readily lend themselves to embroidered

decorated with silver. gilt or rhinestone
buckles. At present the smartest looking
types are rather low cut and closed just

So long as silver and gold trimmings
continue to be used on evening gowns,
just SO long will slippers of silver and

Because of the vogue of tan shades in

shades of tan in pumps and shoes are to
be extensively worn during the ensuing
summer, but, like the high-topped boots
which many women wear throughout the
year, will be modelled on the most con-
sentative lines and be distinguished more
for elegance of material and cut rather
than for novelty effects.
