……………………Okay…..I was able to pick one other color to bring to you……Can you believe….one color out of all the colors in the world!………My head was spinning!!………….I chose this LUSCIOUS, DEEP, RICH……………….MAGENTA…………………..Wear it with GOLD….wear it with SILVER…..wear it with GUNMETAL……heck…..even CHOCOLATE looks fabulous on this MAGENTA. The TRIPLE BAR NECKLACE is hanging on its’ longest length, so it is significantly shorter than the SINGLE BAR NECKLACE…….coming soon…………………I’ve already told you what and how you can wear this sweater….with EVERYTHING. I can even see this Magenta worn with a wonderful BoHo Chic long printed peasant skirt in rich deep colors with boots naturally…….there is no limit……………………………………………

………………………………September is here, and Fall is officially about to begin, and I can think of a better way to start than with this light weight zip front jacket, A267878……This is not just any quilted jacket….this is a quilted jacket done the LINEA way…………………There are many details to this jacket that aren’t easy to see, so you may have to click on the picture twice to BLOW IT UP for a better look. The jacket is SUPER LIGHT WEIGHT, so it is the ideal jacket for my southern ladies for the entire winter, and definitely for those with milder climates……..The fabrication of this jacket is a combination of QUILTED POLYESTER with WHISPER KNIT SLEEVES, RIBBED COLLAR, and the entire BACK.  The front panels are DIAMOND quilted, and the side panels and top yoke are VERTICALLY CHANNEL quilted for a more stream line look. The quilting is very light so there is no bulk……The jacket has princess seams which create a gentle shape that glides over the body. This is NOT a BOXY PUFFER jacket…..There are INSEAM POCKETS. The zipper is a one way zipper and is also a nylon zipper, so the tape and teeth are all dyed to match in the ……ALABASTER color…It really looks wonderful all dyed to match….so chose your own accessory color….The collar is made in a WHISPER KNIT 2×2 rib, so it gently hugs the neck without being tight in any way!……The sleeves and the back are done in the JERSEY WHISPER KNIT STITCH and have 2×2 rib starts………..I really want to emphasize the fact that this is FEATHER WEIGHT. You will be very surprised how weightless it is when you take it out of the fabulous shipping package it will inevitably be shipped to you in. It is so light weight that you northerners will be able to wear it as an indoor jacket…….that has a little EDGE…When it’s bitter cold just add a coat, scarf, beret and gloves….It will give you that added layer of protection…..Wear it dressed up or down. It is certainly elegant enough to wear both ways…. This jacket is NUMERICALLY SIZED. It is not fitted. It has an easy shaping, and with the Whisper Knit sleeves and back it is unbelievably COMFORTABLY. There is no need, IMHO, to size up or down. Due to the WK there is plenty of STRETCH…..Jac did try on the size 6, which is her normal B&M size and she felt it was a little roomy, but that’s how she would want a jacket to fit. With a WK sweater you should be fine….With a long sleeve sweater you will definitely be fine. With numerical sizes they should be more accurate to your needs………….The size 6 is approximately 26 inches long……and for me…in this Alabaster color…. it is the perfect length. The care instructions say to turn the garment inside out and machine wash in cold water. I would guess the same method you use in washing you WK sweaters………..In the photo above I have simply layer the jacket with the Alabaster s/s WK sweater, A267882…..the sweater is also avail in BLACK, and it is a MUST HAVE ESSENTIAL in the new med. weight WK….On the bottom……my Black MOSS CREPE SKIRT, A262454. I also have it with my Black WK pant, but I have a new quality SUPER PONTE pant in a modified BOOT CUT coming in OCT that will work beautifully too……As I look at my sketch I have to say my manufacturer captured it perfectly. The only change we made, after seeing the first sample, was changing the knit from a Milano stitch to a jersey. The Milano wasn’t right with the softness and lightness of the jacket…….trial and error….that’s what designing is about…..There are zillions of quilted jackets out there avail to you, but I promise, none are quite like this……..Happy Fall………………,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,…..enjoy…………………..much Love…………………Louis

……………………………BLACK…..BLACK…..BLACK…..is the second and final color being offered in this jacket….so with only two choices I’ve saved you from racking your brains over which color to buy………or have I????………….The Black quilted jacket is very DOWN TOWN CHIC with my BLACK slim pant…..a Black TN, and one of my Bar necklaces or the new Lariat. Many of you, who LUV this pant, have  asked if it was coming back, and I said I didn’t think so……well I was wrong! It has been reordered for next April. Black will be returning with two new colors. Don’t bother to ask me what the colors will be, because I submitted four for them for the buyers to choose the two from, so I don’t know  their choice and don’t want to say until it’s definite. I know that this pant worked for many of you, and thought it was absolutely the best fit and fabric, some were not as successful, but that’s always the way it is with a pant…..especially a slim ankle pant. As it turns out the returns were much less than I had anticipated, and the reviews were stellar. For those of you who loved it ….rejoice………………….Back to the jacket……Down Town Chic…….UP TOWN SOPHISTICATE…….Wear it over your LBD, or sweater and skirt…. patterned tights like the all over lace or the herringbone…..a shoe boot…..a great bag and your must have black sunglasses……A STATEMENT necklace like the DINGLE DANGLE would be perfection in any color metal you choose……You will look like you just dropped a bundle at Barneys. If this jacket were made for men I’d order it in a flash. With the short sleeve BLACK WK ENR sweater and a black bottom you are BIG CITY ready. For areas of the country where wearing all black is a sure sign of a tourist….probably a New Yorker…….adding color or pale neutrals with probably suit you better. How chic would it look over a white Tee or TN and white jeans……that would even work in NYC….big time. You know and I know there are a zillion ways you can pull outfits together and pop this light weight jacket on top. As I sit typing this message, a chilly breeze is blowing through my window………………..Fall is right around the corner, and I for one welcome it…………………………….enjoy………………………….much Love……………………………….Louis

…………………………….THE SINGLE BAR “Y”  NECKLACE….is style number….J325471………….Some of you may have seen the models wearing my new Single Bar “Y” Necklace on my last shows so I thought you would want to get a closer look. It will be avail., as the Triple Bar necklace, in my four key metal colors………..GOLD…………….SILVER……………..GUNMETAL…………..CHOCOLATE. Of the two styles this is the longest and really looks great on tunics and dresses, so there is a definite reason why both would be important…….The short one and a long one serve two different purposes. I can’t begin to tell you how wonderful the quality of this piece is…….The precision of the edges and the high polish of the top cube and the hanging bar make all the difference. It has enough weight to hang beautifully and feel expensive…….The chain from which it hangs is just the right balance with the piece. I know you will be enjoying these for years to come, because of their timeless beauty. This is an elegant, modern classic that will never look dated as so many of the popular pieces today will………This would make a beautiful gift or anyone of any age……..With the Lariat, and the Triple Bar and Single Bar necklaces…..you will have the right accessory for all of your more casual needs and much much more. These will be the final pieces of the fall /winter season………..so………………………..enjoy………………………much Love………………………………Louis

………………………………………..Another look of the Single Bar Y Necklace on the form with a T neck and pants so you can get a feeling of size and proportion………..Seen in the pictures above….from left to right………..the Chocolate……the Gold…….and the Silver……….so many choices……….so many decisions…………………….enjoy………………much Love……………………..Louis
