1976. It was narrated that 'Aishah said: "Usāmah stumbled at the threshold of the door and cut his face. The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'Remove the harm (the blood) from him,' but I was repulsed by that. He started to suck the blood and remove it from his face, then he said: 'If Usāmah were a girl, I would have adorned him and dressed him until I married him off.'" (Da'if)
1976 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا شَرِيكٌ، عَنِ الْعَبَّاسِ بْنِ ذُرَيْحٍ، عَنِ الْبَهِيِّ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ: عَثَرَ أُسَامَةُ بِعَتَبَةِ الْبَابِ، فَشُجَّ فِي وَجْهِهِ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «أَمِيطِي عَنْهُ الْأَذَى» ، فَتَقَذَّرْتُهُ، فَجَعَلَ يَمُصُّ عَنْهُ الدَّمَ وَيَمُجُّهُ عَنْ وَجْهِهِ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: «لَوْ كَانَ أُسَامَةُ جَارِيَةً لَحَلَّيْتُهُ وَكَسَوْتُهُ حَتَّى أُنَفِّقَهُ»

It is permissible to adorn girls with jewelry and nice clothes. But this should not be a frequent habit, so they have the inclination to simplicity as well. Of course, there is no harm in dressing up nicely for weddings and 'Eid celebrations etc., and to use the relevant adornment up to a certain limit.
