 They make new angles and color schemes this year. Bags have new shapes, shoes new colors, scarfs new stripes, and they all are assembled in new ways. They no longer are painstakingly m t c h e d. Instead, two or three may be of one hue, several more of another and all may contrast with your costume. Avoid ing errors with that plan requires both shopping and thought.
 Bags are important. Many are worked in soft feathers with tuck ! ed or quilted effects. Lots of them have handles-some long enough to be worn over the shoulder. Big flap pouches, designs resembling field glass or camera cases, peaked bags, and envelopes are all seen. Harness stitching and cord piping of con- trasting color are noteworthy trims.
 Pigskin, patent leather, calf, pin seal and kid lead the feathers in such colors as carnelian Ca warm wine) red earth (tile red), corona tion red, slate blue, gray, vivid green, brown. black and navy blue. Scarfs are very gay. Some are la series of silken rainbow stripes. l Others are designed of rich cravat
 silk marked with bright narrow stripes and third group is pepper
 ed with polka dots. Paisley silk
 squares and lengths of champagne
 colored organdy tipped with stripes are also shown. Many are long in-
 stead of square.
 I The flowers which make those
 bright little nosegays to wear on both lapels of a suit might have
 come from grandmother's garden.
 Daisies, anemones, arbutus, forget lme -nots, blue bells, cowslips and lbuttercups have stolen the spotlight
 from the bigger gardenias and car nations and make intriguing bou- ltoinnieres.

 pairs to wear on lapels. Three strand coral rope necklaces are
