……………………..IVORY JACKETS ARE THE BACKBONE OF A SUMMER WARDROBE, but they are equally important all year long!………..What makes the Ivory Shantung so special?? The LUMINESCENCE of the fabric……..It looks like a PEARL……..There are so many ways to wear an ivory jacket that I don’t feel it’s necessary to give a list you already know…..so….I am showing it over basic BLACK…..What I did what to show you is how wonderful this Ivory jacket looks over both the Latte and Vivid Blue emb skirts……….both with black tanks and coordinating necklaces. BTW, I love the Chocolate Moon glow with the Latte emb skirt and the ivory jacket. How fabulous will this jacket look over skinny black ankle pants……very Audrey………………………………………..

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

I have just gotten word that ALL QVC2 Shows are now CANCELED until further notice. The only live QVC2 shows will be BIG DEAL SHOWS…….so….the Linea 3/17th at 2pm, and the 3/19 show at 4pm are now kaput!!!!!!………………….Happy Trails everyone!

Hello my Dear friends…………….after much soul searching, and many discussions, we as a team have decided to cancel any further Live Face Book shows. The decision, in a way, was made for us. We had already decided no train travel from PA to CT, and now all road rest stops have been closed in PA….That will probably start spreading to other states….The message is clear…..stay home, go out as little as possible, and be safe………Of course when the time is right we will happily resume our Live Face Book rendezvous at Chez Dell’Olio………..Until then I will post lots of pics to make you all happy. If you are going to have to be home we will all have to find ways to entertain each other. Feel free to use my website to share interesting stories or updates on this dreadful virus. My doctor already told me to drink lots of fluids, not COLD. and to drink lots of HOT tea. It will kill anything in the throat before it reaches the lungs…….TAKE DEEP BREATHS and hold it. If you don’t start with dry coughing your lungs are probably clear………………………Be safe everyone……………Lots of Love………………………..Louis

…………………….A heads up……browsing the Linea jewelry site I saw that the Maasai necklace and earring are avail. These must be returns as these pieces were not reordered and will never be reordered. They are collectors items and can be sold on e-bay for more money. Since they will never be reordered or reduced in price and there are very few to sell….if you ever wanted them now is the time. With spring and summer right around the corner timing couldn’t be better…………………enjoy……………..much Love…………………………Louis

…………………….It may not be official yet…..but SPRING arrived in blooming color at our house…….42….count them….42 POTS OF PANSIES HAVE BEEN PLANTED….whew! My back porch is a sea of pansies…….and rows and rows of DAFFODILS are already half way grown, and it’s only mid March! It was such a beautiful day after a morning of torrential rain. The sky cleared, the sun came out and dried all the brick….It was the perfect time to PLANT……………..Now it’s all done…………and I know JAC IS HAPPY……..Nothing made her happier than Pansy planting day, and to take a step back after it was complete and take all of the beauty in………..It’s always a happy and sad time for me…..I wish with all of my heart she was here with me to enjoy her pansies………………………………..I like to believe she is
