Why it works

Hot pink sequins with a feather hem — a dress that admits it's the main event. The save is the slingbacks: a bow-topped party shoe you'll wear twice a year stays high street in every rail, feathers or no feathers. The watch is where the grown-up money goes, because it's the one thing in frame you'll still own at forty.
