How to Accessorize With a Little White Dress

Although little black dresses aren't necessarily a thing of the past, little white dresses are taking over for spring. They're fun, flirty and bright, but accessorizing with them can be quite a challenge, especially when the wrong accessory will take the focus off the dress, or in some cases, turn a cute frock into a springtime nightmare.

Metallics are always a hit with little white dresses. They add a bit of sparkle and glamour without taking all the attention away from your simple attire. Whether you wear a pair of strappy, silver high heels, or use a gold bag, you can dazzle that dress with a hint of shine.

Bright, spring colors can really liven up a snow-colored dress. Try a pair of turquoise earrings or a pair of pink shoes. Maybe, you love scarves, but don't know exactly when it's appropriate to wear one. Well, fret no more, try a scarf with a golden hue for a look that will make you feel like it’s a beautiful spring day. If you're not a fan of yellow, opt for any spring shade that makes you happy.

Steer clear of black or brown, even though these colors match, there's way too much you can do with a little white dress to settle for neutral shades. Opt for bright colors that stand out, since you're basically working with a blank slate. Remember, if you want to compliment a white dress with something white, do something with very minimal white, such as a pair of white drop earrings, rather than a white purse. White shoes do work with a white dress, but if you want to have some fun, you can do shoes with a print, a bold color or with a bit of bling.

The bottom line with a white dress is just to have to fun with your look, whether that means adding a leopard print bag or wearing a pair of orange flip-flops.
