We had been warned that LAD
DIE NORTHRIDGE'S collection
this season was particularly out
standing. It is. From straw hats
sprayed with a pearlized solution,

DER" we found the collection
delightful. His favorite color is
nn1mosa yellow. It blends beauti-

oil other spring shades. Not con-

also has some wells so fixed that
they are anchored to earrings.
These are wishes that came true

tracing trimmings. Some wells on
hats are designed so that woman
need not worry about smoking
with them. There are a few re-
fined derby crowns, lots of closely
woven straws, and much of the

she launched some time ago. A
quick breakdown reveals that

times has the "off-shoot" going to
