Bolero? Sash? Bolero/Sash Mix? HELP!

So, I've got a sketch for the sash I'm going to make. I'm thinking a tan/taupe/latte color for the actual satin sash, with feathered edges...

After seeing the boleros on BHLDN, I looked some up on ETSY. 
Here are a few I like, but I need help!!!!!

With the sketch above in mind (along with my dress and shoes - see below), does anyone have any favorites?

  


 This one runs about $36 from Australia. I like the cream-centered flower, but it's the type that you wrap around your neck and tie in the back (opposed to the ones that have sleeves).











This one runs for $77. 


 This one is $85. I like that it's two-toned, but I wonder if the lace and the sash will be too much.
This one is $83. The opaque fabric is raw silk.

  2. AAH! A PICTURE OF YOU IN YOUR DRESS!!!

    I think I'm partial to the second bolero (the $77 one I think?) - the sleeves, and especially the way it looks from the front is just so...you. And it's not too busy. I agree with you about some of the others being a little too much, with the flowers on the sash and all, it might be better to keep it simpler when it comes to decoration on the bolero.
