Palm Jewelry29

The PEASANT BLOUSE, A254442, is another of the new items that will be on May 5th’s PM Style show…..the color……………………GERANIUM PINK…..and it is a wonderful FLATTERING color. The blouse is made in my POLY CREPE DE CHINE which I have used many times before….the pleated skirt in white, black and bamboo, the Ikat print skirt and top, the tunic shirt in Lapis, yellow and pink….to name a few….were all made in this fabric. Classic “peasant blouse” details…….the banded scoop neckline with shirring, the elastic cuff, side slits and dyed to match buttons down the front are all to be found on this garment. It also has raglan 3/4 sleeves and is approx 29 inches long for the xs. There is also a SELF TIE BELT that comes with the blouse, but it also looks great loose. Above, I have paired the blouse with my cotton summer shorts in black…It’s a natural with a pair of espadrilles, but with a pair of black strappy high heeled sandals….it becomes a wonderful evening look for just the right occasion……There are so many things you can wear this top with…..all of the BOHO SKIRTS….the RAYON/SPAN MAXI SKIRTS….LEGGINGS…..A SIMPLE PENCIL SKIRT…….I also love this silhouette worn under jackets for a somewhat alluring, feminine look……I like the top button worn open, and maybe some of the bottom buttons too…..The blouse is the perfect back drop for my new PALM FROND jewelry….shown here in ALL GOLD!…………………………………..enjoy……………………….much Love…………………………………….Louis

……………..The BLACK PEASANT BLOUSE is featured with…..A NEW IKAT PRINT SKIRT, A254309, which will be on my May 16th show at 4:00pm……It is in the Geranium Pink and Black combination,but more about that latter……………….BLACK & WHITE in the summer can not be beat…..If you own the new Black& White linen pieces this is the perfect compliment to them. Any white bottom will work, but don’t discount other neutral or fashion colors too……Worn over my AQUA JEANS with an American Indian belt and jewelry, or any belt would look outrageously beautiful…….again over any of the boho skirt colors…from white to black and all the colors in between will be a perfect summer outfit……. This blouse is an EASY fit…..BUY your normal size. If you read the bust measurements and think they are bigger than normal….that is due to the shirring….it’s not too big…..There is no stretch to this material. If you understand what a peasant blouse should look like than the measurements will not be surprising…………Shown here are my BRASS AND BEAD NECKLACES, J278125, and EARRING, J278127……………………………………………………………………………..enjoy…………….much Love…………………………Louis

I should always have Jac check my posts! Sorry for the “pairs” instead of the “pears”…..I corrected it on my post, but it’s spelled wrong on the Linea Forum, so I’ve been told……It’s a good thing I can draw!!!

“THE BLACK DRESS”

ivory blazer11

……………………..”THE BLACK DRESS”…..or to be specific…………The “LBD”……….A254318……….This dress will be first presented on MAY 5th, during PM Style. It is made in my RAYON/SPAN fabric. I say my rayon/span, because this is the particular quality of rayon/span I always use. I am not aware of anyone else on QVC using this specific quality….This is a superior fabric because  fine yarns are used to achieve this weight which equates to a smoother, and more costly fabric………..The dress has a FIT & FLARE” shape which  is created through the use of princess seams, and a slightly empire seam to give a nice torso shaping and flow to the skirt…..It has a COWL NECKLINE, but not overly draped, just enough to create a nice soft neckline which can still accommodate long necklaces beautifully. I would think this would be a good dress for all of my “pears” and probably my “apples” too…I would recommend ordering you normal Linea size since I am not aware of it running large or small, but always check your click here measurements….For me, the sweep of the skirt is perfectly balanced, not too much and not too little………..The LENGTH OF THE DRESS is approx. 40″ to 40 1/2″ ……….This is really an all purpose dress…..an all or no occasion dress………Worn with a jacket, shrug or cardigan, you can wear it to work or a night out…..a wedding….graduation….anywhere…………A great TRAVEL DRESS?….YES…..packable and machine washable. A FOUR SEASONS DRESS?…..YES……Wear it now in the spring and throughout the summer with a pointed toe black patent sling back heel………………come fall…….a black sheer hose…yes I said sheer……….an opaque………or even a “FANCY’….maybe it’s time for you to experiment………just for the fun of it!……..I saw three young girls the other day wearing short shorts and all were in fancy hose……fashion does trickle up from the streets to main stream….it’s definitely happening………….When OLD MAN WINTER comes back, and we know he will………get out the black opaque tights and beautiful suede or calf boots……………There really is no end to the ways you can wear and accessorize this dress……I have chosen two strands of my J284043, gray glass faceted bead, 72 inch necklace with the J284042 matching drop earring…..The gray is the only color this necklace is still avail in, but I’m sure not for long……….a heads up…..there will be  GRAY FOR FALL, and this necklace is going to be “KEY” to finishing the look……………………………….scroll down………………………………………..enjoy………………………much Love………………………………….Louis
