GOVT REJECTS CRITICISM AGAINST
AGNIPATH, ISSUES CLARIFICATION
Central govt has increased age limit for recruitment this year, youth up to 23
years of age will be able to apply and also issued a clarification, asserting that not
only new model will bring in new capabilities to armed forces but will also open
up avenues for youth in pvt sector. Below are MYTHS & FACTS sheet issued
FUTURE OF AGNIVEERS INSECURE
l Those wishing to be entrepreneurs will
get a financial package and a bank loan
l Those wishing to study further will be
given certificates equivalent to class 12
l Those wishing to obtain jobs will be
given priority in CAPFs and State Police
OPPORTUNITIES FOR YOUTH WILL
DECREASE AS A RESULT OF AGNIPATH
l Opportunities for the youth to serve in
the armed forces will increase. Soon,
recruitment of Agniveers will be tripled
REGIMENTAL BONDING WILL BE AFFECTED
l No change is being made to the Regi-
mental system. It will be further accentu-
ated as best Agniveers will be selected
THIS WILL HARM THE EFFECTIVENESS
OF THE ARMED FORCES
l Such short-term enlistment systems
exist in most countries and hence are
already tested out and considered best
practice for a youthful and agile army
l Agniveers to be recruited in the 1st year
would only make up 3% of armed forces
l Performance of Agniveers will be tested
before re-induction into army after 4 yrs
23-YEAR-OLDS ARE IMMATURE
AND UNRELIABLE FOR THE ARMY
l At no point in time will there be more
youngsters than experienced people. The
present scheme will only bring about the
right mix of 50%-50% youngsters and
experienced supervisory ranks
AGNIVEERS WILL BE A DANGER
TO SOCIETY & JOIN TERRORISTS
l This is an insult to the ethos and values
of the Indian armed forces
NO CONSULTATION WITH FORMER
ARMED FORCES OFFICERS
l Proposal has been framed by the
Department of Military Officers
l Many former officers have recognized
the advantages of the scheme and
welcomed it
AGNIPATH SCHEME
IS VERY POORLY
CONCEIVED: CONG
Congress said on
Thursday that Agnipath
scheme to recruit soldiers
into 3 defence forces, is
“controversial, carries
multiple risks, subverts the
long-standing traditions”
and demanded that it
should be held in abey-
ance. Senior Congress
leader P Chidambaram
said the announcements
by MHA & MoE on post-
discharge opportunities
of Agniveers appear to be
after-thoughts and show
that scheme is “poorly
conceived and hastily
drawn up”. He urged govt
to hold wide consultations
and address issues of qual-
ity, efficiency & economy.

Jhalrapatan city is very
poor. People enjoy visit-

TOP TWEETS
FOREX CRISIS IN
PAKISTAN STRIKES
AT THE COMMON
MAN’S DAILY CHAI
akistan has made a
uniquepropositionto
its people: Cut down
on the daily cuppa to
save foreign ex-
change. Pakistanis are reported
to have consumed tea worth Rs
83.88 billion in 2021-22. That
caused a huge drain on the coun-
try’s foreign exchange as tea im-
port in 2020-21 was worth Rs 70.82
billion. Although Pakistan is
likely to be removed from the Fi-
nancial Action Task Force “grey
list”, the directive on tea con-
sumption gives an idea how crit-
icaltheeconomicsituationinthe
neighbouring country is. Thank
God, Federal Planning Minister
Ahsan Iqbal did not suggest don-
key milk as an alternative.
With its foreign exchange re-
serve below USD 10 billion Paki-
stan has forex to pay for two
months of imports. It has sharp-
ly increased fuel and electricity
prices to face the crisis. With its
trade deficit expected to widen
to USD 45 billion by June-end
these measures may not be
enough. Looks like Pakistan is
headed the Sri Lanka way
.
P
ith the overall un-
employment rate
amongyouthaged
15-29 years has
been hovering
around 20 percent in urban
areas, Prime Minister Naren-
dra Modi has decided to step
in to set things right. Espe-
cially when the economy is
struggling to keep the growth
rate high amid global ten-
sions, Modi has ordered for
recruitment of 10 lakh youth
in the next 1.5 years, or by
2024 when the next Lok Sab-
ha elections are due.
Coming on a day the gov-
ernment unveiled its trans-
formative policy to recruit
Agniveers,troops,inthethree
wings of the armed forces the
focus has decidedly shifted to
youth unemployment. An
army of jobless young men
and women, who are expected
to play an important role dur-
ing elections, can’t be allowed
to remain frustrated.
The government’s an-
nouncement did not give any
details of unemployment
numbers. Those figures were
provided by BJP MP Varun
Gandhi. “There are 60 lakh
‘sanctioned posts’ vacant in
the country if ‘government
figures’ are to be believed,”
he said in a tweet. Varun Gan-
dhi claimed that unemploy-
ment “is at its highest level in
3 decades”. If these numbers
are correct then 10 lakh re-
cruitments will be woefully
short of the real numbers.
The BJP has not reacted to
Varun Gandhi’s claim. How-
ever, according to the 2018-19
report on pay and allowances
of Central government em-
ployees there were 31.43 lakh
civilianemployeesonMarch1,
2019.Thiswasagainstthesanc-
tioned strength of 40.66 lakh.
These vacancies are low level
and in different government
departments. Filling up these
vacancieswillentailadifferent
set of problems which the gov-
ernment is not discussing.

UNDERSTANDING
PAIN
ain is an everyday happen-
ing. Acute pain may be severe
but usually managed quickly
but chronic pain which is
quite common is very chal-
lenging to manage. Most of
the physicians fail to provide
significant relief despite
their best efforts. The first
problem is a precise diagno-
sis. Despite highly advanced
tools of investigation, accu-
rate diagnosis might evade in
a large number of cases. The
history given by the patient
tooismostlyconfusinghence,
it might not be easy to pin-
point the tissues involved.
Even the definition of chron-
ic pain is full of controversies
and differences of percep-
tions. For some physicians,
any pain which lasts more
than three months is chronic
pain while others are ada-
mant on pain of six months’
duration. A small group be-
lieves that any pain which
extends beyond normal tis-
sue healing time should be
considered as chronic pain.
As the tissues involved
might be muscle, nerve,
brain, bones, joints, liga-
ments or some internal or-
gans, it might not be possible
for a single general physician
to reach a final diagnosis. A
multidisciplinary approach
is needed and this costs a lot.
When so many specialists are
involved, the treatment be-
comes cumbersome and de-
pressing.
Chronic pain is a humon-
gous personal tragedy
. People
who suffer are mostly in a
depressed mood, the quality
of sleep is poor, fatigue is
overpowering and the power
to concentrate is lost. In a
large number of sufferers,
the libido is impacted which
may lead to excessive intake
of drugs and even alcohol.
Many times, the feeling of
dependence on other people
causes more suffering than
the impairment itself.
Loss of employment leads
to severe anxiety and mood
swings which may, ultimate-
ly
, lead to clinical depression.
In many cases, family life be-
comes negatively affected
and patients may become hy-
pochondriac and start doing
somatization of symptoms.
The management as told
earlier is frustrating. But
some relief can be provided
by medicines and physiother-
apy. Here again, it should be
very clear that painkillers
have significant side effects
and hence, should be consid-
ered only under guidance of
an experienced and updated
physician. Role of psycholo-
gy is very important though,
only few avail it due to igno-
rance and cost of treatment.
Remember,thereisnomiracle
in management of chronic
pain. One has to be psycholog-
ically very strong and coun-
selled to bear the suffering.

New Delhi: 75 sea
beaches will be cleaned
up across the country
for 75 days to mark Aza-
di Ka Amrit Mahotsav
commemorating 75th
year of the India’s in-
dependence. This was
disclosed by Union
Minister of State , Dr
Jitendra Singh who
chaired a meeting to
review preparations
for the upcoming “In-
ternational Coastal
Cleanup Day 2022” on
17th September, 2022 at
Prithvi Bhavan, Minis-
try of Earth Sciences
headquarters.
The Union Minister
said that the annual
event, which is organ-
ized on the 3rd Satur-
day of September every
year, is falling on 17th
September this year
which is, coincidental-
ly, the birthday of
Modi, who has been pi-
oneering the cause of
cleanliness (Swach-
hta), sea beach protec-
tion, environment and
climate protection in
all its forms.
Talking about the
uniqueness of this
year’s event, Dr. Jiten-
dra Singh said that it
will be the first-of-its-
kind and longest run-
ning coastal cleanup
campaign with highest
number of people par-
ticipating in it.
He said that the par-
ticipation of common
man is essential to
convey the message of
“Swachh Sagar,
Surakshit Sagar” for
prosperity of not only
coastal areas but also
other parts of country.
Singh also suggested
that other than coastal
regions, non-coastal re-
gions should also plan
to disseminate the mes-
sage to the local people
on the International
Coastal Cleanup Day
through environment
and climate change de-
partments / divisions
in various universi-
ties, colleges and other
institutions.
Hyderabad: The Rash-
triya Swayamsevak
Sangh chief Mohan
Bhagwat on Thursday
said that the student
bodies have always
been at the forefront in
Telangana. “There are
people who think that
they are the only ones
who are right, and eve-
ryone else is wrong.
When it goes against
them, they will try their
hardest to repress the
truth and justice. But
the truth does not die
through violence,” said
Bhagwat. He said that
RSS workers have sacri-
ficed a lot and it is be-
cause of their dedica-
tion that we are able to
establish an institution.
Sharat K Verma
Mumbai: Former Ma-
harashtra CM Deven-
dra Fadnavis has
avenged his insult. He
defeated the joint effort
of CM Uddhav Thack-
eray and NCP supremo
Sharad Pawar to win
the third BJP candidate
in the Rajya Sabha elec-
tions. Earlier, because
of Uddhav and Pawar,
Fadnavis had to resign
within four days of tak-
ing oath as the chief
minister. Since then he
was looking for a
chance to qual the
score. This time when
the BJP fielded a third
candidate at the behest
of Fadnavis, it seemed
that this time also the
ploy would not work in
front of Uddhav and Pa-
war. After all, Sharad
Pawar himself spoke to
the leaders of the Sama-
jwadi Party and took
two of their votes with
him and two votes of
Owaisi’s party were
also done in support of
the Cong. Yet another
Shiv Sena candidate
Sanjay Pawar lost the
election. The five Rajya
Sabha seats in Maha-
rashtra have been de-
cided by the first prefer-
ence vote. Two candi-
dates from BJP and one
each from Shiv Sena,
NCP and Cong won. The
real fight was for the
sixth seat, where Shiv
Sena’s Sanjay Pawar
was pitted against
BJP’s Dhananjay Ma-
hadik. Fadnavis en-
sured that this poll was
not decided by first
preference vote as he
knew he would win the
second preference
votes. For this, he got
the nine MLAs of small
parties supporting the
govt to cross-vote. The
main opposition BJP
has 106 MLAs of its own
and is supported by sev-
en other MLAs. The saf-
fron party received sup-
port of one MLA from
Raj Thackeray’s party
and won the support of
nine other MLAs. Fad-
navis was so confident
of winning the third
seat that he first allot-
ted 48 votes each to both
the candidates Piyush
Goyal and Anil Bonde,
while 41 votes were
needed to win one seat.
His third candidate got
27 first preference votes
and adding the second
preference votes, the to-
tal votes crossed the 41
vote mark easily

with consensus. “It is
not good to discuss
Sharad Pawar’s
name despite his de-
cision not to contest
presidential elec-
tions. Sharad Pawar
is a big leader. He
(Sharad Pawar) him-
self knows that he
will be defeated in
these polls. So, it is
not right for opposi-
tion parties to dis-
cuss his name,”
Athawale. He further
appealed to the oppo-
sition parties to
think about the con-
sensus in nominat-
ing the right candi-

Will there be a
Chautala family?
Mahesh Sharma
New Delhi: After the
results of the Rajya Sab-
ha elections in Haryana,
many possibilities are
being discussed, but an
important possibility
has arisen that the
Chautala family can
come together as one as
efforts are being made
in this regard for the
last few days.
Now it seems
that a con-
crete step has
been taken in
that direc-
tion. The lone
MLA of the
Indian Na-
tional Lok
Dal (INLD)
Abhay Chau-
tala has cast
his vote for
independent candidate
KartikeyaSharma.This
initself isasignthatthe
campaign to unite the
Chautala family has
gone ahead. Keep in
mind that Karthikeya
Sharma was made a
candidate by the Jan-
nayak Janata Party,
which is part of the Har-
yana govt. He was an
independent but was
nominated by 10 JJP
MLAs.JannayakJanata
Party is led by Dushyant
Chautala, son of Ajay
Chautala, brother of
Abhay Chautala. Given
the kind of enmity that
existed in the Chautala
family until recently, it
was difficult to imagine
that Abhay Chautala
would vote for Dushyant
Chautala’s candidate.
Before voting, Bhupin-
der Singh Hooda and
Congress leaders were
confident that Abhay
Chautala would not vote
for anyone. But he voted
for the candidate sup-
ported by
D u s hya n t
Chautala.
After this
the possibil-
ity of com-
ing together
of both the
families has
increased. It
is being told
that as long
as Om-
p r a k a s h
Chautala was out of jail,
he kept trying to unite
the family
. But now that
he is in jail, efforts are
still underway
. One hur-
dle in that is about the
party leadership. Dush-
yant Chautala’s brother
Digvijay Chautala says
thatif JJPandINLDare
one, then command of
party will be in the
hands of his father, Ajay
Chautala. On the other
hand, INLD leaders
want that Dushyant is
Dy CM, so the command
of the party should re-
main in the hands of
Abhay Chautala.
PIL IN SC SEEKS DIRECTIONS TO SACK

New Delhi: A PIL has been moved in the Supreme Court

plea, BJP leader and lawyer
Ashwini Upadhyay, sought
directions to ensure that
the Minister, who is not
only a public servant but
also a Lawmaker and takes a constitutional oath, shall be
temporarily debarred from holding the office, after 2 days
in judicial custody (like IAS, IPS, judges and other public
servants are suspended from their services).The petitioner
has sought direction to the Maha govt to sack its Cabinet
Minister Nawab Malik who was arrested on February 23.

NEW MINING
POLICY IN
ABYSS
The new mining policy it
seems have gone into an
abyss and it seems
improbable to dig it out.
It’s been an year that the
decided timeline to get the
policy going has passed and
their seems to be no light at
the end of the tunnel.Last
year on April 30, ACS
Subodh Agarwal had
directed the committee to
put forward the new mining
policy to the government in
a fortnight. That was the end
of the story. Such has been
the laxity of mining
department that the new
policy aimed at bringing
transparency, better
utilisation of available
technology and would be
investment friendly is stuck.
Given the constraints the
new policy that could have
focused on zero wastage of
resources, ensured scientific
digging of minerals ,
planned the lease of mines
scientifically and created a
better mining conducive
environment is at the
receiving end of red
tapeism.

several Congress lead-
ers were taken into cus-
tody during the ongoing
protest against the ED
probe in the National
Herald case, party lead-
er Sachin Pilot, who
was among those de-
tained by the Delhi Po-
lice on Wednesday
while he was on his way
to the AICC headquar-
ters, slammed the Cen-
tre on Thursday for
hampering the spirit of
democracy
.
Pilot said, “Yesterday
,
you saw the Police enter
Congress Headquar-
ters. They lathi-
charged, and detained
hundreds of people.
Senior people, MLAs,
MPs, and office-bearers
of the party were bru-
talised. A woman MP’s
clothes were torn. Such
action is uncalled for.
Never before has Police
has taken such action.”
“Three days before,
we said that we will do
Satyagraha. We wanted
a peaceful march, that
was denied. Today, they
made sure that we
aren’t able to protests.
In a democracy, if you
can’t speak out, if you
can’t protest, then how
do you do your job as an
Opposition?,” Pilot
lashed out at Centre.
First India Bureau
New Delhi: The ED’s
interrogation of Rahul
Gandhi in National Her-
ald case has heated up
the political atmosphere
from Delhi to Jaipur
Congress leaders are
protesting against ED
notice while showing
solidarity with Rahul
Gandhi. Every leader
wants to be seen with
Rahul Gandhi at this
time. At the same time,
CM Ashok Gehlot is
seen carrying out the
frontal assault through
the protest. In this cam-
paign of Congress in
Delhi, the political
meaning of Gehlot’s ap-
pearance in the front
role is being extracted.
Gehlot’s active pres-
ence on every front,
from demonstrations to
supporting the party
, re-
mains a topic of politi-
cal discussion. Gehlot
has been an attacker on
the Centre since the be-
ginning over the ED,
CBI income tax raids.
After the notices to Ra-
hul Gandhi and Sonia
Gandhi, his attitude has
become more aggres-
sive. Before becoming
the CM, Gehlot was in
the role of General Sec-
retary of Congress ac-
cording to senior lead-
ers, Gehlot is seen in the
same old role in anti-ED
movement. After win-
ning the RS elections,
Gehlot’s image has be-
come that of a skilled
strategist and political
leader.
During Rahul’s inter-
rogation, CM Gehlot
Bhupesh Baghel were
seen on the streets with
senior leaders from the
Congress HQs to out-
side ED’s office. Gehlot
makes daily strategy
with big leaders in the
Congress office and
then is also seen in dem-
onstrations with them
and the senior Congress
leader is also being giv-
en priority by other
party leaders in party’s
‘charge’ against union
government.
Gehlot has experi-
ence of working with
four generations of the
Gandhi family
. Despite
the internal political up-
swings of Congress, this
experience has been
useful for him political-
ly
. Gehlot has worked
with Rahul Gandhi as
the general secretary of
the organisation while
Rahul was Congress
president and has also
been National General
Secretary in Sonia Gan-
dhi’s team. Due to this
experience of working
in the organisation, he
is now again seen in the
front.
Political experts be-
lieve that ongoing politi-
cal demonstration in
Delhi will further im-
pact internal equation
of Rajasthan Congress.
At present, Congress
govt is in Rajasthan
Chhattisgarh, so there
is a demand of both
CMs. Gehlot has had
more political experi-
ence, the effect of which
is being seen for last 3
days. Thus, it is believed
that CM’s camp can be
seen in appointments of
the government and the
organisation going for-
ward.
Togetherness – with high doses of
love, forgiveness and understanding
– keeps a family together.

pearing several times
before ED over the past
few days, Rahul Gandhi
will now appear before
the agency on June 20
for which he had sought
permission from ED of-
ficials, informing about
Sonia Gandhi’s ill-
health. While Rahul has
been fighting the ‘battle’
inside ED offices, Gan-
dhi family loyalist
Ashok Gehlot has been
fighting the battle for
Gandhis and party out-
side the ED premises.
While Gehlot stressed
that since “Sonia ji’s not
well, So it (Rahul’s go-
ing) will depend, if he
will go tomorrow or on
Monday
.”
Meanwhile, CM Ge-
hlot also spoke on Agn-
eepath Scheme saying,

hear that Agniveers will

ployment. Where there
are more Muslims, Hin-
dus have trouble sleep-
ing. Where Hindus are
more, Muslims have
problems. What will
happen now? They can’t
build brotherhood And
trust,” Gehlot said.

Rahul ji has been called
now, then they will call
Sonia ji. Is Sonia ji in
any condition to go for
questioning?” Adding
further,theCMsaid,“In
the world, until the
crime is proved, a per-
son is seen with respect,
but here you are insult-
ing. I am talking about
this not only in the case
of the Enforcement Di-
rectorate, but also the
police. We have to
change in the 21st cen-
tury, when the time
comes, the public will
give a befitting reply
.”

benefits of the scheme
while losses are more.

deals with social media trolling and
the negativity
. She had said that she
has become indifferent to it.
Recently, Janhvi had said, “I
have become increasingly in-
different to it. But time and
again, I think I’m always a little
surprised and taken aback by just
the double standards sometimes.
And how bitter some people can be,
but then again, it’s not a big deal.”
The actress at times gives it
back to the internet trolls
in her unique style.

THE PAIN PASSES,
BUT THE BEAUTY
REMAINS!
amed for his
a l l u r i n g
nudes and
enchanting
scenes of
pretty wom-
en, Auguste
Renoir was a far
more complex and
thoughtful painter
than generally as-
sumed. He was a
founding member of
the Impressionist
movement, however,
he ceased to display
with the group after
1877. From the 1880s
until well into the
twentieth century, he
developed a monu-
mental, classically
inspired style that
influenced such
avant-garde giants as
Pablo Picasso. This
French artist has
lived an idiosyncrat-
ic life, after the string
of rejections by the
conservative Salon
de Paris, he along
with his fellow artist
friends formed an
Anonymous Society
of Painters, Sculp-
tors and Engravers,
later known as the
Impressionists.
These like-minded
people mounted their
first Impressionist
exhibition in 1874,
during this exhibi-
tion, he showcased
his six impressive
impressionist paint-
ings! The Impres-
sionists, as they were
called, sought to cap-
ture modern life, and
Renoir’s works from
this period focused
on everyday people.
Though Renoir be-
gan his artistic ca-
reer as a porcelain
painter; nonetheless,
his ambitions to be-
come a professional
artist encouraged
him to pursue other
instruction.
This independent
artist with his new-
found financial free-
dom tried his hands
on other artistic di-
rection as well. After
showcasing his de-
sired arts in 2-3 con-
tinuous exhibitions,
he became one of the
most successful and
most famous artists
of that time, his eve-
ry art expressed
scepticism about the
durability of the Im-
pressionist aesthetic
and richness of emo-
tion and a warmth of
response to the world
its people. His first
painting in this vein,
Luncheon of the
Boating Party exhib-
its a new solidity and
clarity in the depic-
tion of the figures
and their placement
within space, espe-
cially when com-
pared to Moulin de la
Galette. After run-
ning a successful
movement, by the
mid-1880s he broke
the independent art
movement to learn a
more disciplined and
formal approach to
art and mainly Wom-
en’s art. His most
iconic painting from
this period, Dance at
the Moulin de la Gal-
ette (Musée d’Orsay,
Paris), explores dap-
pled light as it flut-
ters over young
Montmartre revelers
flirting, drinking,
and dancing.
Renoir’s inclina-
tion for portraiture
attracted the atten-
tion of a range of
patrons with avant-
garde sensibilities.
From the politically
radical pastry cook
Eugène Murer to the
wealthy society lady
Madame Georges
Charpentier, Renoir
painted all of his pa-
trons with affection-
ate charm. One of
his most magnificent
and enterprising
portraits, the paint-
ing of Marguerite
Charpentier with
her children mixes a
modern informality
and intimacy with
the compositional
rigor of an old mas-
ter portrait. Reclin-
ing Nude is an excel-
lent example of his
painting style in the
mid-1880s. The mar-
ble or porcelainlike
figure is sharply de-
fined against an im-
pressionistically
brushed landscape.
The spatial relation-
ship between the
nude and the amor-
phous background is
deliberately unclear.
Renoir had shifted
his investigation of
the old masters from
linear classicism to
the coloristic tradi-
tions of Titian and
Rubens as well as the
unabashedly sensual
beauty of eight-
e e n t h - c e n t u r y
French art.
His finest example
of linear classicism
is Young Girl Bath-
ing, which exhibits
his softened touch.
His love for art took
him to a different
level, despite old age
and declining health,
Renoir persisted in
artistic experimenta-
tion. Even in the last
three decades of his
life when he was suf-
fering from severe
rheumatoid arthritis
he was found paint-
ing with the brush
tied to his wrists. His
love for art depicts
true emotions and
powerful affirmation
of his unmatchable
desires.
French magician, Renior was known for his
mesmerizing Impressionist movement. His
pure skills have given life to many
imaginary people. Let’s dive into the
amazing world of Renior!

lazers, for-
merly con-
sidered a
masculine
staple, are
now fa-
voured by both gen-
ders for their ability
to quickly bring re-
finementandsophis-
tication to any en-
semble. They can
makeanythingwork-
appropriate, from a
strapless dress to
jeans and a shirt.
BOYFRIEND
BLAZER
We all know that
fashion fads come
and go, but a styl-
ish boyfriend blaz-
er is something
that every lady
should have in her
closet. It’s a
founda-
t i o n -
a l
piece that will al-
low you to con-
struct foolproof
outfits that are up
to date.
OVERSIZED
SINGLE-
BREASTED
BLAZER
An oversized single-
breasted jacket is
the easiest garment
to put on, whether
casually with jeans
or dressed up for a
meeting. Layer over
anything from day-
time crop tops to
business shirts,
nighttime go-to
tops, weekend jeans
or festival boho
dresses. An over-
sized single-breast-
ed jacket is a versa-
tile piece that can be
worn in both the
city and the desert.
HOUNDSTOOTH
BLAZER
We adore tailored
coats that can be
dressed up. One of
them is a hound-
stooth blazer. Pair
with a t-shirt and
jeans or a
sweater and shorts
for everyday wear. It
will work well over a
similar skirt or with
a silk shirt and nar-
row pants for a more
boyish appeal when
you need to dress up.
TWEED BLAZER
When it comes to
wearing a blazer for
something special
throughout the day,
pretty and tweed are
the way to go. A
tweed blazer is not
just one of the sea-
son’s most fashion-
able blazers, but it’s
also ideal for a luxu-
rious tea party
.
WHITE BLAZER
A sleek white blaz-
er is a must-have
item for this sea-
son, and it will
work with shorts or
a slip dress long
into the summer.
You’ll enjoy how
versatile it is,
whether you wear it
with a similar bot-
tom or a contrast-
ing dress, skirt,
or shorts to cre-
ate different
outfits.
