………………………………….J357121…………..is the style number of the new BOLO/LARIAT & EARRING SET……..This is a VERY MODERN NECKLACE with an EDGE…….This is not for everyone which is the way it should be. I think you will know immediately whether this is for you or not…….This is a piece you might find in a very upscale store, or boutique, where they have a certain taste level that appeals to a certain customer………………There are cords and fine chains that pass through the very ORGANIC SLIDE. The shape and finish adds to the western feel of the piece.  The larger beads are made from copper coated resin….the same material at the Cozumel and Cancun necklaces………You can slide the cords and chains through the Y shaped slide to adjust where you want it to sit. For instance, if you are wearing the Kate shirt you may want the slide right under the collar by the stand……..The earring is a combination of the small bead and the larger bead with a lever back. It is very light in weight and very wearable……….This is certainly a necklace you will never see anywhere else, as it was born out of my imagination…………I hope you enjoy……………much Love……………………Louis

……………………COPPER OX…..is becoming one of my favorite metal colors. The warmth and glow is truly beautiful and special. It’s like a deeper, richer rose gold. If you haven’t purchased anything in the “exotic” metal colors this may be an excellent place to start…….You have the perfect combination of an edgy, modern necklace in an exotic metal…..an eye catcher indeed!

…………………………..enjoy………………….much Love………………………Louis

………………………GOLD….especially RUSSIAN GOLD……is my favorite metal color, I am torn which of these necklaces is my favorite! I love the cool, steely, modern, edginess of the SILVER, but I also love the warmth and soft feminine glow of the COPPER.  Being a LEO, I certainly can’t turn my back on the RUSSIAN GOLD…..The best thing is…..I don’t have to choose….just admire!……………………enjoy………………….much Love……………………….Louis

…………………………This “BIG DEAL” sweater will be presented on August 21st at 9:00pm on QVC2. The style number is ………A343152……….. This is a Whisper Knit sweater in a JERSEY STITCH which makes it a lighter sweater. The jersey fabric is lighter in weight than the Every Needle Rib. You may recall, and I’m sure many of you still have, the cotton/acrylic sweater I did quite a few years ago with the bell embroidered sleeve. The emb. on that sweater was similar to the baseball jacket with big cabbage roses. This newer version, which many of you requested I bring back, has a more delicate pattern of embroidery. The sweater is approx. 25 to 25 1/2 inches for the xxs. Since it is a jersey stitch all of the hems are finished with a fine tubular border. The neckline is an open BALLET style which I think is very feminine and in keeping with the style of the emb. There is a slight shape to this sweater so it is not straight up and down. You can see in the photos the small flowers and leaves which gives the emb. a refined delicate look……As it turns out the emb. on this BLACK SWEATER just happens to work perfectly with the new SOFT FLORAL skirt in the Black combination, A341732/A341733……Honestly, this was a total accident, but a fabulous one…..Due to the first tier of the skirt not having a lot of fullness the sweater sits on top beautifully. This is another way to combine and mix your wardrobe……..Also, in the pictures above, to the upper left is the new BLACK MOSS CREPE SKIRT, A341729. I can not tell you enough how the shape of this skirt will work with so many tops and jackets where other “fuller” skirts will not…………..With every BIG DEAL we always try to create something  special to go with it. In this case a new necklace and earring set. This necklace has a series of SEVEN graduated faceted glass beads in FIVE GROUPS spaced along the chain. The color above is PLUM with copper chain and spacer beads. This is an iridescent Plum/Magenta bead with copper high lights that you can only see from certain angles….The earring is a simple bead dropped from the chain. These will be pierced only. The style number is J356989……….I think this is a fabulous way to look, and so comfortable. Dazzle them at work, at church at dinners , special occasions and the Holidays………………………………………..Enjoy………………………………..much Love…………………………..Louis

………………….With each new BIG DEAL, in this case the EMBROIDERED SLEEVE SWEATER, I like to offer something special to go with it. With this sweater I developed a new necklace and earring set……J356989…………..As you can see in the photo to the upper left on the BLACK SWEATER….the necklace consists of FIVE GROUPS of SEVEN GRADUATED GLASS FACETED IRIDESCENT BEADS suspended on a chain. It is 42 inches with a 3 inch extender. The color here is…..PLUM…….but it has highlights of a beautiful Magenta, which is a color in many of the embroideries. The chain is COPPER so it will go with many of your favorite Rose Gold pieces…It looks very special with the Plum beads…When I was deciding exactly what kind of necklace I would want to accessorize these sweaters, it sort of designed itself. I didn’t want anything to massive to take away from the embroidery, but I still wanted something that would have a strong enough presence to stand on its’ own, and to be able to be worn with many other things…..I knew I wanted something long-ish to hang on the solid front…It had to be a combination of FRAGILE…and….BOLD…..not an easy task, but as I said it almost designed itself. I think it’s the perfect compliment to these sweaters. It is also the necklace I used with the SHADOW FLORAL BLOUSES, and as I am now working on the outfits for future shows I find myself reaching for these necklaces. It’s that kind of necklace that you can wear casually with a sweater and jeans or dressed up…..The earring is a simple bead dropped from the chain with a lever back…….I know when you see all the colors you will want more than one…but which ones are going to be difficult!…………………………………………………..enjoy……………………….much Love………………………..Louis
