…………………I realized I had never posted pictures of the lace top…..there wasn’t enough time……….Some of you heard me say it on air…………”There is lace……and then there IS LACE!”……..I guarantee you this is a very SPECIAL lace and not one where you will see anything else like it. Many laces that are avail to you now all look like a variation of the same thing, and for the most part they are………This, I will say again, is unique and special…….The size of the patter and the depth of texture is like no other……..This was made for ME, and you will not see anything like it anywhere …..Look at the details of the lace alone. See how the hems of the 3/4 sleeve and bottom of the top are created by the intricate pattern of the lace………….Look at the close up pictures and see the dimension of the lace. It really is exquisite. I am constantly being asked by you to give you something special……here it is………………….The style number of the top is, A302605………….There is also a tank that works perfectly with the lace tops. It is made in a light weight jersey, and has lots of stretch making it super comfortable. It is the perfect underpinning for this lace top and all the sheer clothes you may already own. It is finished beautifully with piped armholes and scoop neckline. This is an essential piece to own, and neither the lace top or tank IMHO should be passed over. Some of you have already received these pieces and the reviews are glowing……The Tank style number is, A304658.

………………………..If you are wondering how you can wear this top…..here are a few ideas….from left to right……..ALL WHITE, with the matching tank and my new white jeans, coming next month….Next, wear the lace with my crop Indigo jeans for a more casual look, coming later in the season……………….next up, wear the white lace with all black. I have used the tank, A304658 and my black Super LITE PONTE CROP PANT, A302601 for the reg, and A302610. The reviews have been great both for the fit and new fabric of the pant. If you think these are just another basic crop pant….you would be wrong. The fabric alone elevates then to a higher level. You do not own anything like these……We aren’t finished there. Take out all your color tanks and use them as accent colors. Then choose your bottom color. Wearing a contrast color really shows the lace off….The Turquoise tank above is coming in May……..I have chosen the CANCUN necklace and earring set, J352562, because I love the look of modern jewelry with very feminine lace…..The contrast of the two is marvelous and shows the imagination of the wearer…………………………………………………..

…………………………..BLACK LACE…………….or sometimes referred to as “Midnight Lace”, because of its’ allure…….Wear it with the matching tank, or wear with contrast pieces which I think shows off the lace at its’ best…………….The Fuchsia V-neck tank is the same as the Turquoise  shown under the White lace. This tank in WK, has waist whittling ribs. I  like this tank under the lace, because it shows the body a little bit, and doesn’t fill up the lace with a boxy tank if you know what I mean…………Again, here I’m showing the Cancun necklace and earring set on the right, and the Cozumel set on the left 352562. These are unique pieces that are very special………. I love the juxtaposition  of the classic with the modern……….enjoy………..much Love…………..Louis

…………………………The “first” MAXI DRESS I am offering to you this Spring/Summer season is in the very popular MOSS CREPE. I have learned from all of you that the reasons you all love this fabric are many. You love the weight of the fabric. It isn’t too flimsy, so it doesn’t cling or show any problem areas, but it isn’t heavy either…..It is very easy to take care of, and it doesn’t wrinkle, so it’s great for travel…..It is the perfect knit fabric. The dress has a short sleeve, and a scoop neckline….not very deep, but perfect for showing off your growing collection of Linea Jewelry!…………..It isn’t shiny [I don’t like super shiny knits] so it doesn’t look inexpensive….The dress has a nice sweep at the bottom…..not too much, but enough to walk easily…..ISLAND FUCHSIA, is the color above……..The Island of Anguilla is a continuing source of inspiration………The colors are vivid in my memory, and this beautiful color reminds me of so many of the flowers Jac and I used to marvel over……………..I have used the PINSTRIPE SHIRT with the HIGH/LOW FLOUNCE SLEEVE in PINK, A302602, as a shirt jacket. The fabric is so light and cool that it make a perfect cover up. Those of you who have ordered this beautiful blouse know exactly what I mean. Those of you who passed might want to give it another look……The colors are so fresh and clean, and it is great fun, and light hearted……………………If you missed out on the BEACH GLASS NECKLACE SET, J352731, in the Pink don’t feel badly. The new “CARNIVAL NECKLACE”, J354006, in PASSION FRUIT, shown above, will be avail in MAY. I used the Gold Hammered hoop from the Scythe necklace set, but many gold earrings will work………..The dress will be sized XXS to 3X. There is also a back seam if for some reason you would like to take it in for more shape, but I have to say, I think it’s perfect the way it is. It just glides over the body……Always check the “click here” measurements to be sure. Remember Moss Crepe has a lot of stretch…………..The MAXI DRESS will be avail in TWO lengths………A302606 is the style # for the regular length, and A302939 is the style # for the petite length………………..Dresses make DRESSING so easy! Slip them on with a pair of flip-flops for super casual dressing……..wear a pair of sandals, wedges or espadrilles for a more casual/ dressier look appropriate for work or going out. High Heel sandals will give you an even dressier look……Of course the accessories you choose to go with your footwear will put an exclamation mark on the statement you want to make!…………………………………………………………………..

……………………………….The second color being offered is………………..DARK CHOCOLATE………….a deep rich saturated brown. I have always loved dark rich browns in the summer…..All metal colors look great with Dk. Chocolate…..including the newest COPPER and CHOCOLATE……I am exploring WOOD as a source of inspiration for my jewelry, and the YOSEMITE necklaces shown above are just one of the choices that will be offered in the coming months. It is a carved piece of wood with a SILVER PLAQUE applied to the wood. It hangs from a SILVER chain, and has small SILVER BEADS spaced on the chain. It will be avail in two lengths. J353998, will be the shorter length at 19″ plus a 3″ extender. The J353999, is longer at 35″ with a 3″ extender. Personally, I do like them worn together, but I realize most of you will wear them separately……….However, BOTH lengths serve a purpose, or I wouldn’t be offering them………….I am using the SILVER drop earring from the Cancun Necklace, J352563, a great go with everything earring…………………………enjoy…………………..much Love…………………………Louis

……………………ADMIRAL BLUE isn’t quite like any other blue I have done………it glows………………The POMPEII NECKLACE in BLUE, J352559, is too perfect for words. I think this is a wonderful way to look this summer. All you need is a pair of gold metallic sandals like the Gentle Souls flat strappy lace up sandal, A291806, to complete the look perfectly!……………………………………………….
