ECONOMY WITH ELEGANCE,
The most economical way of replenishing the wardrobe is to make a choice of a certain colour far the season and invest in a complete toilette all to match. Additional hats, shoss, gloveB, jumpera, etc., are selected to tona with the principal shade and not bought haphazard because they are a bargain, or rather effective.
Having purchased a fascinat ing bat in grey and blue which caught Ler oye on shopping expedition, a woman is not con fronted, when she designs to wear it, with the annoying realisation that the particular blue does not "go" with either of her smatter frocks, and that the grey is too pale.
That a certain jamper can only be worn with one particular skirt, pretty frock with a special pair of shoes and stockings, or s brilliant scarf with only a dark costume, are tiresome little accidents in connection with limited wardrobea which could so easily be avoided with thought and careful planning before things Bre bought.
The woman with restricted pin money is seldom able to indulge her desires for hat, shoes, stock- ings, etc., complete with each of het frocks, but by making a particular colour her own, and having most of her clothes to match, she may easily create the

Monograms brooch, these are not artistic, but saa single ornamental buckle, or the right type of frock, the cameoing brooch becomes quite another itbing. Or, again, made into a batpin, the cameo may be all that is deeded for certain hats.

Sometimes it is possible to separate the various parts of a beavy necklace, and mount a few of the stones or ornaments on to a platinum chain, thus making s very affective evening ornament,
Paste buckles are always useful Small ones mounted on a narrow strip of velvet ribbon are charm. ing as "bracelets," while large joass give a flaish to a gown if put in the right place. Paste, by the way, should not be worn in the morning, as it is out of place.
Where it is absolutely impos- sible to do anything with a piece of old jewellery, it can often be used as a mount for a card osse or cigarette holder, or some other bag necessity, or even a novel fan mount!

Very wide sleeves of trans- parent materials, gathered into a close cuff at the wrist are featured on many of the new frocks. They have a dignity as well as beauty, and are very flattering to arms that find the sleeveless frock try ing.
DOW are frequently noticed in contrasting colours and are grow- larger and more elaborate.
EVENING AND DAY COATS.
Afternoon coats and capes are made of satin, velvet, cloth and fur, lined with soft-shaded crepe de Chine and crepe marocain materials to match the afternoon frock Wom underneath.
Reversible fur coats are seea quite a great desi also. The fur side is generally in some short- baired fur, such as ermine, seal or squirrel, and the cloth side in volaura de Jaine, velvet or heavy clotb.
Like the modern even. ing gown, the modern evening wrap is made of the most costly and dazzl ing materials. Brocaded steel cloth is more favour- ed perhaps than any other, and after this, rich velvets. The linings of these wraps are equally gorgeous, most of them being in a vivid shade that harmonises with the cost, at the same time throwing into relief the particular colour of the gown when the cost is opened. Like everything else this season, coats and wraps are trimmed with bands or motifs of fur, The new line is inclined to blouse rather much at the top; this is caught in at the waist either with or without a visible band. The skirt part is either tight and clinging into the knees, or else it is gored and made to flare out.

THE WIG HEADDRESSES.
Wigs of gold and silver threads are being intro- duced for evening waar, 思想 well
those of Bloss silk, and are most striking. These wigs are really quite practical for the opera or the stalls of the theatre if one does not want the troubla of doing one's hair with special care, and are also partic- ularly useful for the wo man who is allowing her hitherto bobbed hair to grow long and is ex- periencing the
csual difficulty in dressing it be coming while in the shortened stage.
Cut with a square fringe and bobbed like the bair of mediseval page, a plait takes the place of a part- ing down the centre, while a narrow ribbon bandean keeps the whole in place.
The woman with well- marked dark eyebrows and brillisat oyes will find the
contrast of the gold or
silver wig as effective as the always beautifying poudre.
SHORT COATS,
The new short coals are so well liked that they are even worn to the theatre as semi-dress,
