SOME DRESS DON'TS
Don't wear too small a hat if you have a large face. Don't wear the very nicest sports hat if you are well past your first youth. It will bo too hard for you. Don't wear with grey hair the colours you wore with brown, without reconsidering your choice. Don't have too many clothes. Stick to few and good. Don't hoard; wear your clothes while they are fashionable. ■ Don't imagine that tight sh^oes will make a pretty foot. Don't fancy a well-fitting dress will j disguise ill-fitting underclothing. Don't if you are short and fat, wear a skirt and jumper. A dress on straight lines will suit you better. Don't forget that the secret of good dressing is appropriate dressing. Don't if yon have thin arms or prominent collarbones, show too mnch of them. Don't choose extreme styles if you have to wear them 'too long. Don't be dowdy. Don't wear out shabby afternoon gowns in tho morning. Don't neglect the stitch in time. Don't dress in a hurry. Don't put your things away in a hurry. Don't choose clothing in a hurry. Don't wear anything just because it is smart or because it suits someone else.
