The Blonde Should Wear

The blonde can wear pastels successfully, blue being a good choice always. Green in clear tones is attractive, too. In the neutral shades, however, she should decide on string-beige rather than grey.

Some of the new colour combinations which should suit her are turquoise with neutral brown and pink or navy with light blue and red.

The titian-haired must be more wary of colours than either the blonde or brunette, but she can obtain some very striking effects. Neutral grey with dark green accents is lovely on the red-haired, so is soft olive with yellow-beige. With brown she can wear tawny coral and yellow or light brown with white.

Hooks And Eyes

To prevent hooks and eyes on your clothes from becoming rusty when laundered, before using them boil them in strong soda water. They will not rust when washed later.
