QUESTION
When you guys wear chooriyan/bangles and jewelery with a formal desi outfit, do you make sure they match the outfit very accurately?

If the outfit is multiple colors, I concentrate on jewelery of the color that is the least manifested in the outfit. For example, for my friends wedding I got a blue, black & silver outfit. The most prominent color is blue (the skirt and the dupatta), then black (the blouse) and the silver is just a little part of the work on both the skirt and blouse. So I was thinking of wearing silver jewelry and bangles because they'd stand out instead of blending in. But someone said I should wear jewelery that is at least two of the colors of my outfit, and bangles that cover all the colors. I do have jewelery and bangles in all the colors but I feel like they wouldn't stand out, especially because I'm pinning the entire blue dupatta in a way that covers my arms because the outfit is a short sleeved outfit. So silver bangles would look like I'm wearing something different, instead of just blue, black and silver ones. Because the other two colors dim the silver and it doesn't end up showing much.

Any suggestions? Oh and what color shoes should I get? The skirt is also blue but with silver work. Again the blue is most prominent... and so I don't know.. silver shoes I guess?
