Your Trousseau And How To Plan It
(Continued from Page series and his. Keep yours where they belong and encourage your husband to do the same.
Assume responsibility for your husband's appearance as well as your own. Proper care adds many dollars of wear to your clothes. Keep his and your clothes pressed, spot-cleaned, buttons sewed on, shoes shined. Be sure that the clothes your husband will need for a special occasion are ready to.be worn and not out at the cleaner when he starts to put them on.
Get dressed in the morning! Time is saved and it's easier to "get up and at it." You dress for a job at the office, why not for the job of homemaking?
Never, if you can help it, let your husband or anyone else see you with your hair in curlers, you can always cover the curlers with a scarf!
Set some time aside each week for the "hidden" task of your personal grooming, clothes repair, straightening bureau drawers.
Enjoy Gloves � They Are A Part Of Every Wardrobe
drinks. They should always be com* pletely removed when a woman flits down to dinner.
Gloyes are worn when a woman shakes hands either a"a the hostess or guest in the receiving line at a formal reception. It is sultablexto wear bracelets over long glove*, writes the New York Times, but rings should be worn under, never over, any kind of gloves.
Gloves are made in a variety of lengths. Two-button gloves are wrist - length. Pour - button are bracelet-length. Eight-button come to the elbow. The longest gloves, worn with evening gowns, come within an inch or two of the shoulder. Shorter lengths usually are worn with longer sleeves and vice versa.
Very short gloves, which are young looking, are sometimes worn with sleeveless dresses in the summertime. Elbow-length gloves often are worn crushed, not full-length, to fill the space between the hand and a longer sleeve.
Color consultants favor gloves in a shade that is paler or darker than the clothes with which they are to be worn. White gloves are the late-day gloves, except in some warm climates and in some cities in the summer. Black kid gloves start in the morning and go all the way through the evening.
A general rule one fashion adviser advocates is polished leather ploves � kid or glace � with tweeds, mohairs and lusterless fabrics.
Although wildly colored or printed gloves crop up periodically in fashion, authorities on etiquettes agree that they are rarely correct. The arbiters favor classic gloves in subdued shades. They wince when they are confronted with what one of them calls "weird" materials such as silver or gold lame, fancy embroidery, or costumes in which the hat, handbag, shoes and gloves are of a matching color.
Gloves, these arbiters maintain, are part of the background. They should not be a focal point. As a result, a good glove wardrobe for street and evening wear often is organized around neutral colors � beige, grey, black, white, navy and brown.
During her early years as an etiquette writer, the late Emily Post advised women to put their gloves on before they stepped out of their homes, says the New York Times. She later conceded that there were times when gloves were not necessary.
Today, the rules are greatly relaxed, but gloves should be worn when going to a formal luncheon, dinner, reception or dance. They are de rigueur on the streets of large towns and cities. They should be worn to and from worship serv-ices.
Generally, gloves should be removed before a woman smokes, eats, drinks, puts on make-up or handles merchandise in a shop. Long, elbow-length gloves, often worn to formal dinners and dances, are treated differently. They may be left on for dancing or unbuttoned at the wrist and the finger ends tucked into the wrist opening whenever a woman smokes or
Helena Rubinstein Suggests The Relaxing Bath For That Look Of Well-Being
European women for years have made a bath more than a mere cleansing. To them it is a beauty treatment and a treat they wouldn't miss.
And to show how a bath can nurture beauty, Helena Rubinstein presents a few of her own personal pointers.
Before you step into the tub, surround yourself with a fresh towel, washcloth and lingerie. Have the water just a bit warmer than body temperature. While the tub is filling, pour in a few drops of Bath Oil. A clear, dark green in color, this highly concentrated fragrance clings to the body and is long-lasting.
A real bathing beauty knows the importance of a completely relaxing bath. It may be the only time of day when the busy modern woman, can be alone. Madame Rubinstein suggests you plan to spend at least fifteen minutes in the tub, just to soak and refresh: A quick shower cleanses, but a long bath revives you, exhilarates your spirits!
Sit up straight in the tub and start your cleansing movements slowly, but make them precise. The water makes it easy and you'll be improving your posture � and figure! When you emerge from your bath, do so slowly, taking the time to stretch again. A vigorous drying is in order.
