It used to be that one would strive to match a bag and shoes, or any two or three other accessories, in color and material. The effect was often bad. If one achieved only a near-match, it was painfully obvious that one had failed in one's aim. Today, girls are much more free. Because they don't feel they have to match colors, they can use two shades of one color together, with just enough difference for interest.

Or they can use two colors in their accessories, provided their background colors are plain. The same thing is true of ma terials of which the accessories are made. One used to match faille to faille, velvet to velvet and so on down the line. With today's new freedom, a girl strives for greater interest than texture contrasts. If you're still shopping in the old way bringing a bag and shoe under the light to see if they match perfectly why not enjoy the new freedom of today? With imagination and good taste, you can have liveliness, and flavor in your accessories.

Give special emphasis to words and phrases that call for it. Lift your voice at the end of a sentence whenever the sense allows you to. This makes it easier for people to hear your words and thus feel more like replying to you. If your voice sounds breathy, try maintaining better posture as you speak. Then your voice will have the full strength of your diaphragm muscles behind it.

Speak as you exhale. If you practice by yourself, you'll get over any feeling of self-consciousness. Remember that you don't have to hurry when you talk and it will help you to speak out on the breath. If you hear tightness, tension and flatness in your voice, let tight throat muscles relax.
