Hello all……what NEW colors would you like to see in the:

1-A343162, Blazer

I was thinking Scarlet Red, Dk Forest Green, Caramel, possibly Winter White if the factory would make it….However the W.W. may be more expensive to produce. Any other colors?? I can only do 2 or 3

2-A297864, Leather /knit jacket

Since the Magenta did so well I was thinking of another color like a Royal Purple or Sapphire Blue…..any feeling for some high fashion colors?

3-A268216, Super Ponte Boot Cut pant

Hello all of my Dear Friends…………….sorry for posting this tribute so late. I have been out all day…………………Veteran’s Days means many things to many people. It can be very personal reminding us of those we lost a long time ago, or very recently……………..For me on this day, I remember all the wonderful young men I met when I was in the army at Fort Polk, Louisiana. I made some close friendships during Basic Training, but after that we were all split up….many to advanced infantry training where the majority of the young men went. We all new the next step for most of them after that was going to be Vietnam. I was one of the lucky ones and finished my service in the states……So on this day I think of Paul from PA,  Steve from Texas, Jake from NY, Cal from Georgia and all the others that I became buddies with. I hope they all came home safe and sound………………………………………..blessings to all the Veterans…..past and present………………………….much Love to all…………………………..Louis

……………………………………PEARLS…………………PEARLS………………..and more PEARLS…………….It has started ladies….the big return of PEARLS. You may ask, “did they go away?” Well, in the world of fashion’s “INS” and “OUTS”, pearls definitely had a cool down…………….but that is all changing. Pearls are taking the lead again. I have already introduced 3 or 4 new designs in pearls for the Holiday season and there will be more coming for Spring 2019………The “NEW PEARLS”, have taken a new twist. It’s not just your simple strand of pearls. The newness is in how they are used, and how they are combined with other beads and stones……..like the beautiful JET, FIREBALL and IVORY BAROQUE PEARLS…..or the beautiful necklace with the rows of pearls mixed with multi color faceted glass beads….all connecting to beautiful multi stone “brooches”…….The necklace and earring set above is another great example of that. J387825 is the style number. This is a station necklace with GLASS PEARLS and FACETED GLASS ROUND BEADS. Each color pearl is paired with a bead to compliment it. Some have an AURORA BOREALIS  effect, like the LILAC MIST, IVORY and NUDE PINK……The GREY ICE glass bead is MILKY WHITE with a SILVER GREY appearing on certain sides of the bead, so there is always something to attract the eye…..something different!…………….The larger SIZE of the PEARLS and GLASS BEADS is what takes this necklace from a dainty strand to a STATEMENT PIECE. It can be worn long, doubled, and for some, tripled. The STUD PEARL EARRING is a good size, and will show well on the ear…………….These are necklaces that will go with many things in your existing wardrobes and will work with things I have coming this Spring 2019……like MORE ICE GREY WHISPER KNITS!……… They are great for mixing with things you may already own….for example…..try the Nude Pink pearls with your “Spirit” pendant in the pink. It would make a wonderful combination…….In the photos I have sometimes used two or even three necklaces to achieve a layered look……….These sets will also make the perfect present for someone special on your list. Really…..who doesn’t like pearls, and there is a color to suit anyone’s taste…………………………….Happy Holidays………………………………..much Love………………………………..Louis

Hi everyone………I just wanted to remind you that this coming Thursday, Nov. 8th, I will be on QVC2 at 10:00pm for two hours. I only have two more appearances this year, this Thursday and Nov. 19th at 6:00am on the main channel for my Holiday Fashion Day Show. I also have a hit on the 7:00am Morning show on the 19th, so I hope I will have the opportunity to “see” you all before the Holidays……………….

…………………………much Love……………………….Louis

……………………I LOVE SPARKLY THINGS……….Ever since a I was a child I loved things the glistened. I loved when the faceted glass prisms  on the chandelier  created rainbows on the wall at my mother’s house. It is something that has stayed with me my whole life. I would always call Jac into the dining room or she would call me as the sun was setting and the light was hitting the prisms  of our chandelier just right…..casting hundreds of rainbows on the wall, ceiling and floor…it was magical……………….Some of my absolute favorite jewelry pieces are the ones that sparkle….they have such LIFE!……….The necklaces in the photos do that for me….they are joyful in their sparkle………………The STATION NECKLACE and EARRING SET, J358187, is the perfect combination of BOLD and DELICATE. Its’ 72 inch length gives you the ability to wear it many ways….doubled, tripled or quadrupled., which is a great way to fill in a collar. The earring is just enough to compliment the necklace without competing with it………………The TORSADE is another affair, J358185. This is a statement piece….a magnificent one! The combination of round glass faceted beads, and the asymmetrically placed pave’ rhinestone beads elevates this necklace into the “DESIGNER  STRATOSPHERE”. I did these necklace over 28 years ago for ANNE KLEIN COUTURE, and I will probably never do them again…….which immediately puts them into “Collectors” category. These are unique pieces that will not come around again, and I guarantee you will not find the likes in any store……..By showing them on a simple Scarlet Red sweater with an Ivory skirt, then with a red pant, and again with the new Scarlet Red velvet top illustrates how these pieces will move from season to season……making any occasion a special one. How easy it will be to dress up for any event coming up in this or next year!……..I call the color RUBY, my birthstone, but QVC romantically calls it “red”…………………………..Whatever the name………step out of your comfort zone and wear something that will definitely have all eyes upon YOU!!……………………………………………………….Happy Holidays……………………..much Love……………………………..Louis
