of fastening her footwear. an Ingenious de-
vice for carrying her fan. and. most char

a lining Of striking design showing through
: some thin material. such as a dark brown
wolfe lined with a brilliant red plaid, or a
blue crepe de chine covering a black and
white check. With her dantily Powered
organdie she wears broad ribbon sash that
matches the design In the gown perfectly
or is a wonderful imitation of fine lace.
This she ties in a stiff, upright bow at the
left side of the back.
When she dons her low-cut evening
frocks she encircles her neck with a band
of black velvet ribbon, fastened at the side
of the couture and inset with one or more
rhinestones, or holding some old ashioned
trinket from her grandmothers jewel box.
