Winter “Undies”
Winter “Undies”
When the days become shorter, the sunshine “luke-warm,” and the winds biting, we seek the comfort of blazing fires, hot-water bottles, cosy rooms. We spend a great deal of thought, and often money, upon warm coats, woollen stockings and jumpers, thick gloves and frocks—and quite wisely too! Some of our most attractive clothes are our winter “rigs;” so utterly different from the frills and drifting draperies of summer and spring, the soft colours and flower effects. Nothing can be more “chic” and smart than a well planned winter outfit—warm, colourful and protective. Just as in the hot clear days of summer, we want to look cool, fresh—part of the season—so when the days are grey and icy we must give the appearance of warmth and brightness.
