that slips on the strap and fits
over the button, completely hiding
It and giving tho appearance Of
q large jeweled button. One large
yellow brilliant set with rhine
stones might be worn very eff.
fectively on q black satin slipper
for formal wear. while q pearl
one set with brilliants would look
particularly well on a silver even.
pump could be made very chic
by the addition Of one Of these
whims Of fashion.
A 8 the Easter season ap-
proaches feminine feet wander
shopward and uppermost in every
feminine mind il the spring ward
robe. And when winter furs are
packed away with the mothballs
the natural sequence IL the choice
Of . new spring wrap. The cry
for capes this year sounds
through every hour Of the day
tho sport cape. the dressy cape
and the evening cape and tho
oapes for afternoon wear seen in
the shops are particularly lovely
both for matron and maid.
Gathered about tho neck they
hang in straight lines and either
boast q fur collar or one ending
in q scarf that may be )auntily
thrown over ones shoulder. The
fur. by tho way. Ia not used to
excess but an outstanding caracul
or baby lamb collar IL noticeable
on many Of the most anuring
capes seen in the shops.
Tho popular materials used are
velette and Canton crepe and the
coiors In demand are black. navy
and tans. Usually the lining of
the cape effects q contrast.
At the Louvre one lovely cape
Of tan velette was gathered into
an upstanding collar Of tan caro-
cul. A deep border of hbbozene
fringe hung about the bottom of
the cape and II was extremely
smart. Fringe has by no means
ended its career. in fact, 1t appears
here and there in the mode on
many an attractive costume.
IN millinery ~ In gowns there il
An unlimited variety of hats.
"A bird On the hat IL worth two
in the nest" and this season they
return to favor as trimming for
hats. not the stuffed birds used on
the cheape~ux Of a decade ago,
but little Youngsters fashioned by
the hand Of the milliners from
feathers nno fluff" The most
effective. think. arc tho proven
bal little :cre-birds. side-by-side on
the crown and brim Of 4 pert
mushroom shape.
The black and white vogue took
New Yor< BY storm, relinquished
its popularity and came to Wash
ington to ie.gn for spring. It IL
always popular but will be more
30 when spring costumes and
chapeaux make their appearance
on Washiug.on thoroughfares. On
one striking hat at O'Connell's
Millinery establishment black shiny
hair cloth covers the crown and
immense dropping brim. White
crepe und.rfaces 1t and the trim
ming 10 quite unique. Huge white
flowers ara made Of wool with
centers % white enamel sticks
tipped VITA Jet beads and these
are placed On the front of the hat
over leaves embroidered in tho
white wool. Tho extremely large
garden shape will be very popular
this spring.
On the color spectrum Of spring
tho Brown family" and all its
relations arc the prime favorites.
From browns and tans. to Gamma.
russell and then TO the lovely
mimosa shades runs tho brush of
Fashion.
Apricot and shades of orange are
popular, too. and flannel Is coming
into vogue in bright shades for
spring. At M. Pasternak's Con-
necticut avenue shop ono bright
little flannel costume features n
loose surplus coat Of apricot flan-
mel striped with blue. It Ia worn
over . one-piece dress in the plain
color with q hem Of the striped
material.
When the spring weather sum-
mons people out-ofdoors, bright
costumes will minGie at the shore,
