Manicure A Necessity For Beautiful Hands
Beautiful hands are an important asset. This year, with jewelry as big and as important as it has ever been, good looking hands are needed. To show off your jewelry to its best advantage a maincure is needed.
Most important in giving yourself a manicure is to be your time. To give a good manicure takes time and meticulous handiwork. It can not be rushed.
Do not work on your lap. Work on a table which is well protected.
To remove old polish neatly without smears moisten a cotton ball with oily remover. Place on the nail and leave a minute for the polish to soften. Then working from the base to the tip, whish away the old polish with one stroke.
Extend the life of your manicure by using several coats of polish. It is best to use a base coat, two coats of polish, and a topcoat. The very minimum is two coats. Wipe off a thin line at, the edge of each nail.
File the nails in a curve. Do not file far down at the sides. A free edge of one-sixteenth inch at the corners will result in less breakage. Be sure to hold your file at an exact right angle to the nail. If a greater pressure is placed on the under surface when you are filing, the tip will split more easily.
Soak the cuticle in warm soapy water before working on it. Observing this step will do away with the ragged cuticle. After pressing the softened cuticle gently toward the base, use remover to get rid of uneven scraps.
If any chips occur between manicures, promptly spread on a thin coat of polish. It will dry in about three minutes and will keep your nails presentable right up to your next manicure date.
When choosing a color of nail polish, choose a color which will flatter the color of your hands. Dark polish will make your hands seem paler; white hands take almost any shade well; brilliant
blue-reds are becoming to pink hands; tan hands will look well with all shades except violet-pinks.
One does not need to have their nail polish match their lipstick exactly. You need only to keep it in the same color family, whether it be blue-red or orange-red.

How Good Is Your Fashion Vocabulary?
Each season introduces new words into the fashion world and along with the new words are a few of the past and forgotten ones. The softness and elegance look for $ \textcircled{*} $
The softness and elegance look this fall has introduced these:
Empire: The look of last year is still with us with the only change being that the lines are being softened a little. This year they have raised the waist only about two inches.
Caracoo: This is the latest name for fall jackets. It is close-fitting and comes to two inches above the waist. Or it may be hip-bone length and looser fitting.
Blouson: A different kind of sheath . . . one that is softer and more feminine. This type of sheath is easier on the figure than the stark, straight-up-and-down look of last year. This year the sheath will have the slim look but the top will billow out just above the belt. Tucks or gathers or flat pleats create blousing in dresses. The same look is achieved in separate blouses with elasticized waistbands or drawstrings.
Panels: Big fashion news for the coming season. They combine softness and elegance not only in evening wear but on almost every fashion.
Bulky Knits: Also a big fashion must. Sweaters and knit dress will have a hand-done look. Bulky-knit collars and cuffs trim flat-knit garments and will be used with other fabrics.
Tope hats: Tall bulky hats. Bulk is created by either the shape of the hat or the fabric—feathers, furry felts or fuzzy naps.
Lightweight Tweed and Chiffon: These fabrics will be the key fabrics for this season. Tweeds may be thick
Here's a treat for cocoa drinkers.
Make cocoa, without sugar, and serve with chocolate-mint patties.
One or two in each cup will sweeten the beverage and add a refreshing new flavor.
Nutmeg lends even further charm to the already irresistible banana-cream pie. If you forget to mix it with the pastry, shake some into the filling.
Loden Green and Black: These are the most important colors for the fall-winter seasons. Loden green is a little greener than olive drab. Camel and brown tones take the place of last year's charcoal gray for the neutral colors.
and bulky or on the other hand they may weigh next to nothing. Irregular wool weaves with a linen, burlap or canvas look will be chosen for suits and coats. For the dress-up clothes, chiffon will be blended in soft lines with sheer wool or velvet.

Turn cuttings of leftover pastry into a delicious dessert. Roll cuttings out *thin* and cut into oblongs big enough to wrap around small bananas sprinkled lightly with cinnamon. Brush pastry with milk and bake on a cooky sheet in a very hot oven (450°) about 15 minutes, or until the crust is lightly golden. Serve warm or cold-either plain or with lemon sauce or whipped cream. Or cut into bite-size pieces for a sweet tidbit.

The origin of the pudding-cake may be obscure, but its popularity is certain—especially since the creation of a pudding-cake mix. When you try the new lemon flavor, strew some chopped dates and nuts over it before baking.
Fabric is just as important as the style in the selection of clothes.
Choose Fabrics With Care
From among the miles of different fabrics used in Paris for the 1956-57 clothes five "star fabrics" have surged out ahead for the new continental look.
The first of these is a diagonal striped tweed with an equal amount of black and white. This is being used for sport coats. Although it is difficult to work with, it is most effective for a chic daytime coat.
Supple wood which is woven loosely to look and feel as if it were knitted by hand is another outstanding material. It is being used by Dior in "magnet grey" for one of his sensational "semi-long" street-costumes.
A mat supple wool crepe is the latest for dresses. Black crepe dresses are legion in Paris. But the same fabric also looks new in fire-red, deep violet and toffee-brown.
Paris designers have used an interesting new fabric for evening suits and cocktail dresses. It s "cut velvet" woven in a lace pattern or a silk base.
