Choose your jewelry up front. You know the ceremonies that line up to your Muhurtham. So decide what you wanna wear and when. Obviously there is going to be more than one piece. Do you wanna go all temple jewelry? Do you wanna do a mix of antique and temple jewelry?

If you are choosing diamonds, you can add emerald or ruby jewelry too in the mix. This bride has chosen the emerald mix. You can see that the gold she has used on her earrings and the matha patti does not clash with her diamond jewelry.

This is a perfect Mallu bride. With heavy gold jewelry. Try to layer your jewelry till the part where your waist band is tied. More layers tends to make it way overboard.

If you are confused about your jewelry layering, these are some easy pointers. Yellow gold with temple jewelry works. Only temple jewelry or temple jewelry mixed with antique gold jewelry works very well. If you are layering your diamond jewelry or thinking of mixing your gold and diamond jewelry go for it, but make sure one kind of jewelry does not go above the other. Create a balance. Make sure your garlands do not block your jewelry out. So essentially have a statement choker.
