Fashions Promise
Bright Wardrobes
ADRIENNE WAGGONER.
"Buy only what is needed, and
wear it as long as possible," is the
fashion slogan for American coeds
this year. When new apparel is a
necessity, however, there are
many bright fashions on the
horizon.
Date dresses are always an im
portant item in any college girl's
wordrobe. Practical and smart is
the black taffeta skirt which can
be worn with a variety of blouses.
A white peasant-style blouse with
gathered sleeves and low draw
string neck makes the outfit al
luring for evening. Then for
luncheons or teas, a demure long
siee ed white rayon blouse, with
the round neck and cuffs edged in
eyelet batiste, is appropriate, and
for a colorful change, a window
pane checked blouse in red and
white with the skirt.
In the same line, a black benga
line modified dirndl, with low cir
cular neck, short sleeves, and but
tons of turquoise and gold, will
make that big Saturday night date
a sure hit.
No Stamp Burns.
If that No. 1 airplane stamp is
burning a proverbial hole in any
one's pocket, there is no better
way to spend it than on a pair of
ankle strap shoes. Either the low
or high heels are very becoming,
that decision resting mainly on
whether the man of the hour is
tall or short. Black suede is smart
now, and later in the season pat
ent leather will take its place.
Also good are shoes in brown or
colored lizard. Still very much in
vogue are d'Orsay pumps, which
go equally well with suits or
dresses.
House-Time Wear.
For wear around the house, late
breakfast, midnight parties, or
what have you, there is an excit
ing array to be had. Black velve
teen lounging pajamas would make
any girl feel super-deluxe. As for
robes, the quilted type is warm as
well as becoming, and the flower
sprayed satin ones are especially
charming. Bright-colored cordu
roys are having their inning too.
Something a bit different is the
breakfast coat of white cotton
blanketing, bound in satin w.th a
satin sash.
Sweaters always hold the lime-

light for campus wear. There is a
great choice of varieties. For the
girl sport-enthusiast a ski sweater
is the thing. Since they have be
come so popular, many designs are
on the market. For the feminine
plus type a confetti sweater with
a plain matching skirt is ideal.
These somber war days Should be
brightened and a sweater will do
the trick.
