How to add color to a black dress for a marti gras party?

I bought a tight black dress that hits my fingertips, and it has a few sequin strips around the torso and it kind of folds and scrunches throughout the dress, not knowing that it was a mardi gras party. I already bought shoes, which are patent black flats, so they're also very plain. And now I'm looking for a way to add more color so it's less boring.. any tips or suggestions? By the way, I'm 13. So please keep all suggestions age-appropriate. Thanks!

  • i'm also 13, what a coincidence lol (:

    well anyway, you can put some colorful earrings. lots of bracelets and a nice popping necklace. you could also put a belt on your dress (of some bright color) or a sash/ribbon and tie it in a bow. Also have a headband! I love headbands and u can put on a nice colorful one. i mean everything goes with black. i'm not trying to get u on fashion police, but do u get what i'm saying? Like all the colors sort of need to match, like only use greens, yellows, and purples, except for the ribbon which can be pink! You could also paint ur nails in those colors! Or have a cute bag! Well, hope this helps and have fun!

    What kind of party is this?? Birthday? Sounds like fun (:

  • The black dress sounds like it has stuff going on so I would not add more to it like a belt. I would wear fun accessories...think mardi gras colors of silver, blues, purples...maybe getting a bunch of bangles of these colors would look cute.

    You may want to add a fun colorful bag as well.

  • One word, Accessories! Any plain black dress can become fabulous with good accessories. I would think big chunky colorful necklaces, braclets and hair accessories. I don't know if you can wear a belt with this dress, but a thick belt would add a nice splash of color. Add a matching purse if you can.

    Mi Kindle que he comprado en Amazon esta excelente y estoy muy contenta de él, tanto que también he comprado uno para regalar, un excelente regalo por poco dinero, mi amiga esta fascinada con su nuevo dispositivo, pude leer en cualquier lugar, sin interrupciones y es como leer un libro de verdad pero sin papel y peso.

  • Bracelets, earrings and necklaces but all the same colour obvs!

  • well you could wear red tights like this girl has http://lookbook.nu/files/looks/large/862846__0000....

    or you could wear a statement necklace in a bright colour.

  • try accesorizing and wear brighter makeup
