A bold bracelet is great if you want to buy just one piece as you'll want to skip the necklace and rings when you have something so dramatic on your arm. Look for a piece with a similar feel to your dress, you won't look matchy-matchy, you want your bracelet and your dress to be in harmony not competing for attention.

Chunky Rings
Jennifer Lopez's dress and bag are so embellished, jewellery would be overkill, but going to simple on the ring wouldn't blend with the rest of her get up; Brittany Snow's ring is simple and elegant and balances well with the jewel-encrusted shoulders she's sporting; Scarlett Johansson's bright dress gives her license to play around with a colourful accessory, and she's smartly kept her nails neutral.

Retro and romantic, but definitely not subtle, these bold rings are perfect if you have a fussy or high neckline or have opted for a longer sleeved dress.
