The fun thing about fringe dresses is that they can be worn to special occasions or totally dressed down. Whatever the occasion you can look like a celebrity for less.

Take a note from Whitney and dress up your arms with bangle bracelets. Bangles give a tribal feeling to your fringe dress. Do try printed bangles that have tribal prints or colors like the Forever21 Painted Pressed Bangles (first on the right...$6.80) or the Aldo GALLUZZI bangles (last on the right...$18). To go with the tribal them do sandals that have bead work on them. If your willing to shell out some cash do the Cauzzie Aztec Beaded Sandals (bottom right....$175). These shoes are not only perfect because of the bead work but because they have a little tassel on them that really gives the whole tribal vibe to it. These small details really stand out and make a difference. If your looking for a total steal the Qupid Cairo At Akira (the middle pair...$50) are perfect to pull the whole tribal look. You want to pick beadings that stand out like Whitney did. Don't worry, if your not a high heel girl do a flat sandal that has beading work on it.

Glam the whole look together by adding a glitter bag. Do pick a bag that matches the dress or your accessories. When doing a white dress still with a silver bag unless doing a gold jewelry. Black dress....black bag.

Have fun with this look. Don't be afraid to play with accessories and even play around with some feathered accessories, like a feathered earrings and hair clips.
