Check Summer Styles For ‘Cleanability’

3 Now's the time that fore-minded Srowen buy up armsful of summer fashions. These are the crisp, color- * ul classics that make their appearance early in the year for southern Wear but which fashion fans snatch keep for northern summers, The only hitch is that with the tual wearing of these clothes some months off, we are likely to think of their lush colors and being styles and little of their practicality and durability.
