Sailors and the new rough rider hats
look well on short journeys, but for a
long journey it is well to find some hat
with no brim behind, as ii is impossible
to rest the head at all in stiff straw
which projects as far behind ms il does
over the eyes. And n little straw toque
Is n very smart and very comfortable
travelling hat.
Miniatures are always n sign OF ele-
gance. Brooch pins of fancy heads sur
rounded by pearls or pearls and dia-
monds are occasionally seen.
Turquoise is one of the prettiest gems
worn. The exquisite shade of blue
whitens the wearer's hand by contrast,
and its presence is distinguished at
greater distance than almost any other
stone.
Cream-white, scarlet, old rose, plum
red and golden-brown satin ribbons
from three and one-half to five inches
in width, arranged in high spreading
choux or fan-plaitings, are seen upon
some new midsummer round hats,
showing no other additional trimmings
of flowers, foliage, etc. Another fancy
Is complete wreath of short, very full
ostrich tips, set around the crowns of
shepherdess hats of chip or Milan braid.
In the center is an airy tower of lisse
surrounded by prince of Wales Gus
ter of fluffy sable plumes. Black
zephyr straw picture hats are lavishly
trimmed with orange-yelow tulle, and
very expensive pearl, gold and onyx
pins are thrust among the standing and
falling black feathers set at the left
side.
The women who ride and play polo
apparently live in their riding habits,
for the skirts are so conveniently cut
that they can he gatheredu up at one side
with ease when getting off the horse,
and the, long boots show to great adj
vantage at such times.
TrousseauN contain nightrobes of
white silk, and young women who can
afford this sort of thing are having
them made in all conceivable shades of
| light silk. Delicate blue and pale vel
| low silks make exceedingly pretty
| gowns. They may be deliberately
| trimmed with lace, if one desires. The
/
| flowing sleeves. the revcrs and collar
being embroidered with flowers traced
N their natural colors. Lace is used as
a yoke, the silk falling in graceful folds.
8ufiles of silk, edged with fine lace, are
popular form of finish.
One of the daintiest selections which
IAN be made for n pure white gown
COR evening wear is water-lily crepe de
thine over white tafTeta, with guimpe
md elbow sleeves of white lace. For a
slender figure twice-around sash of
foft white silk or crepe de chine, deep
~ fringed at the edges, is still-prevail-
ing addition. The same model, repeat
ed in black crepe de chine, forms nota-
bly, graceful and elegant gown.
One of the modes which promises ia
be increasingly favored among fall fam
cies is the princess dress of old-time
outlines. Fashion moves ever in a cir
Gle. and returns to previous points OF
departure AT erratic intervals. The
princess idea has been transformed and
embellished until often ii is scarcely
recognizable. With women of elegant
figure, however. il will be seen in fault
less simplicity and made of rich and
beautiful fabrics, needing but the
slightest additional enhancing in the
matter of decoration. Very frequently
| the princess effect on coming styles
will be simulated. while the bodice and
skirt separately fashioned and finished
will unite beneath II quaint girdle. n
