Page 6 THE FULL MOON December 19, 1952 Fashion Flashes Christmas is coming, Saint Nick will be here. Here’s hoping A.H.S. stock ings, Are filled with good cheer. Yep, Christmas sho’ is on the way! Have you all done your Christmas shopping? Well, this lir gal has, thank heavens, and found some darling gifts, too. If you’re wondering what to give your best girl, boys, here’s a tip: Give her a cashmere sweat er! She’ll love you for it! Speak ing of cashmere sweaters, what about Martha Harris’ navy blue one? Also Miss Bankett, Sally Ausband, Carolyn Miller, and Judy Whitley have their share of them. Mona Crotts has a beautiful white mink sweater that was a birthday gift. The sweater buttons down the front with pearl buttons. The neck line really is the most outstand ing feature of the sweater with its turtle neck collar. Ladies, have you seen those petticoats that are in Nelle’s Shop? If you haven’t, you’ve sho’ missed a lot. They are half petticoats with lots and lots of ruffles on the bottom that are hemmed with strips of satin ribbon. They’re precious! One of these “stand out” petticoats really look swell under your new formal for the Christmas dances this year. Many of the girls around here have decided they like their nylon blouses and taffeta skirts just as well as eve ning dresses. By the way, those petticoats would look great un der a taffeta skirt. Girls aren’t the only ones go ing out for flannel this year. J. C. Boone and Robert Shaver have grey flannel suits that look real nice. Plaid, skirts, and the color red are gonna’ be favorites for this Christmas gals, so if you haven’t got something of either color, get some! Betty Gantt’s got a heavenly plaid skirt. She told me her mother made it. You just can’t have an excuse, peo ple! If you don’t buy one, you can make it! Have you noticed Marie Clayton’s, Patsy Page’s, and Julie Ussery’s? Something else that’s really going to be popular from now on is little neck scarves worn at the waist. Thanks to Marga ret Brunson. I saw her the oth er night with a rust color one under the belt of her skirt. Try it, girls! It looks so cute! Speak ing of scarves — Have you no ticed Charlotte Pope’s gold one? Take my word, gals, they look darling! By the way, that’s another nice gift for Christmas, a neck scarf. Santa Claus Please Note: Teachers Found Here Christmas Teachers of A.
