SIDE GLANCES By Galbraith Simple Styles Flatter You By ALICIA HART NEA Beauty Editor In buying her summer accessories, the older woman should choose carefully. It's best to avoid any frivolous, girlish-looking shoes, handbags, or even sun glasses that give her summer wardrobe a "cluttered" look.

Linen shell pumps (in a neutral color) are very smart. You'll find they harmonize with all the summer pastels as well as black and navy. And smart, neutral pumps arc more appropriate than the bright-colored, bare sandals you'll see worn for daytime at this time of year. Your selection of a summer handbag is very important, too. The "basket" type of handbag, trimmed with huge flowers, is i for teen-agers, only.

A linen handbag (neutral color, to match your pumps) is your best handbag bet. To protect your eyes from harmful sun rays, and add that final touch to your summer costume, select plain, simply framed sun glasses. Again, let the teenage set wear the handpainted, gaily-decorated sun glasses. With the addition of carefully chosen pumps, handbag and sun glasses, your wardrobe should be in excellent condition. And so will your frame of mind, once you know you look "uncluttered" aud extremely well-dressed.
