairstyle, headpiece, jewellery?

I've got the dress and the coat and have ordered shoes.
But I'm lost for the hairstyle and accessories.
Could you help me out with some suggestions?
I'll add the photos of what I have/ordered.

My hair is light brown and I have a bob which is almost down to my shoulders.

I would wear a beautiful headband or simple Tiara type thing. No veil. Hair I'd have either fíen or if you can sweep into a simple chignon.
Alternatively that's quite a 40s style, so a simple fascinating style or hat with face veil.

Down and fascinator! Jeez must proofread!
Those are from Etsy by the way.

@mondaytosunday I thought fien was a fancy style I'd never heard of 😁😁

Yes I think definitely hair down, my jawline is too squidgy for a hair up these days.

Those headpieces listed are both really nice and I agree keep it simple but I just wanted to say what an absolutely beautiful dress. What sort of flowers are you having if any?

McQueensMuse · 27/10/2023 23:20

@Bedazzling good point, I'd forgotten all about flowers!
Any ideas on flowers also welcome!

Thank you, I love the dress so much too.
It's from nobodys child.

I love your outfit! So beautiful.
I would go hair down, with a flower crown. You need a touch of green.

Thank you @BaronessBomburst

Do you think I need a necklace or earrings?
I'm not a big jewellery person really.

No, keep it simple. Stud (creamy pearl or diamond) earrings for a bit of sparkle, or no earrings and a simple pendant to flatter the neckline of the dress.

McQueensMuse · 28/10/2023 15:37

Yeah I think I'll go for just earrings and no necklace.
Drop earrings if I don't/can't choose a headpiece and studs if wear something on my head.

I ordered quite a few clips/hair pieces and they all looked like they were from the front of a magazine for 5 year old girls! I went with vintage pearls and nothing for my hair.

There are a few that are overly sparkly and just look wrong.

But I think that my dress is so plain that when I'm sitting at the table I'll just look like I'm out for a work lunch wearing a cream blouse 😂

So I think I do need something on my head, Although chances are high that the toddler boy will just rip it off.
