Milano8

…………………………..Last in the line up of colors being offered in this new Hoodie is the………….SLATE BLUE………….which brings us back to NEUTRALS………………………..Slate Blue is a blue with gray added. I always call these colors………..MOODY……….in this case your Moody BLUE………………Again, I have chosen NAVY and SILVER as the accents to this color…………..To add some freshness I have also chosen the PALE BLUE WK TN, A72448, to layer under it…………I have often seen women of all ages wearing this color TN at Ski Resorts…….and it always unfailingly looks FLATTERING, FRESH and YOUTHFULL. The perfect compliment to your “moody Blue”……………………………………enjoy……………………………much Love…………………………Louis

*****THE WHISPER KNIT TANK & SWING CARDIGAN*****

bootcut9 bootcut8 bootcut11 bootcut10

…………………………….Two very popular Whisper Knit styles are the A237404, TANK….and A267864, the SWING CARDIGAN……I have been offering this tank for many years in a variety of colors……the newest being the colors that coordinate with the new Whisper Knit Swing Cardigan, RASPBERRY, MARINE BLUE and HEATHER CHARCOAL GREY……………The HEATHER CHARCOAL GREY is a new color that I have introduced in Whisper Knit, and it is very important because it is the FIRST HEATHER COLOR……….The grey coordinates very well with the HEATHER GREY PONTE BOOT CUT PANT, A268216, which has been reordered……All together it’s a wonderful CHIC column of sophisticated color….A HEADS UP…..coming next fall will be the WK PENCIL SKIRT, A253411, in the new Heather Charcoal Grey, so the matching TANK will become even more important as a layering piece…….The tank has not been reordered from last fall so I highly recommend you getting it while it’s still avail. Needless to say,with the matching Swing Cardigan, it makes an incredible SOFT SUIT. For those of you who find black too harsh….Charcoal Grey is a terrific alternative as an essential “basic” dark neutral color……It will become “your” black. Above, from left to right, is the Raspberry, which is sold out, but will be returning. The matching WK SHAWL, A259111……worn together is very sophisticated with a sense of modern glamour………The GOLD NUGGET NECKLACE, J321805, adds the perfect touch…of Renaissance flare……………..MARINE BLUE is a wonderful transition color through each of the seasons, and a bridge from casual to dressy. Add a pair of slim navy pants or jeans to suit the occasion…………The SILVER FALLING LEAVES necklace, J325475, [already sold out in gunmetal], is also the perfect accessory to bridge casual and dressy…………………..BLACK…………..is the UNIVERSAL COLOR…….DAY or NIGHT, casual or dressy, and it is appropriate twelve months of the year. While GOLD is the ultimate “classic” metal……SILVER, as in the Silver Nugget Necklace above, gives the look of modernity that only SILVER can achieve. A heads up…………..the Cardigan will be avail next fall in two NEW COLORS………ALABASTER…..yes Alabaster…..and a new color…………TAUPE……They are already listed, and can be wait listed, however I’m not sure if the delivery date is too far out where they won’t be canceled anyway, but it costs nothing to wait list them just to be careful………….If you haven’y purchased the tank in these important colors I wouldn’t hesitate too long as they are not coming back, and there aren’t any other layering pieces coming in these fashion colors…………………………………………………

**************THE TUXEDO STRIPE TIGHTS*****************

tuxedo

……………………………A270591………is the style number of the Linea Body………TUXEDO TIGHTS…………..I think these would make a fabulous unexpected SURPRISE gift for anyone of any age…..at any time of year! These tights are not quite as opaque as my classic opaque tights, A260016, that are avail in many colors, but they are still considered opaque. I chose this denier so there would be a little more contrast between the tight and the velvet……………The stripe on the tights is a STRETCH VELVET, and how it is done is a trade secret. The contrast between the tights and the velvet is truly superb. There has not been one time that one of the models hasn’t put them on…or one of the hosts has seen them on the models that they don’t all go….WOW. These have become Jac’s new favorites. Last year it was the “Animal Instincts”. These Tuxedo tights are just as unique and  so very special……The colors they are avail in are…..GREY with BLACK velvet, shown above…and…..BLACK with BLACK velvet. They come in your “upscale” hosiery sizes of A, B, C, D, E, F, G. Each size is predicated on weight and height, and there is some overlap. If you buy tights in the stores that have this sizing formula then you should buy the size you have normally purchased. If you are between sizes I would suggest going to the larger size….The A, B, C sizing is used for more expensive hosiery because more sizes are avail. Lesser quality tights use the xs/sm,  med/lg and xl which cuts down on their production, labeling and sorting costs….As I have said before….my Linea Body line is made in the USA by one of the best if not the best hosiery maker in America. He makes all kinds of tights, leggings, socks for many of the high end designers you all know, and the private label for many of the high end stores you all know..He also manufactures many products for foreign designs!…..Unfortunately, I can not name them, but you would be just as impressed as I was. The difference between “their” product and mine is….price, and in many cases I am offering a higher denier [which is better], than some of them, and still they sell their products at a much higher price. One of the reasons he is such an incredible manufacturer are the machines he bought with the factories many years ago. These are specialty machines that can produce things no other machine can. He has the only machines of these kind in the country…They are rare……He’s not even sure if or where they exist in Europe…They do not exist in the Far East……………As I said before these are unique and very special tights. Fair warning…….once these TUXEDO tights are sold out they will not be coming back. My L.B. budget is limited and I want to bring new things in….so I will only offer these “fashion” styles once, and then on to the next………………………………………..enjoy………………………….Happy Holidays………………………………Louis
