Don’t overdress for Xmas season

THIS CHRISTMAS, the word from the fashion world is don’t overdress.

Instead, choose clothes that in the midst of holiday excess create an oasis of calm. Clothes that caught in a bubbub will stand out, unwilting., uncompromised and right for the occasion.

Pay attention to clothes that provide softness without fluff, to the kinds of colors that remain bold without being uncomfortably electric, to the kind of detail that is nicely confined to well-chosen but- tons, well-placed folds, and nicely balanced proportions.

A crepe, wide-legged trouser suit provides a modern look, or pick a dress with a smart sultry lock.

At Christmas, there are as many moods as parties.

There will be times when you'll need an outfit to tide you through two office parties, a night out with friends, and dinner with the in- laws.

Kids step

CHILDREN ARE very choosy about the footwear they wear.

The desire to be adorned in up- to-the-minute fashionable shoes is as important for youngsters as for adults.

This year, you should choose a Christmas gift for youngsters that will keep them in step with fash- ion.

Roper boots are the newest “hot’? footwear with children to- day. Spanky McFarland, of the Little Rascals television series says, “I wore boots when I was a child on the Hollywood set, and youngsters today are more fond of boots than ever before.”’

MMerry Christmas : Give a moment to remember. Give a gift portrait or gift certificate

Select a dress that isn’t fussy. Perhaps a 1940s style dress with a vintage sense of swish, a strong, yet understated form.

There are dresses that ure grown-up and lacking coy: dresses in which backs drape to near-racy proportions.

Then there are crepe skirts that are just the ticket regardless of oc- casion, and crepe pants wide enough to allow you to sail with ease through crowds.

For overwear, a tailored jacket is the appropriate attire for day or night. It could be a long double- breasted wool crepe blazer that fits as snugly as an olive round a pimento.

Small tighi-sleeved boleros in velvet and in crepe are another op- tion, which could be worn over a long tailored .elvet-trimmed bustier, commanding enough in its flute-fine simplicity to provide the kind of poise to chill the crowd.

into style

Roper-styled boots are the ideal footwear for young feet. The boot has a steel shank in the arch to provide greater support.

The genuine leather protects smaller feet from the cold and wet, and nonslip soles and non-marking rubber heels meet the demands of active wear that children put on a shce.

Featuring a Wellington toe, shoe heel and shallow scalloped upper, the boots are available in a choice of fashion colors.

THis Christmas, children can en- joy the Roper style boot that has been popular with their parents for years.
