SAN FRANCISCO,
CA, -- You’ve rounded up your best friend, your college
roommate, Debbie from the cubicle next to you and family prankster
cousin Suzy. You found the perfect dress that you promise they can
wear again. But how do you avoid having a flock of matchy-matchy
girls that have no individuality walk down your aisle? Through
their accessories – beautiful handmade jewelry that is personalized
to each girl.
|
By shopping at the online store of
Dasha
Boutique, a San Francisco-based jewelry studio, each bridesmaid
can have the accessories that uniquely flatters her coloring, bone
structure or personality.
Necklaces,
earrings and
bracelets of semi-precious stones and 18K, sterling silver or
gold-filled metals are displayed on the website and all are
available to be
customized by stone, findings (earring posts), metals or
length. Turn-around time is quick – jewelry can be delivered in 3
business days.
|
This jewelry is perfect for the bride that selects one
fabric and allows each bridesmaid to choose the design of
the dress that best suits her figure. Dasha Boutique can create necklaces or earrings, for
example, that complement each neckline. Fill a plunge with a
longer necklace; offset a sweetheart neckline with some chandelier
earrings.

|
“We’ve worked with so many brides who want to give the jewelry as a
gift to each bridesmaid but wanted to be sure it really matched each
girl,” explains Creative Director Cathy Pitts. ”
|
“We really
understand that your wedding is your special day and no
bride should have to settle for something that isn’t
perfect,” she adds.
|
A few ways to
make your bridesmaids unique are to:
|
-
Use
color creatively
– have your jewelry act as a complement to the dress
color. Spark up pastels with deep garnets or
amethysts. Conversely, set off jewel tones like teal
and emerald green with the frosty sheen of chalcedony..
|
 |
-
Be
dramatic with
black and
white
– while pearls are the classic bridesmaid accessory. Be
more modern by choosing a different type of pearl other
than the classic cultured pearl – black dresses
highlighted by cascading keishi pearl chandelier
earrings or a simple coin pearl necklace. White-dressed
bridesmaids can accentuate themselves with deep black
onyx bracelets or luminous moonstones which seem to glow
from within.

 |
-
Use
different lengths for different necklines
- a big trend in bridesmaid dresses is choosing the
fabric but letting each bridesmaid chose the style of
her gown. Use the same idea in jewelry – select one
stone and let each bridesmaid choose the necklace or
earrings that best accentuate their neckline. Low cut
gowns can handle long length necklaces like a
46” rock crystal and sterling necklace or
lariats while higher cut dresses can wear a fresh
water pearl choker. Or skip the necklace all together
and just wear a great pair of earrings – citrine
briolette earrings have three cascading rings of
citrines culminating in a single citrine drop – a
showstopper for sure.

“The other
customization options we offer include things like choice of
metals and findings for the earrings. If you have bridesmaids that
prefer lever backs over ear wires, it’s an easy change for us to
make,” advises Cathy Pitts. “Jewelry is such a wonderful keepsake
from being a bridesmaid. We really enjoy helping brides to make
sure it’s absolutely perfect.”
