Veil to go with my dress *flash*

I'm having this dress: /maggie-sottero?style=4MS843

Tried this veil on with the dress:

The bottom layer of the veil has beads that form a flower, which branch off from the scalloped edge, and isn't on the second layer.

I don't really know much about veils but do they go together or should I look for something else? I don't want a floor length as I've been to weddings when the bride has one and I don't like how they have to be rearranged all the time.

Should I go for something more plain?

    Love your dress, but I think you need a shorter more simple veil. Could you have one like this:

    I would prefer a longer veil since it will help cover the pigmentation marks on my back more.

    I agree with Pammy, the length of this one doesn't look right with the dress detail to me; it's ending slap bang in the most detailed part of the dress. It needs to be longer or (preferably) shorter I'd say. Is that 'fingertip length'? Maybe look for an elbow length one. This will cover up your bare back & shoulders but end higher than the detail on the dress.

    Thanks for the honest opinion. Only problems is that there is still a lot of detail at the top of the dress and having it at my elbow will still be the same. The detail only starts to thin out around my knees.

    Maybe I will have to go for a longer veil so it doesn't cut into the detail?
