The corsage is trimmed in a similar style, the lace arranged as a berthe cape, and the trimming of the sleeves falling a little below it. The bouquet de corsage , or bouquet for the waist, is of the same flowers as the wreath, as is usual in full evening costume. Wreaths of purple heath, or the mingled blossoms of aquatic plants, are the most fashionable this season. The heath is worn with ringlets, and made to droop at the side, while the others form small bouquets.
Flowers are the most simple and natural ornaments a young lady can wear.
The form of the corsage is novel and striking. The sleeves are trimmed to correspond with the waist and skirt, being buttoned to the elbow. Delicate cuffs and collar of lace. The bonnet has a single plume, and is lined with a drawn blue ribbon. It will be noticed that the muff' in the fashion plate is of ermine, which is in favor this winter, although sables and stone martin are more generally worn ermine being so successfully counterfeited that the real can scarce be told from the imitation.
