Not Too Expensive--- Spring Costume Jewelry Features Tricky Design
The difficulty in obtainin geostume jewelry from Central Europe has led the manufacturers turn to native designers with some striking results in spring accessories.
Every conceivable material has been pressed into service and designers have let their imaginations run riot in the matter of necklaces, bracelets, and pins.
Tailored lapels of spring suits cry fruit dangling from rhinestone stems ured in red, white, and blue enamel for that necessary American touch. One practical manufacturer offers a water-boy pin for fresh boutonieres consisting of a hollow silver tube flanked by green enameled leaves. A tardy soul might pin a Dali-esque watch, opening on the side to show the works, to a dark suit.
One of the most novel of the neck-lace and bracelet sets is the one made entirely of old fashioned safety pins of all sizes. Another original necklace is made of gold Roman numerals fastened between two gold chains. A homespun touch is achieved by the necklace made of rope with brightly colored water buckets dangling from it.
Not all the necklaces are so frivolous. Some are as frilly and femin-
for fanciful gadgets such as enameled or a flamboyant metal rooster feath-
ine as a spring bonnet. The new "lace dolles" which are carved from celluloid and hung on plastic chains come in all pastel hues and are as dainty as a lace handkerchief.
A topic for conversation is the self-appointed chaperon belt which says "hands off" by means of two tiny silver bands holding a plaque with the word "off" on it. Another gadget showing the power of the printed word is the set of cuff links for that tailored blouse with the words "yes" and "no" printed on them.
No matter whether you go whimsical, coy, or just plain silly, in the way of gadgets and accessories this spring, just remember that this season is a god-send in the line of amusing jewelry.
Welcome spring in a firemen red wool jersey blouse and navy blue skirt. The blouse is intricately buttoned and worn with navy blue accessories.
