Colour has never been more important than this season! new colour schemes are so startling and so well-defined that by adding the right colour note to any last year's outfit you can bring it completely up to date. Here is a bird's eye view of the new BCR- son's colours combinations!

CYCLAMEN, as you see, is still the season's colour.. But don't wear it with blue any more-that dates it. Far newer is cyclamen and green or cyclamen and rose. Be careful mixing the tlats. you have light cyclamen you have dark green and so on
When
With a dark brown suit, wear a blouse and gloves of cyclamen or acid-drop green or bright blue. Beige is ONLY smart in the form of accessories, Belge gloves and a beige fox with a purple or à wine. red sult are extremely smart.
Grey, which is the most completely "out" of all colours, can yet be saved from dowdiness if only you'll be bold enough. Under a grey sult why not wear a blouse in broad atripes of red and yellow? (This red and yellow mixture is very smart.) And with a grey coat you could wear a frock in two bright shades of cyclamen
If you LIKE all-black without a single colour note, it's terribly smart, of course. But a good many of us like a hint of colour-in which case go carefully. A BON-BON PINK or ACID-DROP GREEN blouse with a black sult is good.
Remember that the way in which you mix your colours is absolutely vital. Whatever happens don't be "bitty." Don't intro- duce your second colour not the one that's to be the making of your suit more than TWICE. Never have gloves, blouse, buttons, button- hole. AND belt all in the contrasting colour-that would spoil the whole effect.
With a suit, matching blouse and gloves are no more fa- shionable. Let shoes and hat match the main colour mote or melt into it. And with a coat, you can have dress and buttonhole in con- trast, OR dress and hat.

THE SCARF TURBANS Travel easy headwear. Splash colour boldly on your white: take fine linen squares in colour match- ing your handkerchiefs. Use them like the jersey turbans which have had such a success, to twist into "parsee turbans" to wear on ship- board or on land, stabbed with jewelled pins."

·TRAVEL CONJURING TRICKS
Slace on a cruise you cannot have unlimited packing space, the clever trick is to vary a dress in many ways so that all monotony leaves it. One way is the overdress seen at the right above; to a basic slip is added a variety of overdresses. There is the smocked chiffon to match the underdress as seen here, held to the waist by silver cords, which are repented in a silver flower, just as the rose tone of the smocked portion of overdress matches the rose portion of the bodice.

No dress looks more easily smug than does the afternoon frock and no dress is more difficult to segre- gate between the town sports frock und that devoted to the cocktail movement. Afternoon dresses have to be simple, but they also have to be enriched. They may be made of anything-wool, silk, velvet-but they must all have the same look-a sort of dircreet ap- pearance, as though their wearer had just changed into them for the hour related to times a plain dress can be lent an "afternoon appearance by a change of hat, but on the whole it has to rest upon its own merits and indicate of its own power exactly what it la

Pleating, gathering, honeycomb- ing are all being used in afternoon frocks. especially in the thinner materials, and often in what are really patches, and have not much bearing on the general fulness. Pocket-like patches are made of close-pleating, which sometimes.. though not always, admits of a cascade of fullness down each side of the skirt. Paquin "has closely pleated puffed sleeves, and the pleating is sometimes carried fan- wise on to the shoulders, where it looks like a diminutive bolero. Bometimes pleatings are merely simulated, stitching being used down the skirt, which has a Fizzaz

Another feature is the long tunic, made with a flare, wich will be becoming to the less perfect thirty-sixes. For home purposes--that is, staying at home to lunch instead of going out-- many black dresses of glain are worn, together with soft coloured wool jackets. Palest pink, orchid,
EVENING
LOVELINESS
Evening loveliness is concerned with so much more than a perfect make-up. Personal fragrance is essential, achieved with a deodorant stick and a dusting powder sharply sweet with Eau de Cologne. And a luxuriant rub down with the Cologne after the bath gives a glorious glow to the skin, leaving it cool and tingling-fresh.
The same treatment applies for dancing feet. It may sound some- thing like a bother, but it ensures comfort and coolness.
Hands will, of course, come into the scheme of evening loveliness. Nall-tips are important, but only to the shade of your gown and the colouring of your skin. If you suffer from broken nails, you may find it a happy idea to take the colour right up to the "tip," leaving only a hairline' to prevent crack- ing the enamel. And if your nails are dry, apply a little cuticle oil, Hafter using cuticle remover, and leave for half an hour. It is absorbed very quickly..
Your hair is important if you mean to look your best, and, pro- viding you have had it set, use just a little "curlset" on the hair before going out. This is non-
