From Louis

……………………….OLIVE is a color I keep going back to time after time. I think it’s the perfect neutral AND accent color. I’m a sucker for anything that has SAFARI or MILITARY colors, and all olive shades are perfect……….The SAND of the DESERT, and the PALMS of an OASIS are so natural and pleasing together, as in the crinkle georgette safari shirt and lace pant…..Add a little spice like the SANGRIA CREPE GAUZE TUNIC with the straw and olive crepe gauze pieces, and the Olive Necklace pulls it all together. The CRINKLE GEORGETTE SHIRT with the DILL Lace pant takes the pant from being dressy to something much more casual….add the necklace and you are ready for a dinner in some Moroccan hideaway…….Again, this is a wonderful necklace for prints. They balance well together…Sometimes you want the accessories to meld, and sometimes you want them to stand out…..It’s all an eye game……………………enjoy……………………..much Love…………………………Louis

……………………………………The beauty of the chiseled beads combined with the smooth barrel beads, and the Brass Ox metal beads, both fluted and bead detailed, held together by the perfect chain are all the subtle details that go into making this glorious BERBER NECKLACE…………………….enjoy……………………………much Love………………………………Louis

…………………………..BLUE and SILVER OX is the third combination this Berber necklace will be avail in. Blue is a color you rarely see in Berber pieces, because there are few natural materials that are avail in a blue color. They use a lot of amber, turquoise, coral, glass, shell and enamel…..anything they can find to use in their one of a kind pieces. They will sometimes dye beads to achieve different colors. I sometimes wonder if they use the same dye that the “BLUE PEOPLE” use to dye their clothing….similar to my SAPPHIRE. It also dyes their skin blue……..The Blue People are descendants of the Berber’s, but are very independent, and also live in North Africa………They are incredibly beautiful…………………………enjoy………………………..much Love…………………………..Louis

…………………………This year I am bringing back the TIGER LILY PRINT SHIRT, A302607, and SCARF, A302608 in a new color……………..MIDNIGHT………………It has all the same colors as the originals, but this time the ground is BLACK and a SMOKEY GREY giving the look of an EXOTIC and MYSTERIOUS GARDEN…………….I chose to use a black tank and my SLIM BLACK PANT, A265615 to finish the look, which is a great back ground for the vivid colors, but any accent color will look great….even all white…….For those of you who are new to this elongated shirt it has a classic shirt collar, and a button front. It has very high side slits, for a very flowing effect….The sleeve is 3/4 length with a flared bottom, but not very exaggerated……just enough to add a little femininity. The back has a stitched down box pleat to add a lovely flow and ease…….The fabric is new also. It has a wonderful pebble surface and a very soft drappy hand…….The necklace is my new BLACK BUGLE BEAD with  twist beads……………….enjoy…………………….much Love………………………….Louis

…………………I was so happy when I heard this print SHIRT and SCARF was going to be reordered. It’s such a versatile wearable print….You would think because it is a print there would be limited ways to wear it, but not so. Wear it as a shirt over many bottoms from jeans to leggings, biker shorts, Capri pants etc. For a dressier look wear it with a pencil skirt, and try belting it. It also makes a great beach cover up. The HUGE scarf also makes the perfect beach cover up. you can wear it as a top, a skirt and a dress you just have to play with it. The MARDI GRAS necklace is returning and is the perfect necklace to wear with these prints…..Spring is almost here, and it’s always summer in Florida!…………………………..enjoy………………………..much Love……………………….Louis
