Walking through Oxford-street's most aristocratic store, with the intention of ordering a pound of potpourri, for which they are fam- ed, my attention was so distracted by a display of the newest hand- bags that I forgot all about the. pot-pourri.
The bag sketched shows clearly that women take an interest in football. This particular football bag is black, with sections of suede and calf, lined with more.
Another new shape looks like a square, flat, black suede muff, and can be worn over the arm, muff- style. There are two slita piped with black leather, and the gen- erous inside portion is lined with black satin piped with gold kid. You can also get this muff bag in black with the slits piped with em- erald or other bright colours.
The best selection of evening bags I have seen in many a long day is to be seen here. The black satin bag sketched is em- chanting, with its wide rolled- over gold frame studded with tiny pearls. The bag is lined with satin, and is to be had only in black.

A little while later I was in Re- gent-street, so I stopped at a very famous shop there, where I look- ed at the newest belts and scarves. The belt sketched is in light pig- skin stitched with black.
