On the fringe

While we don't suggest donning a full-length sheer contraption like this, we are huge fans of simple, solid-colored (not see-through!) dresses in eye-catching colors. A gorgeous electric shade of blue is almost universally flattering. Check out ASOS' Shoulder Pad Slash Neck Body Con Dress ($44.44), which will give you a hint of Lady Gaga's flair for drama with its bold shoulders. Just because Lady Gaga takes the fringe to the extreme doesn't mean that it's totally off limits: Look at the fringe necklaces at Etsy shop Norwegian Wood, which will be reopening in a few weeks.

Black and white

Accessories are the focal point of this off-the-wall ensemble. Skip the shiny leggings and midriff-baring top, and start with simple black pants and top. The shape of the accessories is key here. Grab an oversized rectangular bag such as Lulu's City Sophisticate Bag ($44) -- don't be afraid of a little color! -- and slip on some pointy toe pumps like Newport News' Pointy-toe Satin Pump ($39 on sale from $49). Tie it all together with a scarf with a fun black and white print -- for instance, the Lola Checkered Scarf from Dillard's ($8) or ASOS' Animal Shimmer Square Scarf ($20.51). We'd suggest wearing the scarf around your neck, though.

White on white

Rock the monochromatic look with an all-white outfit like Lady Gaga. Begin with a funky white dress. Check out Modcloth's Immaculate Confection Dress ($59.99), which has studs to give you a hint of rock star. Top the look off with a slightly more subdued hair accessory such as the Corsage Headband from Topshop ($15).
