Want to win the Most Considerate Bride Award? Dress your bridesmaids in an easy-to-wear neutral. We understand that what reads as "classic" and "understated" in real life can seem too drab if you (and your wedding) have lots of style and personality, so we suggest adding a pop of color in the form of a bright accessory. You can't go wrong with a statement necklace, but also consider a brooch, vibrant shoes, or a colorful belt (rather than the standard contrasting satin sash). And bully for you if the bridesmaids can wear the accessory again later, but since you're the one requiring them to have it, do the right thing and foot the bill yourself. You'll be a shoo-in for that award...
See, it works!
For her bridesmaids, Andrea paired black dresses by BCBG Max Azria with blue heels by Chinese Laundry, headbands by J.Crew, and Spanish lace fans.
