Accessories Accent Spring Costume
Accessories accent milady's spring outfit and this season the correct K.U. girl will choose from a treasury of hats, blouses, gloves, scarves, belts, and costume jewelry.
Millinery fabrics have their own individuality this spring. Straw cloths are woven like shiny, ribbed faille, in shantung weaves and airy meshes. Straw yarn is crocheted in lacy patterns, combined with pastel sequins, angora yarn, and raffia. Printed cottones, calcios, pique, organdy, and velvet are used alone or in combination with straws.
For blouses, too, the fabric tells the new fashion story. All-laces, lace-trimmed, pure silk prints and stripes, pastel sheers, pure linens, polished cottons, sheer nylons and cotton piques give variety to skirts and silhouette suits.
Sleeveless and almost-that-way blouses are also in the picture this year. They have jewel necklines and surprise necklines, which can be worn with suits or with skirts in early spring and to top shorts later in the summer.
a basic dress. Try it tied in a bright bow, or knotted about the neck, one dangling end swept back and caught with a pin at the shoulder.
The poish of really fine leather gloves with a dressmaker look emphasizes the air of elegance in the new shorter fashions. Gloves with cuff and wrist treatments make the most of a pretty bare arm and stress the importance of the shorter sleeve. Longer gloves are kept slim but they are beautifully detailed and embroidered.
This year's style is to wear a scarf sash-style on that basic dress, with the ends dangling as fobs for scatter pins.
Scarves are very much a part of this year's accessory picture. Use a scarf to make neckline changes on
Belts to emphasize the slim lines of this season are wide, contoured, or curved. Sleek black patent leather, soft velvet with self-buckle, and colorful ribbons seem to be most popular.
For tailored spring suits wear a blouse with feminine shirt details. This one, of Celanese rayon crepe by Paletta.
As important as sleeves and collar to a costume is costume jewelry. Tiny jewelled pins will accent the generous turn-back cuffs of suit and coat sleeves.

'Eyes' Have It For Spring, Says Representative
By ANNE SNYDER
The "eyes" have it this spring as far as make-up goes. Beverly Jennings, student representative for Coty cosmetics, said when interviewed about the new spring trends in makeup. The "spring thing" is a wide-eyed look, and there is a variety of makeup to achieve it, she said.
"Eye tint" for evening wear on eyelids is on the market, she said. It comes in blue or green and should be chosen to match the iris of the eye. Green or hazel eyes call for green tint, blue eyes, a blue tint, and brown or black eyes any color to match the ensemble.
Jeffings committed:
"Less rouge will be worn, but some should be used to achieve a natural, fresh look. Cream rouge should be applied on top of the powder base and under the powder. It should harmonize with the shade of linstick worn.
A new "blonde" eyebrow pencil gives that natural look. Miss Jennings said. Old brown or black shades were often too heavy for blonde eyebrows.
"A powder base should definitely be used for a makeup job that will last. A cream or cream cake base is easy to apply with the finger tips," she explained.
Clear, bright red shades of lipstick are featured this spring. Also blue-red and clear red, a coral orange-red shade will be worn with outfits of coral, gold, or apricot, Miss Jennings continued.
Mascara should be applied on the underside of the lashes brushing from the middle of the lash to the tip. Miss Jennings said. Mauve, taupe, or gray eye tint applied sparingly to the outside corner of the eyes gives them depth and makes them look farther apart. A new navy blue shade of marscara for evening wear is very effective with navy or black outfits, she said.
"if you have yellow pigment in
"Eyebrow pencils should be kept sharp and applied with light, feathery strokes," she said. "Eyebrows should be plucked to preserve the natural line. Eyebrow curves should not be exaggerated with eyebrow pencil."
A "well-powdered" face is essential for spring, and powder should flatter the skin, not just match it, she said. Light, pastel shades are particularly good.
your complexion, choose a pink powder, and if your skin is flushed, use a gold tone," she advised.
"Powder should be applied freely and then dusted off with cotton or a clean powder puff."
Blend powder and powder base from the bridge of the nose outward, she said. It is well to minimize the nose. Always apply base and
powder to the neck, behind the ears, and on the ear lobe, she said.
Miss Jennings has been visiting organized women's houses at the University and holding Coty makeup clinics.
