Kate Middleton may have worn the tiara of the decade when she wed Prince William in April 2011, but not all tiaras come from the Tower of London. Nor do you have to be a member of the royal family to wear one. As the bride, you will reign over your wedding day, no matter what you wear. But don't forget the tiara, which can add a touch of elegance to your look.

What Princess Kathryn wore was the Cartier "Halo" tiara that was created in 1936 for the wife of King George VI, who was later known as the Queen Mother. The tiara was a gift that King George gave his bride just prior to his ascension to the throne of England. The tiara next appeared as a gift for the 18th birthday present of the heir apparent, then-Princess Elizabeth, now the Queen of England. Perhaps as a sign of affirmation, Princess Kathryn was afforded the honor of borrowing the tiara to wear for her nuptials.

Today's bride does not have to wait for a nod from her future grandmother-in-law to wear a tiara. There are many tiaras can that can enhance your look.

· Start with something lavish, like an embellished silver tiara that starts low on the sides, but rises to a peak. It dazzles with gems and rhinestone and a silvertone base.

· One that looks a little less like a crown, but still sparkles in the hair is a silver tiara that features rhinestone scroll detail, crystals and pearls. It may not be a crown, but it gets the message across that you are in command of your day.

· A style that is less regal, but carries the weight of a crown is a silver floral tiara that features an open buttercup vine design. It is created with faux pearls and Swarovski crystal rhinestones.

· For the look of a princess,cartier love bangle bracelet, consider the elegant rhodium tiara embellished with round cut rhinestones.

· Looking to make a subtler statement? Check out the mid-height tiara, adorned with pearls and crystals.

· If you want to replicate Princess Kathryn's look, combine whatever tiara you select with a veil. Let the tiara anchor your veil as it drapes over your face and when it's pulled back as you come face to face with your groom.

Hair Do

If you have your heart set on wearing a tiara, you need to choose a hairstyle that best supports the tiara you have selected. It should also reflect the gown you are wearing.

One of the best things about a tiara is that you can wear one no matter how long or short your locks. A simple tiara worn on a short cut is a fabulous way to dress up short hair. With short locks, you do not have the ability to create elaborate curls or upswept hair. A tiara may prove just the accent you need to bring a formal look to your hair.

If you have long hair, there are almost limitless options. Use the tiara like a headband to pull your hair off of your face. If you are wearing your hair half up and half down, let the tiara anchor the part that is lifted. Another option is wearing your hair all up, which certainly makes the tiara a dramatic part of your look.

To be sure you get the look you want, bring a clip or two when you go shopping for your tiara so you can simulate the hairstyle you want. Pull your hair up and then try on the tiara. Or sweep your hair back and then add the tiara. But do not stop there. When it comes to firming up your hair-do for your wedding day, be sure you show your tiara to your hairstylist. In fact, you should bring it with you when you visit your hairdresser for a pre-wedding consultation. A good hairstylist will know what works for you - and the design of tiara you selected. A full up-do should have a mid to tall tiara. If you want to wear your hair down and loose, or if you have short hair, look for a lower rise tiara.

Match your Gown

Finally,cartier love bangle, try to select a tiara that is in keeping with your wedding gown. The dress and tiara should complement each other - rather than one overwhelming the other. Some tiaras are far more ornate and dramatic than others. If your wedding dress is simple, look for a simple tiara. But if your wedding dress is dramatic and ornate, choose an ornate tiara that won't get lost and overwhelmed by your dress. Look for one with lots of height and intricacy.

Remember, this is your wedding day. If you want to command the day, try a tiara on for size.
