SEEN IN THE SHOPS

FLOWER GIRDLES A garland of flowers to encircle your new spring frock or hat, made of suede petals in lovely combinations of colour and design, and repeated on your shopping bag, are to be found by visiting or writing to Miss Norrish, Crown Buildings, Auckland. NEW MILLINERY It is whispered that since Miss Dixon’s return to retail trade, her display of models at Victoria Street is more fascinating than ever. One finds it difficult to decide when it comes to a choice between many tiny gleaming shells, cunningly used as the very newest of trimmings, and lovely clusters of fruit and flowers. CRETONNE SUNSHADES There is a fascination about a floral sunshade, tilted behind a youthful face, quite apart from its use (which is indisputable) ; and Mr. J. R. Rendell has selected and sent from overseas many pretty designs for beach and garden use, will appeal to the woman who loves the sun. DAINTY LACES Nothing is lovelier for your new lingerie, or baby’s frocks and pettis.. than the daintiest of laces in fine hand-made torchon, and Miss Amie More, of Remuera, specialises in, and is noted for. these exquisite trimmings, in every variety of design. THEATRE FANS Yes! It’s a pity to miss such a good thing, but the warm evenings make one think twice about attending even the best of plays during the —unless—brilliant second thoughtone secures one of those dainty featherweight La Brise fans that Rendells are offering just now. CHILDREN’S SHOES I’m just taking Bobby in to buy him new shoes. What brand do I get? Why I never think of letting him . wear any . but “Kit-kat”— wouldn't feel happy that his little feet were properly supported do believe that comfort in footwear is absolutely essential to health, and you comfort and style in “Kitkat’,’ shoes and boots.

HAIR TOILETTES Oh, Molly! how perfectly lovely your hair is looking! It’s just like gold in the sunshine — have you been doing to it? It’s not a secret, Dot; I’ve simply had it treated by Miss Borgolte, City Chambers, Auckland. She seemed to know exactly what to do to bring back all the life, and colour it lost after my illness. I just wouldn’t think of going anywhere else now. FEATHER WRAPS How do you like my new feather wrap? Yes, a present from Dick for my birthday ; he bought it at Mrs. Crombie’s, City Chambers, Auckland. You know she gets the feathers from the ostrich farm, dyes and curls them herself, and isn’t the result perfect? She would make that lovely feather you had last year look just like new. NOVELTY WOOD BELTS Even the forest trees contribute to Dame Fashion, and offer their sweet scented chips to the decorator, to be dressed and shaped, and strung in many ways of fancy, with one object in view—that of encircling your new summer frock.- —From Rendells Ltd. DAINTY CHINA You may have cups to match every flower of spring if you will pay a visit to Rimmer’s, Queen Street, Auckland, and see their Hammersley china. Exquisitely tinted single cups, and sets in delicate green, yellow, lilac, pink and many other shades, daintily fluted and bordered by dull burnished gold. TENNIS There is nothing more exhilarating than a fast game of tennis in the freshness of the early morning or the cool of an Auckland evening—and you enjoy it to the very top when you are using one of Wiseman’s famous English racquets—there are none to equal them.
