From the tip"of your skiâ€"boots to the top of your parka you want a ski outfit that is smart and smooth and yet will take the hardâ€" *est tumbles in its stride. Let‘s start at the tip of said skiâ€"boots and see what our wellâ€"dressed young skiâ€"er‘ will wear, if and when the snow comes. Her sturdy skiâ€"boots will probably be brown, with an extra strap, across the inâ€" lter for added supgort and conâ€" trol.

Also some heavg handâ€" knit socks from Switzerlandâ€"with tiny Iigxm embroidered on the cuffs, that: wouldâ€" be ])erfect. If the day isn‘t too cold our gal might top her slacks with a smartlyâ€"tailored flannel blouse to match her socks and mittens, For an added dash of color she could tie a multiâ€"colored sash about her waist. Chances are her. shining locks will be held in place by fluffy earmuffs, or a bright monk‘s hood to blend with her slacks. Or %eh haps she‘d top her slacks with a warm sweater with reindeer dancâ€" ing across it, or add a chamois jerâ€" kin against the biting wind.

They‘ve found that you can ski just as well and have just as much fun in old togs as in an ultra ski suit, When that old ski fever gets you, you‘ll be on the hills ‘n trails, not worryâ€" ing about your garb, as long as you can ski, ski (oops! crash!) and ski.
