tile styles, attractive accessories will expand your wardrobe beautifully. Similarly coordinated outfits will go further and adapt more easily than many separate pieces. The weather, too, gives the Iowa coed her cue. The warm fall season is short, so we usually rush through it by starting out in dark cottons, sweaters, blouses, and wool skirts. This casual look, finished off with loafers or flats, will you take you to class, meetings, daytime coke dates, movies, footgall games, and parties. The exception to this is Homecoming, when coeds dress in low heels and suits or dressy outfits for the football game and go formal to the Homecoming Dance. "Formal" can mean anything from a long gown to a wool cocktail dress, depending on your preference. In the fall you may go picnicking, and here you'll want bermudas and knee socks, slacks or cut-offs. The same sporty outfits will get lots of use as lounging or study clothes. For protection against the elements you'll need a trench coat in the fall, and a heavy coat to keep you warm on your way to classes in the winter. You'll find wool scarves, gloves, and an umbrella useful, and Iowa City winters call for snow boots that can maneuver through the drifts. When the April sun begins to warm the air, coeds head for the sun decks atop the residence halls, so be sure you have your bathing suit. Along Route 66 the least expensive, and most appealing, accessory is your own sincere smile; for best results reapply it often as you travel. Last of all, clothes are not the most important thing-you are! No matter how large or how limited your wardrobe may be, dress with practicality and your own individual taste in mind. And make yourself-the person inside the clothes-such a warm and sincere individual that everything you wear will seem pretty and attractive. {Drawing of dress on hanger with hat box, suitcase and shoe.} 10
