From Louis

………….I think GUNMETAL is a must have color in everyone jewelry wardrobes. It is quieter and more subtle than SILVER or GOLD…..but it speaks LOUDLY about the wearer…..A woman who is an unconventional thinker and lives outside of the box……How often do you see women wearing GUNMETAL jewelry?………………….exactly my point!…..Again I apologize for the dark pictures, but with the flash you couldn’t tell the silver from the gunmetal….and there is a distinct difference. The added pieces to the mix are the 72 inch hand knotted pearl necklace in the dark gray, and the TRIPLE STRAND LIGHTER GRAY PEARL NECKLACE with the GUNMETAL SPACER BEADS, J296624, and the BAROQUE OVAL PEARL EARRING in the matching GRAY, J296890…………..Also, in the bottom two right pictures is the NEW FACETED JET DROP & BLACK DIAMOND PAVE CRYSTALS…..It is truly stunning…..This earring is avail.PIERCED only. I love gunmetal on all shades of gray clothing, which is to be expected, but it gives pastel clothing a whole new attitude and saves them from bring cloyingly sweet. It also look fabulous on your pumpkin, sienna, clay, olive, petrol blue and royal purple colors……actually it looks great on everything…..you just have to TRY!……………………………………………………………..Happy Holidays……….much Love……………….Louis

*************************ANIMAL INSTINCTS***************** the tights above, A260020, may be the most forward looking tights of the season. Even though they are called “Animal Instincts” there really isn’t a distinct animal pattern….no Leopard spots or Zebra stripes, nothing BOLD or distracting……….The pattern is a play of MATTE and SHINY yarns. On the leg the pattern is subtle……Since the GREY HEATHER tights are completely sold out, and the BLACK TIGHTS are sold out in many sizes and the quantity left is very very limited [only size “A” in the two pack], I think these might be the perfect answer. The Animal Instinct tights are made in the same yarn as the solid opaque tights with the shine yarn added. Where ever you would wear solid black opaque tights….these can easily be substituted…..same for the GREY. I have noticed Jac has been wearing these tights more than the solid opaque, and when I asked her why she simply said, “because I really like them…..they look and feel good”. Good enough reason for me. If you own anything in the STONE COLOR…..you really should get the ANIMAL INSTINCTS in the STONE. It is just too good to pass up. If ever I offered an EXPENSIVE CUSTOM DESIGNER LOOK…..it is the STONE WK sweater and matching WK SKIRT with the STONE TIGHTS…..Even worn with a BLACK WK skirt and a STONE WK sweater is a great way to go…………………These would make very special Christmas gifts to special girlfriends, daughters and nieces…..even to the your beautician who you see on a regular basis…..they are far from ordinary and a special present……They are ageless and very of the moment. The fact that they are not in any other store, and can only be purchased on QVC makes them very exclusive. There are 16 reviews on the LINEA BODY site, and 16 out of 16 women would recommend them to a friend. I would say that’s a pretty good testimonial!…………… I promise if you try one pair….you’ll come back for more…………………….. ………………………………………………………..enjoy………………….much Love………………………..Louis

**********J284043*********** is finally back in inventory. This is the 72 inch, FACETED GLASS BEAD NECKLACE………this necklace has 27 reviews….ALL FIVE STAR!…..I know many of you were sorry you never ordered this necklace when it was first introduced or missed a color you were hesitant about, and then it sold out in ALL colors. Now is your chance to have what you want…. The quality of the DOUBLE FIRED GLASS BEADS is exceptional….there is nothing plastic looking about these wonderful necklaces. The three colors that are now avail are the……BLACK……CLEAR…..BRONZE…….You all know I LOVE them DOUBLED for a totally LUXE look…..but that’s up to you……….There is no need to explain the importance of beautiful BLACK JET BEADS, however, I love them worn DAY or NIGHT. On bright colors like the NUTMEG or PETROL BLUE they look wonderful…..on WINTER WHITE…..CLASSIC…..for EVENING a must have…..there is nothing quite like BLACK JET BEADS on BLACK SEQUINS or BLACK LACE…………………..The CLEAR look like ICE CRYSTALS, and a marvelous way to dress up your WINTER WHITES…pastel winter tweeds a la Chanel…. or black and white tweeds. Don’t be afraid to mix your jets and clear beads….the effect is fabulous…….Come Spring /Summer…….their sparkle picks up all the colors of what you are wearing…….from pastels like Perfectly Pink…..to Lime and Turquoise……………….The BRONZE is a sleeper color and is very important. It looks marvelous on all of your typical fall colors like clay, sienna, nutmeg, all browns…..but when you put it on unexpected colors like purples, olives, all deep rich blues from Navy to Petrol….on BLACK…..fantastic…..worn with any of these colors is when the BRONZE really comes alive……mix it with your CHOCOLATE metal earrings to finish the look. There will be DEMI Hoops in Chocolate coming…………Ladies it took almost a year to get these back to you……don’t let them slip through your fingers again……..and what a gorgeous Christmas present these will make!……………………enjoy……………………..much Love…………………………………Louis

I got the word…..the jacket would have to be $14 more in Winter White, so a reorder price can not be changed…..therefore….no winter white…..Other color suggestions please…..so far some sort of gray or brown seem to be the leaders. Id also love red, but we already have the brick so they won’t buy two colors so close…..I am loving the idea of a color like Royal Purple from the WK or Petrol Blue….Magenta????? I would also love Taxi Cab yellow or antique Rose….deeper than the Pink coat, but I don’t think I would sell many…….anyone like any of those????

You Ladies are the absolute BEST!!!! I so appreciate you quick responses to my question about the e-mails. I don’t need any more. What you have said has given me a very clear picture. I am getting to the bottom of this with the “E-Team” at QVC. I have found out at the moment there is no direct e-mail to the Linea Lady about Linea products. When you sign up for e-mails [the subscription info is at the very bottom of the first Linea page], what you will get  is almost every e-mail they send out about EVERYTHING! I will ask if there is a way to make it more personal and have Linea Ladies sign up for Linea info and only Linea info. If you want e-mails about other vendors you would have to sign up for each….this way you won’t get e-mails about “flashlights” if you don’t want them….LOL, but this is just my idea, and a discussion I will have, and I don’t know if it’s even possible………………………On another note……thank you again for your quick responses about new colors for the swing jacket. Other than the Winter White I’m not getting an overwhelming direction for any one color. The W. White, my suggestion, might be a problem. My manufacturer is looking into it. They believe there may be a surcharge for White, which is often the case because the mill has to cover for fabric they can not ship due to damages and flyers [black threads woven into the fabric by accident]…..White is really tough to make especially in wool blends. QVC will not charge two prices for one jacket, white being a higher price so that may cancel white out…..fingers crossed….it would be wonderful with gun metal buttons.
