………………..The ALABASTER leather jacket, A297864, is the second color being offered in this new LAMB leather jacket. EVERYTHING you may own or intend to buy in Alabaster, like the short sleeve WK sweater above, A267882, will either match or blend nicely with the leather and knit. For a column of color the Slim Ponte pant and the Super Ponte Boot cut pant to come, are both terrific alternatives!……This is a luxurious color especially in the Lamb leather. The factory did a fantastic job of matching the leather and knit and it is made beautifully. The one thing about Alabaster is it looks great with any color. Navy, black, grey, wine, blackberry, Port, olive bottoms etc. etc. all look great with Alabaster. Pop a color like fuchsia with black pants, burnt orange with gray pants and all will look fantastic for Fall/winter. Of course all Alabaster from head to toe is the ultimate, and makes the perfect Spring outfit…….Even the new ALABASTER FLORAL print blouse worn with the jacket and a color pant of your choosing will make this a season-less look……..It time to play mixing and matching……The Spirit necklace in Desert Sand is all you need for a simple accessory, but you can jazz it up with so much more…..Perhaps you were lucky enough to get the Alabaster FACETED BEADS, or the Aztec necklace in Alabaster for a more dramatic look………………This is definitely a head turner!………………………….enjoy………………………much Love……………………………Louis

……………………..A WINE leather jacket has been requested by many of you….even Mary Beth Roe made me promise my next leather jacket would come in wine! It looks great with the Wine Super Ponte BC pant, A268216, and I used the Aubergine TN from a few seasons back to create a column of color. It’s not a match but blends perfectly. The new WINE WK Midi Dress looks fantastic with the jacket, and the INDIA pendant is the perfect accessory. It isn’t bulky around the neck and can be worn at different lengths. It looks very exotic and unique with the dress and jacket. The Perfectly Pink Spirit necklace is also a great option with this jacket…..As for adding color….all you have to do is PLAY, and don’t let yourself say no too quickly! Try the unexpected and surprise yourself…..Remember how fabulous the Green Patina looks on the WINE…….And so will the Alabaster floral shirt or the Abstract print top in Sienna………….enjoy……much Love………….Louis

……………………….A good jewelry wardrobe is about balance……and with the right balance comes variety. You should have statement pieces that are BOLD and DARING, and can be seen when you walk into a room……….You should also have pieces that are DELICATE and FEMININE, and whisper rather then speak loudly. One is just as important as the other……………The FLOWER and CRACKLE BEAD necklace and earring set, J350152, is both delicate and feminine…….The metal flowers, the bead separators, and the chain are all in an antique Brass color. This gives the necklace an antique estate look. Even the separator beads are special.  Up close they look like they are made of tiny little brass rings……….The resin beads come in different shapes and sizes. They are translucent, and have the look of CRACKLED ICE…….The Crackle beads come in two colors on each necklace…….On this necklace the colors are CLEAR, and  PINK MIST……….The necklace measures 54 inches from the Lobster Claw to the first ring. It also has a three inch extender………The earring measures approx 2 1/8th inch from the bottom of the lever back to the bottom of the earring…..The resin crackle bead will always be the color…..in this case the Pink Mist……….This necklace looks wonderful worn at its’ full length and equally fabulous…. doubled. When it is doubled I like how it falls some what haphazardly……….I have shown the necklace on the Perfectly Pink short sleeve WK ENR essential sweater, but please do not limit it to wearing with pink only! It looks wonderful as an accent on many other colors…….Did I mention that this is a necklace from my archives? I created this exact necklace for my Anne Klein Couture Jewelry line many years ago, and it is still a beauty!……………………………enjoy………….much Love……………………Louis

………………………..AQUA MIST…………..is the second color avail. Again, the metal is Antique Brass. The resin crackle beads are in CLEAR and the AQUA MIST. I have shown the necklace above, with the Celadon Sleeveless TN and the Swing WK TN……………The Aqua necklace works equally well on both colors. It’s a wonderful accent color on many other colors like Desert Sand and any Taupe………..It also looks pretty on other pale colors like Buttercup…………………………….enjoy…………..much Love………………..Louis

……………………………….LILAC MIST is the last color avail. in the necklace and earring set……………This is not an easy color to find in the Fashion jewelry world, and is usually found in semi precious or precious stones that can be very costly………What I love about these resin beads in these colors is they are just a tint…..enough to see the color, but still maintain that fragile look…….When they are worn against a fabric they become a little more intense, but still delicate………………………………………enjoy……………….much Love………………………….Louis
