A TRIPLE ALLIANCE.

An exceedingly popular combination of colours, aud ono which-is-so often seen now as to mako it almost, definitely a Parisian :dca, is the wedding of blue, green, aid silver, says a writer from Paris. All Sorts of forms this triple alliance may take, from tartan of the green and blue slindo (I do not know its clan, 1 fear) to silk arid nirion or two tones of velvet, provided ono and all of them include or rely, upon" some scheme of silver not or tissue trirriming. It is highly effective this colouring, arid has the peculiar and decidedly unusual faculty of suiting woriien Of almost Any age. It may be that it is in sorilo sense a continuation of tho crazi for velvet in brown with gold cord or tifsue trimming, which is now, however, a little demode. Whilb on the'subject-of trimmings, a point worth notico is that laco of the finer and more cobwebby varieties is coming much into favour again.' Lace will never go out of tho affections of the Parisienrio entirely, I imagine,- but we have erstwhild rather inclined to the crochet fomi of it, and the heavier and bolder genorally. The wearing of lace bretelles and bands ori our touques is ori6 of Hie very few occasions I can remember when Paris has followed London, but your fashion papers certainly mention the use of it for Madgear before I had seen- it in the saloris or ori the lioulevardes. • ■
