finite ways of combining them to OBJ
tain a pleasing result.
II you have been looking for shoes,
you have probably noticed that there
are very definite types for sports wear,
street and dressy afternoon.
Every kind Of suit and dress seems
to call for a special sort of shoe.
There is the popular mannish suit,
with swagger topcoat that calls for
good, sturdy shoe, with low heel.
Such a shoe comes in copper brown,
Norwegian calf. with a waterproof
sole. 1t has a wide center strap and
twin cross straps above a vamp that
is cleverly scanned and perforated fol
added comfort.
This shoe, which is here sketched
and featured in a local shop, is also
high-lighted in one of the monthly
fashion magazines. With it might be
carried a plain calf handbag with
yellow metal clasp, as shown. Or II
your swagger suit is navy blue OF
dark brown, you might prefer one of
those new chamois bags that are sc
bright and catch the eye the minute
you near the handbag counter. Some
Of these are quilted and come in an
envelope style with a huge yellow
metal-ring handle and others in a
pouch style with a big, soft, covered
cord around the top that hides the
talon fastening. These bags, when
carried with chamois gloves, are very
smart.
EOR the dressy afternoon ensemble
the kid shoe, with higher heels,
Is shown with trimming of perfora-
tions, stitching or combinations of
two feathers or leather and fabric.
Navy seems to head the List, with
stitching in white. in sandal, pump
and oxford styles.
For the fur trimmed afternoon coat
ensemble you might possibly like the
sandal of dark blue candleberry cloth,
combined with dark blue kid and tiny
pipings Of white, which Is No. 2 in
the sketch. The upper part of the
heel and the curved stripping on the
toe are kid and all the lower portions
Of the shoe are fabric. The dainty
little woven strips of blue and white
leather are a most attractive addi-
tion. The handbag especially de-
signed to accompany the shoe repeats
the same theme.
Many dressy afternoon shoes are
of brown kid, stitched in beige, and
the variations of design are legion, as
a window shopping tour of your IA
vorite shops will reveal Black is the
standby Of many a smart woman,
and in fabric combined with patent
it has a new appearance.
No. in the sketch uses these ma
terials, the back of the shoe being
patent and the vamp alternate strips
of patent and gabardine. The hand
bag suggested for this shoe is of the
same black gabardine, with top edge
and handle of patent leather. 1t is
especially nice for the dresSy black
coat, trimmed with ermine, or for
the printed silk frock.

vanity bags to tuck under the arm?

metal trim, is just the thing to &C

side of the triangle and adding q
