Three smart girls 2

"These three smart girls, having achieved success in the drawing room, turn their attention to sports wear. First choice is a sleeveless pullover to wear over shirt blouses; it gives warmth yet allows freedom of movement. Second choice is a classic jumper which can be worn successfully on both formal and informal occasions. A cotton shirt blouse completes the trio's selection. To be effective it should be in a brilliant shade of boucle yarn."
