Gold and Silver on Boots.
it is-not unusual nov, r to see silver or gold shoe buttons on the latest French boots. These aro not of course put upon walking boots, but on those for carriage, reception, or house wear, when the boot is of velvet, satin or brocade. Their use is not uncommon. In some of the French shops jeweled shoe buttons have appeared, such as turquoise, amethyst, garnets and rhinestones, set in silver or gold. A novelty is the tips of silver or gold filagree for evening slippers. They aro made so as to fit snugly, and one pair will do for all the slippers one wishes to
wear. These tips are delicately made in scrolls and other pretty designs, are light and very open work, so that the slipper shines-^distinctly through them.O Heels also are to be seen which match the tips. —Vogue.
