of mixing pieces and moods is another key component the fait mix According to industry leaders retailers are responding to Octobers stock market crash by In on mens clothing that offers value and versatility as well as style Whatever the reason stores are pro viding more and more options for their male customers this fall MFA fashion director observed We know that we cannot forcefeed fashion to men so fall wardrobes concentrate on flexibility longer life spans and mixing items from one area to another In outerwear ease of movement is particularly apparent Last fall men endorsed the notion of longer topcoats by purchasing lengths of up to inch well over the calves This fall de signers have dropped lengths another two to four inches That means fuller coats frequently with swing backs shoulders or wrapped styling Brushed wools and cashmere blends are popular fabrics for more tradi topcoats while nylons and wa ter repellent cottons are frequently shown for new fuller trench styles From sweaters to doublebreasted suits black brown and gray arc front runner colors This dark tral palette lends a subtle sophist ica tlon to the new choices as well as maximum mixability Brown more vicuna than the reddish Reagan brown of seasons past looks rich Gray ranges from the palest shades of putty to rich charcoal Black becomes a pivotal color that is eminently mixable One of the biggest surprises of the all collections was the return of the white shirt Banished for the last few years it now looks refreshingly crisp and elegant Look for new treatments like the increasingly popular spread collar or stripeon stripe monotone fabrics For men who still like color In their shirts the newest choices are in those grays browns and black For off hour dressing most week end Jackets

me Over the years I been more than a little skep tical about the validity of spending a lot of money for a basement area which is usually too cool damp and poorly lit A main floor family room seemed to me much more use and certainly one that I would use a lot more than a rec room Well I changed my mind and I now can see the use that both rooms can play over the different eras of ones amity life To begin with when the kids are small the main floor family room preferably near he kitchen where mom usually is is the room that the small fry will use much more often than a basement room Just try to get toddlers to go downstairs while the rest of the family If on he main level Nice work if you manage to do It However when the kids become teenagers lust try to get them spend a lot of time with the family so do their own space their own privacy and the beginning of their own lives At least if you have a nice area for them to go to perhaps they will spend some part of their free time at home and not on the street corners Hence the purpose of his column is to to identify a family needs for the stage of their family The young couple with the little family need room for the kids to spread out near the family The older kids need some privacy a roam that Is nice enough to their friends in turn up the music and not have the parents looking over their shoulders in This is now the room Mj guess Is that if you have a very presentable room when you are selling will reap the dollars thai you put In to tl and It will become a good selling feature of your home Make sure that you mention to the use you hove had rom that room and it can be a feature noted on your listing Dark damp uninviting rooms will not qualify very high as a feature so do your best to upgrade this room with good lighting carpeting extra heating elements and nice decorating The effort will be well worth it and SUd Employ mentand Immigration Canada Halton Hills job board The Canada Employment Centre is located
