Fashion Notes

Fashion Notes.

As a result of having spent as much as possible of our spare time in the sea during these hot summer days, we are becoming nautically minded as far as fashion is concerned, and carry a remembrance of the coolness of the water in the form of tiny anchors of all descriptions into our dress. When visiting the beaches we look with envy at the trim girls in their white slacks and neat white blouses with sailor collars and pockets embroidered with anchors in red or blue, but content ourselves by giving our beach frocks that necessary finishing touch by sewing on fascinating anchor buttons and buckles and having sailor collars to flap in the breeze. Our berets are improved by the addition of tiny anchor ornaments while the old idea of crossed racquets on our tennis frocks has been replaced by an anchor, and how very delightful it looks! This summer could well be remembered as the Summer of the Sign of the Anchor.
