From Louis

………………………The BIG DEAL jacket will be avail in LODEN. It is the same color as the Loden Trench coat, so it will coordinate with all of your Loden and moss pieces. I’ve chosen to do the WK Mock Neck in the MOSS which is lighter in color than the Loden. The two together have a nice tonal effect. The Mock Neck also works perfectly with your Moss plaid blazers. I know many of you were asking for a WK sweater that could work, and this does beautifully…………….Your OLIVE Carnival necklace and your Chatelaine necklace and brooch add just the right touch…………………

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

……………………………What makes this BLACK JACKET SPECIAL?…………..FAUX SUEDE! Whether you wear it with the matching WK short sleeve mock neck sweater and black pants [maybe you own the WK black pant, or skirt]…..or glam it up with ivory pants, and maybe an ivory WK tank……you simply can not look better! There is just nothing as sophisticated or elegant as a woman dressed simple in BLACK and IVORY!……….Add the MIDAS necklace in GOLD & BLACK to add some Linea glamour………………….enjoy………………….much Love……………………….Louis

…………..”Should auld acquaintance be forgot, and never brought to mind?…….Should auld acquaintance be forgot, and auld lang syne?………..We’ll tak a cup o kindness yet, for auld lang syne”.

How many years have we sung this song on New Years? I’ve always found it to be a some what melancholy song. “Should auld acquaintance be forgot?”….”Auld lang syne” [time goes by]….. and “we’ll tak a cup o kindness yet”, saluting friends, and remembering the good times of the past, and the friendships we have made that have come and gone….and most of all to be kind………2020 holds the promise of the future, and the good things that may come, but we also have to brace ourselves to face and deal with the times that are challenging……and pray that we can meet those challenges with grace and courage……..I guess I am feeling nostalgic for places and friends from the past who have come into my life and have given me so much joy, only to have had to go, and leave me with my memories…. wonderful memories………..The older I get I can’t help but have a heavy heart when thinking of all the beautiful people who have meant  so much to me, and are no longer with me……………….I also wonder about the many Linea Ladies who have been such shining lights, and strong voices over the last twenty years, and are not heard from anymore. They are in my thoughts, and I thank them for their friendship……I hope they are all well!………..I drink a cup of kindness to all of you, and pray 2020 will bring you all joy, and the courage to face whatever may come your way………………much Love………………..Louis

…………………………….The MIDAS NECKLACE, J485288, and the MIDAS CUFF, J485286, were developed to go with my new BIG DEAL JACKETS, but they are so versatile they will work with anything. The NECKLACE has multi strands of small GOLD BUGLE BEADS interspersed with round beads, in this case TIGER EYE BEADS. QVC calls it Tortoise, but it is Tiger Eye. As with all Tiger Eye the color of each bead varies with its’ golden brown colors. The necklace and cuff are as light as a feather. All of the strands are connected at the back and fit into a golden cap. There is a Lobster Claw closing with an extender chain. so you can adjust it for different necklines……..The cuff is a series of bugle bead rings again, decorated with Tiger Eye beads. All of the rings are connected to bars in the back with little dingle dangles hanging from the bars….just for fun. The cuff is very flexible so it is easy to get on and off. Again, it too is very light weight. I have chosen the “Classic Hoop Earring” to coordinate with the necklace. These are wonderful easy to wear, go with everything hoops, and are very comfortable in both pierced and clip versions……….Season-less jewelry is always a great investment……………………enjoy……………………..much Love……………………..Louis

……………………..GOLD & BLACK is my absolute favorite color combination……and mixed with white or ivory is the chicest and most sophisticated thing you could possibly wear!!!!!Without a doubt….So if you really want to make an impression put this combination together in a variety of ways….Ivory blazer over all black or ivory top and black bottom or black top and ivory bottom. You can do this with shirts and pants, and cardigan sets in black over white jeans. Any combination you conjure up will work….it’s full proof!……Here you have the new MIDAS NECKLACE in the GOLD bugle bead & BLACK bead combination. The cuff also is avail. in this glorious combination, and can be mixed with so much of what you own….. With the Midas necklace I have the new WK Mock Neck, A374704, and the IVORY PANT, A351460, for reg. and A351462 for petite. These are one of my all time favorite languid pants with pockets!…..and the reg. size has EIGHT REVIEWS and ALL are FIVE STARS!…………Who doesn’t want to be the chicest woman in the room when it can be so effortless!……………….enjoy……………………..much Love…………………………Louis
