Fashion Notes.

Bay leaves, laurel and oak with golden
acorn are used for trimming fur toques,
especially chinchiila
The latest tint in pink is called cameo
and velvet rosette of this soft shade is
exceedingly effective on a dark velvet or
fur toque.
An extreme novelty in boas represents
a combination of sable and white ostrich
feathers. Black ostrich is utilized in a
similar manner with sable.
Mousseline brilliante is a slightly thick
er type of chiffon with glistening sur
face, and particularly effective for
ruches, frils and trimmings.
At the ribbon counters will be found
some useful little trimmings of black and
white combined, which are the prettiest
of decorations for home dresses.
Short skirts of corduroy or velvet N
some neutral tint, lined with a bright
colored silk, of which the blouse is made,
are the correct thing for skating dresses.
