WITH NAVY BLUE Shoes, gloves, cravat, scarf and hat must be considered. With the dark-blue dress a note of variety can be struck by having a yellow, or rea, coloured jacket to alter- nate with the matching navy. Care must be observed, however, in keeping the accessories" As separate affairs. Navy-blue shoes, and gloves could be hand-bag worn with either coat.

Hats are gay, and with the neat navy ensemble all sorts of mixed straws, nets and ribbons can bring in a riot of colour.

Another favourite old-time alliance with navy 13 white." White gloves are a smart choice, and a white cravat or blouse is good. There ore many lovely white hats this season. A tiny coarse straw sallor in white, with

navy net pipings and vell, should be a perfect completion to navy- and-white suit.

For warmer days there are the striped silk suits, cut very short

Skirts of these thin fabric are generally pleated, and fit well over the hips.

NEW SUMMER

SHADES

The neat

black suit which is always considered so suitable for everyday wear during the winter is not so much in evidence hist now, various shades of blue and grey having taken its place.

A light shade called Academy grey is popular 'for suits and gowns, and a deeper tint, "smoke blue" is also to the tore at the moment. With grey, there are certain blue tories which blend well; so does red, and all the pink tints. One of the most attractive alliances of all is that of grey and yellow, provided the latter tone is in the pale primrose or banana, rather than the strong lemon.

The smartest kind of hairdress- ing is that of the Duchess of Kent, who has little centrál parting in front of her hat. The hair is done close to the head to show its outlines, with only a little modification here and there i that outline is less perfect than could be wished. And the "front part of the hair at least, is brush- ed, with a rather soft brush, for a 'long, time. As a rule it takes time to bring back the original lustre of the hair which has been apailt by dyeing, curling, and what not. But brushing has such results that it is likely to become almost as popular as tanning, and in a short time it will again be inflcted on schools who were formerly expected to brush their hair for ten minutes also abolish the more artincial see whether brashing does not
