VHETHER you wear your hair short, or long, you may want to give yourself a different hair-do for parties.
Here are two ways of transforming sim ple everyday hair styles into party coiffures
The Eton crop of the last war was hard. and difficult to wear: in the now short style, the hair is cut to about din. long all over the head, so that eveh n the back you have solt ents, long enough to curl, thus avoid- Ing an ugly, bare neckling.
If you have this style brusited into a man of short curts all over the head! you will need a strong and
cmelent perman- ent wave.
But there are other ways. In the picture below we suggest two ways of adopting a shortish hair do. One 1s perfectly businesslike and suitable

But also, it you restrain the “duff" on top and brush the curls a little more tightly round your fingers it

suggest, in the
group on the right a way of making your hair style look newer and also i auggestion for transforming it.
By the way, do wear a bun net when on service of any kiral-in the garden, in the kitchen. It saves that wispy, dowdy look.
And if you are in the habit of just combing your hair back anyhow into that bun do try cuiting a fringe, and wearing it
HAIRDRESSER RAYMOND can do almost anything with the
new semi-short hair-that is, not more than four inches
long all over, and fairly strongly curled at the ends.
Here is one convertible way: The girl with the telephone has a side parting, and has side-brushed her hair at the back, so that the ends curl above the car. The shori entis on top are just brushed up and back and coiled neatly above the forehend.
For evening, the hair-do is completely transformed by a fresh parting (see how to do it from the small drawing on the right) and the curls on top, instead of being kept flat and restrained, are combed up into quite a "coiffe" on the forehead. The back is very easy. Instead of being brushed sideways, the hair is combed down on to the nape of the neck, and the ends.pushed up into curls.

times, even though last season's frock has to do duty at a. party. Here's how to brighten 1.
First snip off a few inches from the hem. You'll feel younger at once. It it is a swing or gored skirt bind the edge with coloured ribbon.
Nip in the waist a little Lighter to give the suggestion of a spring at the hip line. Top it.with a light.coloured. jacket blouse to match the coloured skirt hem.
These jacket blues can be in velvet or satin stripes, whichever you fancy, Keep them shapely down the alco scams and allow the basque to fit about three inches above the waist. Cherry, red with binck is this season's most suc cessful colour scheme.
☆ ☆
You have a pleated sports skirt? Then shorten that to about two inches below the knee. Have it repleated and nlp it on to a new peteratinni.
A square-necked blouse with an appliqué lace top will bring it into line with the new models which are being ahown in Paris at the present time.
Rather coarse siring coloured lace is preferable, and the short put sleeves can also be made of it.
A Russian velvet blouse, with high awathed neck line and cutting down one side of the front, in crimson, cherry or violet, is another Iden for giving an extra year of life to a tired black evening dress or instep length skirt.
