……………………………………Many of you may have seen me on FEW this past Friday morning with two of my favorite people, Jayne and Pat, when I was selling the A239322, Whisper Knit Scarf……It is now on CLEARANCE for the amazing price of $19.98, and that includes the gift box, the tissue and the elastic silver cord!….Over 1100 were sold, and the Brick Red is now on wait list, but I wouldn’t hold my breath waiting for a return!…I can personally vouch for this scarf as I own them in every color. As soon as the weather gets cool enough to wear a scarf….out them come from storage. I have never worn a more comfortable scarf, and I have a variety of winter scarves….from cashmere and cashmere blended with silk or wool, all wool, and wool blends, boucle and even acrylics which tend to pill and get one seasons wear….until they look ready for the garbage……………These scarves are light in weight, but still substantial. What I love mostly, besides the comfort, is that you can wear them many ways without ever feeling that they are too bulky and that they are wearing you. I hate scarves that make me feel I can’t turn my head from right to left…………..These make great gifts for any and everyone……from your fathers, husbands, brothers and sons, yes great for the guys, to your mothers, sisters and daughters and best friends. At this price they also make great gifts to those  special people in the service industry like the women and men who cut and color your hair…..the special teachers who take care of your children…..an aid or nurse who takes special care of your parents….you know who they are. Everyone knows a special someone that they want to show their appreciation to for taking care of  those we love…including ourselves!… This makes a very impressive gift, and it is worth so much more then the $19.98 it is now priced at. I know if it were given to me I’d be really happy. As a matter of fact I ordered four more black for myself, because I don’t want to be with out, and when they are sold out….they are gone. I also ordered additional ones in different colors as back ups. I have already planned to give them as presents to my dog nannies…..a mother and son team who take care of my little precious ones when Jac and I are away. People like that, who you can trust implicitly are not easy to find, and a little extra present like this WK scarf will be much appreciated…….It has happened when a friend has said to me, “Louis that’s a great scarf”, and I have just taken it off and given it to them……so I definitely need back ups…..LOL………………………………..Also, remember that today EVERYTHING is on FOUR EZ PAYS!!!…………………………enjoy…………………………..Happy Holidays………..much Love………………Louis

…………………………..One of my ALL TIME FAVORITE pieces of jewelry are the PALM FROND short NECKLACE, J290362……the PALM FROND longer 42 inch NECKLACE, J290364……..and the PALM FROND EARRING, 290363, which are avail both clip and pierced………………..To say that these pieces are unique is a huge understatement…..just read the reviews………Spectacular, gorgeous, breathtaking are just a few of the adjectives quoted by many of the women who have purchased and reviewed the pieces…..and this is just a handful of women who own the Palm Frond group.The workmanship and the plating is superb and beyond compare…. Each piece had initially sold out and each was reordered in the…….GOLD……SILVER….and GUNMETAL………but……..this is the FINAL QUANTITIES of these pieces because they will go into retirement when they are sold out. I say this because I know there are still many of you who have considered these pieces, but with the passage of time they may have been forgotten……Many of you missed out when they were originally sold and pleaded with me to bring them back. You must realize that when something is a reorder….deciding that is totally out of my control…So when the criteria was met to bring these pieces back those of you who were waiting were able to get them. I don’t want to see that story played back to me when these Palm Frond pieces are no longer avail. Right now all of the pieces are avail in all of the colors so complete sets can be gotten, but I don’t know for how long I can make that claim.These are extremely SPECIAL pieces for a very special person in your life that you would want to give an extra special gift to …..or that special person may just be YOU!……………..For those of you who are new to Linea the Palm Frond Group was a group I originally designed when I was designing for the Anne Klein Collection many years ago. These pieces are direct copies of those pieces. Once in a BLUE MOON one of these pieces may show up on ebay, but personally I have only seen the short necklace once and it was listed at $450…Women simply do not want to part with these collector pieces, and they are rarely avail…..Each row of the fronds on the short necklace, and the earring is a separate piece on a fine chain so there is a great deal of fluidity and movement to them. Each piece makes a strong enough statement to wear separately, and for those of you who believe MORE is BETTER, [I’m a strong believer in that philosophy], all three pieces can be worn together for a spectacular effect. Jac has worn all three pieces on vacation with a black tank and Capri pants or Boho skirt. She has also worn them during the winter exactly as I have shown above with my black CASHMERE/SILK TN, which is on CLEARANCE, A83962 [which is now only avail in Ivory, and will still look fabulous with any of the metal colors], and either Winter White or Black pants……I love jewelry that has an ORGANIC INFLUENCE……pieces that are inspired by nature. These pieces will NEVER go out of style. As long as palm trees exist….these pieces will be relevant……and today with Global warming even more so…………I know for some of you the earring may be a proportion you simply can’t wear, or you may have just jumped to that conclusion. If you read the reviews you will read from both sides. There are petite women who say they are too much for them, but others feel they are so beautiful that they can easily carry them off….it’s all about attitude. For those of you who can’t there are alternative earrings you can wear with the Palm Frond necklaces. Either the Demi Hoop,J270391 [which works for everyone in clip or pierced]], or the Bold Hoop, J288005 [clip only], would be wonderful with these pieces…………………….If the pieces are something  just can’t spend the $$$ for all at once….each piece is NOW on 4 EASY PAYS, and starting at midnight tonight [Saturday], I have heard though reliable sources you should look for easy pays on almost if not everything!!!!!!! I truly hope one or more of these pieces make your Holidays a little brighter, and when you are wearing them…..for a moment…. think of me……………………………………………………………………………………enjoy…………………………..HAPPY HOLIDAYS……………………………much Love……………………………………..Louis

…………………………………….The very popular WING COLLAR COTTON SHIRT, A259103, is now avail in all colors….almost in ALL sizes. The white and lt tan had sold out,, but there are a few avail……If you missed it the “second” time around this many be a good opportunity to pick it up……….If it gets reordered I will only bring back the white, and maybe the pale pink which wasn’t reordered the last time………………….It is my favorite collar that works with and under everything….the perfect layering piece, and wonderful on it’s own…………………………enjoy……………………much Love………………………Louis

………………………………..JET JEWELRY should absolutely be an ESSENTIAL in EVERY woman’s wardrobe…………………………It is one of the most important accessories that a woman should own. It can work DAY or NIGHT, and for EVERY SEASON. There simply isn’t anything like it, and there is absolutely no replacement for it. Since this has already been reordered once……..the chances of it being reordered again is slim to none. I say this because if you have had it on your wish list, or even if you haven’t contemplated purchasing it…..now is the time to give it serious consideration. The clear and gunmetal have already sold out! Each item is made of high quality FACETED GLASS. Most jet jewelry that is sold today is made of plastic. The reflection and the shine, the faceted edges just can not compare with glass. What I am showing above I consider the “starter” pieces………………The 72 inch long NECKLACE, J284043, has tiny separator beads to keep it fluid, and has a 3 inch extender. Why have an extender on such a long necklace???, because it gives the woman a variety of ways to wear it……..DOUBLED………..TRIPLED………..and QUADRUPLED!……This IS the must have piece!……From here you can add and layer what you want. I love layering the spaced Jet bead necklace, J291535, with the doubled 72″ necklace. It makes a statement of a woman who isn’t afraid to mix it up and add her own special uniqueness. It is also very light in weight and DELICATE, so it is perfect for layering. This is also a marvelous necklace to wear on its’ own. It adds a subtle sparkle to what you’re wearing. I truly think it is worth it to own two of each of these necklaces……For a “Chanel Look”…..layer it up, and even throw in a strand of pearls for a retro “Art Deco” feel……………..The stretch FACETED BRACELET,J291536, is also a must have. One, two or three will work with any outfit. Have fun mixing them with other bracelets you already own…..i.e. two jet bracelets with a stretch pearl bracelet in between….or my J284044, the faceted jet bead bracelet. The jets are separated with conical metal spacer beads in silver or gold, which make a perfect foil for the simple jet bracelet. A silver, gold, gunmetal or chocolate bangle in between will work perfectly well too….The Drop Earring, J317115, is a beautifully detailed piece, and easy to wear because of its’ lightness. The tiny stones set into the “branches” of the earring, and the cap of the jet drop add just enough glimmer to bring attention back to the face…………These are four pieces, but in my opinion…..four very important pieces to enhance any woman’s Linea jewelry wardrobe…….Some other Linea Jet pieces to consider are J273583, the JET and GUNMETAL faceted bead long necklace…..J273584, the JET and GUNMETAL faceted bead multi row stretch bracelet. Both mix beautifully with the solid jet necklaces and bracelet……….For something truly special the spectacular J317112, large TEARDROP faceted jet necklace. This is a very special piece and it is not for every one. This is a necklace I can easily see Iris Apfel wearing with authority…and she is a tiny woman who has the attitude of a 6 foot amazon…Some reviews call it……”Amazing”, “Unique”, “Wonderful”, and “a necklace with PANACHE”…..This is truly a runway Designer piece and it makes a MAJOR STATEMENT. Naturally, it is one of my favorites….I say….”go big or go home!” LOL……The HIGH QUALITY of these pieces makes them worth getting….If for any reason something should happen to a piece…..PLEASE remember my manufacturer will stand behind the pieces and will fix, within reason, what ever is necessary…..just let me know………………This is crunch time as far as gift giving is concerned and I couldn’t think of a more beautiful, timeless present for a best friend, a sister, a daughter, a niece, a mother or a grand mother…………………..Every woman loves to get a piece of jewelry, and you can’t go wrong with……..JET………………………………………………………………………enjoy……………………………..much Love…………………………………….Louis

*******************It’s December 1st……and with the Holiday season and New Years Eve only days away……can you believe how soon it came upon us…….where did September go?……………It’s time to think of all things GLITTERY, SPARKLY and WONDERFUL!………..The Holiday look that I love best is a simple sweater with a velvet pant or black sequin skirt and marvelous “Diamond” jewelry. My favorite pieces are all pictured above, but I must forewarn…..some of the colors are already very limited or sold out………….J271864, is the watch which has two rows of metal bead borders at each side of the band, and three rows of faceted crystals in the center of the band. The oblong curved face of the watch also has a row of tiny crystals surrounding it. This looks like an estate piece that could have cost thousands of dollars if it were real diamonds…..This one can fool many. It has a 100% approval review. It doesn’t get better than that….The gold and crystal combination has sold out, but the silver tone and crystal is still avail. I was told many many years ago by a famous jeweler that in his opinion “important” diamonds should be set in platinum, which as you know is a white metal and close in color to silver. I asked why, and he said because it sets off and shows the color and brilliance of the diamond at its’ best……at its’ purest. Of course whether it is set in silver or yellow gold is a matter of preference, and both look beautiful………J296894, is the Brooch which also has the look of a very important estate piece. What makes this wonderful is the fact the the brooch is BOMBED, meaning the surface has a curve. It is sunken in the center…..elevates to the center and drops down again to the edge of the pin. The crystals are also set to exaggerate the shape, and the metal work is superb……….The LARGE center PEARL creates the MAGIC and sets this pin above all others….The colors avail are the silver tone shown above and the gold tone shown in the photo to the upper left…….Unfortunately the Gunmetal version of the pin has sold out…Pins have taken a back seat for a while…..but…..this is so special that all you will receive is compliments on its’ uniqueness….It looks like a brooch a Maharaja might have worn……..At the bottom of a V neck line on a black velvet top, or perched on a shoulder makes a statement of pure glamour…………………The crystal encrusted “Shrimp” earring, J317111, is avail in both clip and pierced. Again, the metal work is superb, and the graduating crystals give just enough sparkle. These can be worn day or night. They are avail in the yellow gold and crystal, silver and crystal and the wonderful GUNMETAL and Black diamond…..The QVC photo is really bad and does not do the GM earring any justice, but if you own the broach on the GM you know how the earring will look……………..The reversible CROSS, J317110, has been very popular and is now sold out in the gunmetal, but is still avail in the silver tone and gold tone, both with clear crystals on one side and solid metal on the other. The crystal side of the gold and silver has a pearl at its’ center, and the metal side of the gold and silver has an emerald cut black jet. This makes the cross very versatile and can easily be worn both day and night……………….The DROP earring, J317115, in the photo to the upper left has a beautiful faceted drop at the very bottom in CLEAR on the gold and crystal combination, and Jet on the GM combination [not shown above]. The “stem” of the earring is made of two tiny “branches” totally paved, and the bottom drop has a cap that is also studded with crystals. There is a great deal of detail to this earring which really sets it apart. The clear drop happens to look wonderful with the 72 inch long glass faceted bead necklace that many of you own……..The earring and that necklace worn on Winter White is truly beautiful!……………………The CRYSTAL BRACELET, J317113, is constructed in a way that it can self adjust to different size wrists by sliding on the thin metal bands beneath. This bracelet is also BOMBED which makes it very special, and again sets it apart from many other crystal bracelets……It is also avail in the silver tone or the gold tone………………………….These pieces were all designed to be worn TOGETHER……..Do not be afraid to GLITTER ………Evenings out give all women the opportunity to SHINE…….as they should!…………………………………………..Happy Holidays………….enjoy………………..much Love…………..
