THE Parts beauty parlours are overhauling their colour tones in powder and make-up. The yellows and sun- tans are becoming more and more subdued in order to achieve the delicate Dresden china complexion, which goes best with the new pastel colours. Iapsticks and rouge are preferably clear and light.

COLOUR
O more grey hairs trying to match up your wardrobe if we follow the latest fashion decrees from Paris. It 18 agreed that spring will be a season of contrasts. Not only different colours, but contrasting materials, are going to the making of a new spring outfit.
A pastel coloured tweed suit has a velveteen front and back to the coat. Sometimes a fur blouse made from soft polts is introduced to give warmth to a costumo really intended for later on in the year.
Surprising as it may seem, these blouses are not nearly so bulky as you would bellevé, for only closely ahorn furs are employed. Jackets are cut square and loose-fitting so that they do not cling to the figure.
Another important point is that "Anything Goer" in coat lines. They vary from the briefest of zouave fackota and boleros to three- quarter length styles. Our artist has sketched you three examples of smart contrast fashions seen in Paris.
On the left is featured a black fine wool frock, worn with a plaid jacket zipped at waist that is originally trimmed with large patch pockets of summer ermine.
In the centre is the high corselet dress which you have already heard about. This is carried out in velvet with a Paisley-patterned velvet top. and the bolero of nutria is mounted on strips of the Paisley velvet.
Designers are uncertain as to where to put the waist, and this promises to be an open question during the coming season.
There is a general tendency towards lowering it, and it takes on many forms of expression. The most general ta thown on the third sketch on the right. A snappy bolero, that could pass as large revers, has an elongated jumper bodice beneath in a printed crepe, cleverly swathed to give a sash- ike finish. Beneath the three-quarter length sleeves of the
Jacket peep long tight cuffs of the fancy material.

At this time of the year new shaped shoes are ex- pected. And they will arrive. £ is certain, in time for the brighter weather. Navy and black and London ion will predominate is colour. Suède, glacé and cabardine are the favourite medium.
For walking, one will see more of the rounded to?. with high practical leather heel and abroad instep strap. Oh, so comfort- able for hard street pavement walking! The lighter, more dressy-shoes will have a swathed effect, as if the kid or the suedo were folded bandage-like over the foot.

It sounds a little duli, but the effect is charming and very slimming. Ameri- cans and they certainly know a good- shaped shoe when they see one-are already making the swathed foot a popular fashion.
