How to accessorise a red dress?

Well for my school formal (similar to prom) i am wearing a red strapless dress that is fairly plain and it is a blue red as opposed to an orange red. It is a cool red and quite bright but i have no idea how to accessorise it. what are your ideas

I have fair skin and brown hair about halfway down my back

Any ideas for hair and accessories would be great :)

Update:

The dress is not suitable for a belt and is strapless so only slight indent between the breasts

Update 2:

oh and i don't have my ears pierced :)

    Necklaces always does the magic. If your dress is suitable for belt, then go for it. I go for a black belt since no other colours stands out with red. A black clutch will also look nice with the dress.

    And hair, I can't help you with that sorry. Haha. I'm quite bad at hairstyling. My friends does the hair for me for special occasions. :P

    I suggest nothing that will confuse the neckline like necklaces try for a cut e pair of earrings like crystal,black, no color that will compete with the brightness. To top it off i would have a cute neutral colored clutch and black shoes.

    Since red is a bold color, try a simpler color like silver for the jewlry

    A white bow belt.

    only look for a bigger flower. and make the lace black and the flower red, so you could wear black high heeled sandals. you may up-do your hair...
