You don’t need me to tell you that the holiday season means iCals are filled with back-to-back luncheons and festive cocktail parties. Since I’m typically running to an event straight from the office, I’ve created a sort of quick-change kit at my desk. My formula for amping up an entire look—because I’m usually in a black turtleneck and denim—includes applying a ruby-red lip (my secret sauce to looking more done-up than I actually am) and throwing on a big ol’ sparkly pair of earrings. Sure, this particular pair is astronomically priced, but we’re talking almost 18 carats of glittering draped diamonds(!) set in white gold. Think of all the holiday dresses I wouldn’t have to buy each year. It almost makes the Dauphine Fluid earrings a worthy investment, if you really think about it.
