Make X have the tidy appearance of XFCE without installing/running it?

I'm running fluxbox on my personal laptop, but I have XFCE4 installed on my girlfriend's computer.  All of her GTK apps look so nice.  Just about everything on it is very appealing.  Is there some sort of skin, neat trick, etc. that I could incorporate into what I am using to get the same appearance?

Try a few GTK themes, specifically the one(s) XFCE is using, and see which one(s) you like.

And under fluxbox you can use gtk-chtheme or a similar app to set your GTK theme and font.
