There is a variation of the ery: stal necklace which was so soon and 30 sadly killed by too much popalarity about a year ago; but the new Jone charms in quite a different wa; and as it is not so easy to wear as Fast longer. beads are round and slightly" cut. Two or} three strands of these go round the back of the neck, and at about the place where there ought not to be any "salt cellars" there is a break, of squarish crystal and onyx beads! which divides the necklace into two halves. The part which hangs down front is made of larger beads and note strands.
Variations of these necklaces are! made in plain glass beads of rich colouring. There is a deep red one which would be delightful with a red chiffon frock; a dark yet bright green one; a blue that is almost sapphire, and is obviously meant to ce company the bright navy which so many people are wearing; and an amusing twisted rope in red and black and silver.
It is amusing, teresting, and useful to experiment with necklaces, chokers, and ropes of different sizes, colours, and lengths.
The same necklace worn by two ferent people who have chosen the same frock will produce two!
ly different effects. A rather isrge choker for instance will emphasize any adipose tissue about [the checks and chin in a most unpromising manner. But when it is worn round a neck that is really too thin it makes the neck look happier, the "salt cellars" less obvious, and the face rounder.
