FLOWER FASHIONS.

Too much cannot be said for flowers this season. You'll find they've gone not only to your head, but to your toes, as"well. Have your own, personal Dower show if you would keep step with Dame Fashion. Even if you ha\e no interest in Dame Fashion, wear a flower here and there —garden or cut flowers make ideal adornments, and there is a wide choice in the artificial offerings. For instance: Pin two (not one, but two!) gardenias on your coat or suit one in each lapel . . . Sew little rosebuds on the insteps of your black satin evening pumps ... in tribute to sweetness, and if you are lfi (or a wee bit over), carry a little bouquet of lily of the valley, framed with lace paper —for your next party, when you wear that white net dress. . . . For a vanishing waistline, and to brighten last spring's navy frock, make yourself a narrow, twisted belt of ribbon in two colours, with matching posies plumped in the centre. . . . The effectiveness of shoulder straps of flowers is something you'll do well to consider. . . . And, here's a preview tip: Sew yourself a daisy chain for last summers floppy straw hat; but be sure you let the daisies continue down in streamers off the brim in back.
