Ways for Serving
Vegetables Are Many
Green lima beans maybe creamed
for variety, or served with crumbled
bits of crisp bacon.
Cream sauce and asparagus with
a few mushroom caps are delicious,
too. T ry a bit of nutmeg for season

Of course, you can combine lima
beans with other vegetables. Try
them with scallions, tomatoes, string
beans or corn.

Mustard sauce goes well on

Cummerbunds Help
Whittle Waistline
For the whittled waist effect
which is so popular, choose cum
merbunds shown wrapped in scarf
effects. If they’re bright and you
have a slender waist, wrap a pair
around the waist and tie in a bow.
You also may have a cummer
bund and then match it with a col
la r and cuff set.
Plastrons, fichus and Jabots are
excellent for cover-up Jobs, creating
a look of newness and fashion. With
so many prints scheduled for the
coming season, you’ll find that a
soft printed rayon plastron com
pletely transforms the front of a
dress, giving it a high collar effect
and new hip emphasis.

Neckwear and Scarfs
Are Handy, Interesting
Neckwear, which is so popular for
adding a new look, has many inter
esting features. Many items have
tuck-ins so that you don’t have to
sew them, or they may have snaps
for adding and subtracting features.
Blousettes come with several differ
ent collars, or a change of Jabots,
matching cuffs and an extra long
tie so that many different effects
can be achieved.
Scarfs are seen in many new tan
talizing colors and exciting prints.
They come in long lengths as well
as squares. Wrap them around the
waist, make bustle backs, side
bows, hip drapery, shoulder flat
tery, neckline variations, front plas
trons, halter blouses, peplums or
anything else.
Silver with its lovely moonlight
whiteness is one of the really dra
matic metals in the world. It is
used at present to set off the beauty
of colored stones, precious or simu

in necklaces, chokers, bracelets,

Shoes for Spring
Completely Different
According to St. Louis stylists, a
virtual revolution for shoe ward
robes is predicted. The “new look”
is traveling down and shoes will be
as different as dresses.
I f you are wondering what you
should wear in the Easter parade,
look over these features when you
choose footwear.
Shoes will be predominantly dain
ty, elegant and feminine. Long,
slender lines, graceful heels, in
tricate but dignified ornamentation
are the important features.
Since the hemline has dropped,
attention naturally is focused foot-
ward. Stylists are sweeping foot
wear up, often around the ankle as
if to meet the dress itself. Shoes
must have the new, long, graceful
effect.
Closed toes and heels are better
than open ones. Choose a simple un
adorned pump if you're in doubt,
and you will be correctly attired.
Toelines no longer are stubby,
they’re rather more slender and
tapering.
I f your ankles are slender, wear
the strap effects, but steer away
from them if you lack the trimness.
If you need to slenderize, match the
shoes with dress and hosiery to
carry out the needed elongation.
