THE FADDISH GIRLS FANCIES.
A "Lavalliere" to Keep In Place the
Rolling Revers.
(New York Hel-ald.l


A little arrangement has been devised
to keep the rolling revers of a jacket in
place. This is called ''lavalliere" 1t
consists of short gold chain, very fine
and delicate in workmanship, about
twelve inches in length, having at the
end two crystal pendants. These pend
ants may be balls, pear-shapedy hearts,
four-leaf clOVerS or any design which
pleases the fancy of the purchaser.
They are in imitation of garnet, en-
erald, amethyst, topaz, pure white crys-
tai or of a color to suit a certain gown,
or one to go with many gowns. These
lavallieres are Worn knotted around
four-in-hand tie, fastened in lace
crayat, or across the front of the cor
sage, on the left or right side. But
the latest and most up-to-date use for
these. fads is fastening the open fronts
of the fancy bodices so fashionable to-
day. For the latter purpose is SHOWN a
little gold hook and eye, studded with
tiny brilliants. This hook and eye is
sewed to the sides of the open front,
the chain is looped through the eye,
and when the hook is fastened the
chain ends and the two pretty colored
crystal pendants bangle gracefully
among the full lace jabots of the vest
The present fad is that the neck and
belt buckles shall match, and very
pretty, dainty sets are shown in enam-
eled gilt, in floral designs, scrolls and
even yet some of the ever-popular four
leaf clovers. One of the new belt buck
les comes in the floral pattern, a flower
for every month-rose for June, holly
for December. lily for Easter chrys-
anthemum FOR October, and so on
through the calendar. Some are oXi-
died silver, some are in fire gilt, some
are in the natural colorings. A very
faddish buckle is a style called the
ceramic" an imitation of a lost art.
These buckles are as large as a silver
dollar, and are of dull, furnished
green, copied from some specimen
found in the ruins of Pompeii.- They
are set in a rope rim of dull Roman
gold, and lock as though they had just
been dug out of the ruins of the an
Gent city. AS they are comparatively
expensive, they are bound to be ex-
elusive. The neck buckles necessitate
soft, wide liberty satin ribbon, long
enough to go around the neck once and
then to be brought forward to the
front again and fastened to the left side
with the buckle. All ribbons around
the neck are devoid of bows and ends,
and are either tied in four-in-hand eff
feet or fastened with the buckle. The
belts are of wide liberty satin, and are
worn rather tight, so that when clasped
full wrinkled effect to the waist line.
OF course, this is all very well for slen-
der figures, but rather trying to the
stout woman. The old-fashioned bangle
bracelet is to the fore again-or, rath-
er, its idea, but in a new form. We
have been familiar all winter with the
large, heavy ring bracelet, which has
gone under the name of the Neither
sole" The upto-date girl must have
her Nethersole bracelet, but it must
be a little different from the one she
has worn all winter in just this one
thing. She buys or is given a Neither
sole bracelet. 1t is perfectly plain-it
must be for the new fad. Then she
asks all her friends to have their mon
ograms engraved on her bracelet. If
the girl has many friends and admirers
her bracelet is soon covered with pref
tily engraved monographs, each in a.
different style. AS each individual pays
for the engraving of his or her own
one can easily see that the
girl viii soon possess a bracelet which
quite an outlay at no ex-
pense to herself.
