Women's fine leather arch-supporting slippers with leather soles to "wear when working around the house or taking it easy." They had heels and were $6.96 at Coward Shoes in the Empire State State Building, on Greenwich Street in the Village and in Brooklyn on Fulton Street.

Burnett's had the "dress with you in mind." It was checked with white bibs and cuffs for $29.95. Burnett's was open until 8:45 every night at 138 W, 50th St.

If your earrings fell off or pinched your ears, then earring grips from D'Orsay Products at 59 cents were just the thing.

At McCutcheon's, on Fifth at 49th or in White Plains, you could find "shorties of English doeskin-finished lambskin". They were gloves to "punctuate your Easter costume with unmistakable chic" and cost $5. The store also offered a patent leather bag with panier handle for $12.60 or a frilled flock at $59. "Picture you in the Easter parade--your face framed in bewitching lingerie ruffles." They cascaded down a slim, dark bodice in rayon crepe in navy or black frosted with white.

Celebritees handkerchiefs were available at fine stores, but minks in the Trencher tradition were found exclusively at 277 Grand Street and would set you back $5000.
