Use long earrings to show off your neck and shoulders. Wear your hair back or up, to draw the eyes to the long lines of your neck. These go great with bare shoulders and scoop neck shirts and dresses.
Belts

Shoes
Try a whimsical use of shoes, by wearing unexpected shoe choices. For example, you could wear tennis shoes with a dress or wear spiked heel pumps with a pair of jeans. Draw attention to yourself by defying expectations.
