Neat and Trim Footwear Aid In Appearance

By ALICIA HART ‘

Regardless of her makeup and the way she wears the rest of her clothes, the woman whose shoes and stockings aren’t neat and trim just isn’t perfectly groomed. Crooked seams, runover heels, 'unbrushed suede or unpolished kidskin will spoil the appearance of any otherwise smart costume. If ‘you are diligent in your search, it’s possible to find sheer stockings that will wear and wear and wear. That is, if you ask for the right size in the first place. And, of course, several of the hosiery manufacturers put out long, medium: and short lengths in each shade. By all means ask for a special length. If your stockings are too shori, your garters will stretch and pull and weaken the threads. If they're too long, they’ll wrinkle easily. Naturally, it’s a mistake to wear ultra sheer, one or two-thread stockngs to the office or’ on a hike through the fields, or on a strenuous shopping tour. Such fragile hose are for dancing and dress-up. Buy three-thread for ordinary wear, and four-thread for golf, the country, riding and the like. Wash stockings Immediately after each wearing. Don’t wait until the next morning. If you want the stockings to wear well, wash them before going to bed, Néw ones ought to be rinsed in lukewarm water and allowed to dry thoroughly before being worn even once. Keeping toenails short and smooth and backs of heels free from callouses will add days to the life of .your stockings. Putting them on correctly—that is, rolling them down, smoothing them over feet, then rolling instead of pulling them upward —is a help, too.
