BOOTS OF MANY COLOURS.

London, February 25. To ba assured that one’s bat and dress match harmoniously is not so important this year as to ba certain that boots, gloves, 'and waist-belt are in the same tone of colour. “The latest fashion in boots is to have the uppers made in coloured suede to match the gloves and waistbelt,” a West End bootmaker said to a newspaper representative. “This little fad of fashion will ii her in a widely required reform, h r all aldies who desire to follow this mode must have their boots made for them.

“Ladies now bring me their belts and gloves to copy when they order their spring hoots. The effect is very smart. For instance, black patent leather boots would be fitted witii grey suede uppers, and worn with a tailor-made grey tweed frock with grey gloves and belt, and a deep red hat. Brown boots are fitted with brown or cream suede uppers. “One of our cutsomers recently ordered a most original outfit. She will wear a white serge dress with belt to match, and two scarlet quills in her white hat.

“We are making her a pair of white boots with red suede uppers to match this toilet. “This design, however, is in too startling a colour to be very widely followed, but the more sedate shades of dark green, brown, grey, black, and prune suede will be largely in. veidence. ”
