black, with spaghetti straps holding up its straight-across top. There is also a one-size separate bra. All of it comes in a little plastic bag which you grab off a counter for $12. It makes a wonderful second suit, and the price is certainly right.

Still with Rose Marie Reid (they make everything) there are thong beach sandals of matching leather and rope, black, white, colors, $8. A shady beach hat that any sun-avoider would be a fool not to buy in all colors - and black which would go even on a city street - is cotton pique, washable, adjustable, pokable into different shapes and becoming as a dimple, $7. They also do huge hopsacking bags, all colors and ideas, to stuff your stuff into, $5 to $7. For store information, see end of column.

At Geno of California they go in for kicky high-fashion, whether it's in beach dresses or the dress-up pants outfits increasingly favored at stylish California parties by hostess and guests alike. And color! Their prints are juicy with it.

The newest outfit for evenings at home, or out, for that matter, is sketched. This is a wild and wonderful blaze of red, blue and green printed on firmly woven - and lined - needlepoint textured cotton. You wouldn't have to wear a stitch under it.

The shell top zips down the back from a good scoop neck, is about $18. The dragon skirt (well, that's what they call it) flips out in back, nice and dramatic, about $28. Just add a good Max Factor make-up and you won't get lost in any crowd.
