One of the new kind has flexible links of gold wire,, with the vanity bo? on top in the. shape of an oval medallion with* a handsome monogram.Or she can wear it around her neck as a sautoir. Fascinating vanity pendants are shown of all styles and prices, from tiny ones of French Jewelry to diamond studded boxes no I bigger than a child’s locket. Among Ithe most popular of the vanity cases jfor the neck are those of colored Rus|sian enamel on a linked' ghain to jihatch. Again, one may carry a Vanity box ion the end of the parasol, or as the |head of a big hatpin, disguised as a charm for her chatelaine, or everf set |in one of the big buttons that ornaiment her corsage draperies.
