TtitSDA - r,•rreatuArcr 12:195Z First Aid to Clothes Helps Bank Accounts The college girl who finds her bank account anemic after ex penses of the new semester should not give up the idea of being dressed stylishly for the Eastern Parade. By following a few "first aid" -suggestions, a coed can inject• stylish transfusions into her wardrobe without causing Dad to lec ture on how expensive it is to have a daughter of college age. If -her heart is set on a new spring coat she'll want the latest style, which is a short-shorty. This. fashion is • only 16 inches long, and ends squarely at the waist. It shows off the full skirts of spring print dresses. The coed who wants a short shorty should attack her last year's , longer spring coat with scissors. On second thought, may be she'd better have a tailor do the snipping. If she's tired of the old color, she can have it dyed in one of this year's popular shades. A jeweled pin on one lapel will add the finishing touch. Easter Warmth- The miss who prefers a longer coat should cut both entire sleeves from last year's spring coat. Resulting in the ultra-new "surcoat" which achieves the un expected look by completely ig noring sleeves. Pinning a rhine stone clip on one pocket 'will add smartness. Another suggestion for warmth in the Easter Parade requires the cooperation of mother or an older sister or aunt who owns a dikarded out-of-date fur coat. The thrifty college girls can have it made into a snazzy fur cape or fashionable stole to wear over a suit or warm dress. The. stylishly-dressed coed Will dare to be different in what• she wears with her spring coat. She might sport at its neckline a large taffeta bow --in a contrasting color with streamers, and pulled toward - one side of the neckline. If her coat. has a• pocket near the top, she can tuck a filmy chif fon scarf in it. Matching Pins She can, wear the popular long push-up gloves, accented by -wide cuff bracelets worn outside the gloves. Suits respond well to a little first aid. Matching jeweled pins on each lapel or beside each lapel add notes of interest. Or the college girl with a flair for style can attach a large verti cal white bow of starched pique or linen to the top jacket-button. Please, no dangling streamers to spoil the neat look. And the coed will• never go wrong with a striking artificial flower at the top of a high-necked blotkise worn under her suit. • Taffeta Accessories , Another way of spotlighting a suit's neck, interest is with the colorful pouf of a neck scarf. A figured scarf should be used with a monotone suit, and a solid color with a plaid or checked outfit. Good-looking accessories, too, can be obtained with pin-money Take Your Girl to the VALENTINE DAY Candlelight Dinner C - i f e ll i b ' 4 0 , „ .; „......,- 'z • , • 4 16 441110 Thursday, February 14 TEE Ina rokixom MEE By JULIE.IBBOTSON plus a little effort. 'Latest spring accessories feature lots of taffeta, mostly in polka-dots or stripes. The stylish but thrifty coed. can carry a striped or polka-dotted pocketbook,- and wear white gloves trimmed in the same taffe ta. For this set she'll need an old rectangular zipper-purse and last year's white gloves. The only ex pense will be for taffeta to cover the purse, and to make matching cuffs for the gloves. Another set of accessories com bines the white gloves with taf feta' cuffs, and a beret of -match ing taffeta. The college girl need not be an accomplished seam stress to make _the beret for the commercial pattern •should prove easy to lollow. When -in doubt, she •can consult the nearest home ec major. Dr with the taffeta beret, the coed can make a matching ascot to wear instead of the more com mon neck scarf. She can pin the ascot to the side with an attrac tive clip. By making wardrobe plans now, the penny-wise coed will be able to stroll proudly in the Easter Parade, /happy in the knowledge that her bank account is still intact.
