…………..LAST but not least the PEWTER, and Ladies it is gorgeous in this PEWTER color….very SLINKY and extremely flattering. Of course the darker the color the less you see the flecks, but they are there. Above, I have it with the SMOKE FEATHER JERSEY MAXI…………I will say that there is SHAPE to the two pieces, but not overly. I would recommend you buy your normal size [you know how I hate giving fit recommendations because everyone likes things to fit differently] I like these pieces to look easy……….so look at the “click here measurement” on the Linea site……………Either with GUNMETAL OR SILVER or MIXED you can not go wrong………….Remember the necklace with the four metal colors…………PERFECT with this sophisticated….CHIC………PEWTER…………………..enjoy………….much Love……………………………………Louis

Hi all….I hope you had a wonderful and safe weekend…………I have been getting requests to bring back styles from the past that many of you have been enjoying and wish you could get again….so I thought I would put it out to you what styles you would like to see an “encore” of…………….”A” numbers please………………No promises, but I have put the idea out to my buyer and she thinks it’s a great idea. Of course we will have to do some research as to  why it  didn’t get reordered in the first place, but it’s worth taking a look at. I loved the overlay skirt and the dolman sleeve crinkle gorgette top that some of you have inquired about, and I was surprised it didn’t do well enough to be reordered, but maybe it can have a second life?????????????????……….for now let’s keep it to spring/summer items…………much Love…………………Louis

Hi everyone……….There are 39 flags in all of the picture so for those of you who counted more I think you may have mistaken a red geranium for a flag….LOL….for those of you who counted less…..you may need a magnifying glass….LOL………..It has been a spectacular weekend, and promises to be a beautiful Sunday. Last night there were fireworks in the local harbor and we could see the flotilla of boats sailing right in front of our  house on their way to find a good viewing spot. The fireworks were great and afterwards, as the boats sailed away, they all blasted their horns in appreciation……….I had my two HOTDOG! Now I’ll have to wait another year to get my hotdog fix!………I had heard early predictions of a HOT/WET summer, but so far the weather here in New England has been, in general, wonderful……knock on wood…………My father would say after the 4th of July it was “the countdown to fall”. As a child that was not what I wanted to hear, because that meant school was right around the corner too. Now, I know there is still plenty of summer ahead, but I can’t help  hearing those words in my head! Since I’m already planning the fall shows….Aug. 1st is the first full fall show……….I guess it isn’t that far away…………..Winter always seems so long and summer so short, but I plan to enjoy every minute……………..

……………………………………………………enjoy………………………………much Love………………. Louis

HAPPY 4th OF JULY EVERYONE!!!!!!………………….This summer is flying by………….where did June go?………….The 4th is one of my favorite Holidays. The only day of the year I’m allowed to eat a Hot Dog!!! As my father always said, “the 4th wouldn’t be the 4th without  hamburgers and HOT DOGS”….and a little ice cream to finish it off!……truer words were never spoken……….Due to the weather the fire works were canceled until tomorrow night, but thanks to Mother Nature we had a HUGE light show last night in the way of LIGHTNING!!!!! Today is calm and the skies are supposed to clear nicely by the time the NYC MACY’S  fire works are to start. We will be watching, with the girls, on TV. Jac and I hope you all have a fun filled SAFE day…………….Mother Nature……………..no more hurricanes and fires please!!!!!…..a little game for you……how many flags are in all of the pictures….hint……even a part of a flag counts………..God bless…………..much Love………………….Jac & Louis

Dear Dariann……….I just saw on the news the horrific fires in the Napa Valley. I hope they aren’t anywhere near you…..stay safe……………To all of my friends in the path of Hurricane Arthur…..please do what is necessary to be safe. It’s coming my way, but hopefully will go out to sea and all we will get is rain……………Be careful out there everyone!………..much Love, Louis
