Bookkeeper Nell can’t afford the fashionable clothes she craves. Coworker Ethel says she’s been buying clothes and furs with money she’s made betting. Nell places a bet, wins, and buys a fancy hat with the money, only to have her new acquisition accidentally ruined by Jon Temple. Jon is a wealthy fashion designer and they begin a romance. To keep up appearances, Nell continues to gamble and has to take out loans to cover her losses. She narrowly avoids losing her job and vows to never gamble again. Jon, however, still loves her regardless of how much her dresses cost.
