WALKING BOOTS OF SUEDE
In Various Colors, Paris Has Taken Them Up as the Latest Thing In Smart Footwear. Suede walking boots in black, taupe or brown tan are the smart thing in Paris. They fasten with medium sized smoke-pearl buttons and they better become the feet than do velvet shoes, which now are rarely seen apart from velvet costume. Next in favor to suede are the street boots having black patent leather vamps, with or without a tip, and black, brown or white cloth tops. After these come the all-gray kid shoes which harmonize with a suit of almost any shade, and consequently arp the stand-by of smartly garbed women possessed of limited incomes. Shoes of finest glace kid in all-black and all-white, are considered smarter than all-black and all-white heavy satin for evenings. If, however, a high topped buttoned or lace shoe makes the foot appeal* thick and clumsy, a long-tongued pump ia worn.
