ASTDPR is the time of year when you must “watch your step.” Easter footnotes predict an onsliught of ornate footwear. Shoes are of every kind, shape and descrip- tion. it all narrows down to the ques- tion of taste. If you like a plain, conventional shoe—you may find your shoe in the plainer lots being offered. If you like a little ornamentation to offset the simplicity of a plain opera pump, you might finish it off with a simple thinestone buckle. Rhine- stone buckles are quite the rage for evening wear. One particularly fas- cinating and unusual rhinestone buckle recently seen was wing-shaped ~—and not at all unattractive. It you like a more decorated and distinctive pump, you have a range of choice. There are the glove fitting pumps with inserted elastic gores which have proven to be very popular. They are particularly good looking on a long, thin foot. These are very attractive when fashioned of beige suede. How- ever, they also come in kid, white, brown, &c. Patent leather combined with beige suede might be favored by those who like the two-tone effect in pumps. There is also the combination of black brocaded velvet with black brocaded satin. The newest slipper of all—and one which has proven to be very popular plain slipper fquare buckle and high tongue. Lotus- flower tongues, outlined in white, are very unique, Oftentimes the tongucs ere fashioned from ribbon or feather wide —is the with a oig Above—Evening Slipper of Silver Cloth With a Rhinestone Buckle. = Bo even in the choice of tongues te offset the ful slippers, we have a diversit; styles simplicity of the less fanc A black patent leather boot recently geen was latticed across the top with an elastic insert. black grosgrain ribbon held an orna ment and tassel of cut steel.

Black patent leather topped with red leather stripes is distinctly attractive on the higher Russian boots. One pair of Russian boots with a quaint motif on the black patent leather top is pictured on this page. Fut there is also the modified Russian boot, which is quite similar to the galosh, but in- finitely more natty. Slippers tur evening wear run the vamut from plain satin slippers with rhinestone decorative motif to the simplified sandals made of multi-col- ered brocade. Between these we have the brocaded satins, Evening slippers should harmonize with the evening dress, but the day when evening slip- pers and hose must match the gown has passed While patent leather seems to be leading the vogue in the dressier stip- pers-—we still have the plainer leati- ers to fashion the more sensible and durable shoes Sport shoes are unusually attrac- tive this coming Easter season.

New weaves of this soft, supple fabric are con- stantly appearing, one of the latest being tentatrix, which may soon usurp the place of georgette and promises to be a strong rival of the popular romain crepe. It is a crepe weave with a very fine stripe that is almost invisible and is a decidedly pretty fabric. Chiffon still holds first place as the popular fabric for eve- ning wear, especially for the debu- tante. No more anxieties about the blouse slipping out when wearing knickers. The newest models have suspender straps with a wide belt arrangement that keeps the knickers firmly in place and these suspenders not only add to the comfort of the sports girl, but they give a real dressy effect to the costume and a bit of a feminine touch to offset the shirt-blouse and four-in-hand scarf. their neck- The men have been having troubles trying to keep their ties out of the hands of the feminine members of the household ever since the fad started, but now the women's neckwear departments are showing @ At Left—Modified Russian Boots for Street Wear.
