HIGH JEWELS HIGH HAIR

The tall, dressed hair-do and the dog collar of jewels worn high on the throat are perfect partners for the new, long, lim-skirted evening dresses. A swan-like neck is, naturally, an advantage, but the high rising shape of the hair-built up over a feather- weight nylon pad -lengthens the look for the less fortunate.

HAIRSTYLE BY RIOKI PICTURE BY JOHN ADRIKAN

London.

THE trouble about never having had it so good is that most of it is so bad for us. Those splendid new cars look like bringing about early atrophy of the legs. The flood of delicacies from all corners of the world-(have you tried chocolate-coated ants or tinned kangaroo tail?)-plays merry hell with our waistlines.

And labour-saving gadgets leave us with all the time in the world to sit Around worrying about losing our looks..our youth.....our minds.....or some- thing.
