Shoes

Shoes are essential for girls and boys alike. Boys, don't forget to use shoe polish to look sharp. Girls, be realistic. If you're not used to wearing high heels, choose a medium-height heel, or your evening could be ruined by painful feet. Chunky sandals are in, so why not pick a trendy pair of wedges to maximise height and minimise discomfort?

Jewellery

Make your dress and jewellery clash - that is, if you choose a simple dress, go for statement jewellery, and vice versa. Wear a simple silver chain if you have an elaborate dress, or a bold, chunky necklace if you're wearing something simpler. Earrings instantly lift an outfit - go dangly if you wear your hair up and have a simple neckline; studs go well with a patterned dress. A dramatic bangle will add glamour and sophistication.
