Hello, My daughter's color scheme is very light blue, copper and ivory. I bought a pair of pearl and light blue topaz earrings that I wanted to give my daughter to wear at her wedding. I figured the earrings would not only be "new" but also be "something blue". However, my aunt is questioning what I bought and says that diamond earrings would be better and she has the perfect pair for my daughter to wear. She also says the bridesmaids are wearing copper dresses which will not coordinate with my blue earrings. This hurts my feelings as I thought I had made a good choice in purchasing these pearl and topaz earrings. Is it inappropriate to wear the pearl and topaz?

Congratulations on your daughter's wedding! It is totally appropriate for her to wear pearl and blue topaz earrings, which coordinates with the entire color scheme perfectly. You might want to try gently to convince your aunt without hurting her feelings. However, if she offers diamond earrings for your daughter to wear, let the bride try them on on and decide: she is the "star of the show". The key is to use some creative diplomacy and not hurt anybody's feelings before the wedding. Irina Feygin, IMpeccable iMage, Inc. Image and Beauty and For Princess Bride
With all due respect, I don't know if I would leave the decision to the bride. That may put the young lady in a tough position. And, after all, you are the mother. Maybe letting your aunt know that, while you appreciate all her help and great advice, you'd really like to give your daughter this special gift, from mother to daughter on her wedding day, which is pretty traditional. maybe allow her some other role or project.
