…………….By now I think it is well established that the OMBRE TUNIC, A263353, is an unequivocal hit. We are continuing with it, and two more new color combinations have been added…..However, I have been searching for a new Ombre print to do in the SAME FABRIC, and the SAME BODY ………and I think I have found just the right one……THE OMBRE LEOPARD PRINT, A374662….The difference is this new version has been changed from 3/4 sleeves to LONG SLEEVES!……Animal prints have been surging back. Two years ago when I said to the buyers I wanted to do animal and snake prints they looked at me like my head was in the clouds. “No” was the answer, “they aren’t happening now”….My answer was “you may not see them now, and that’s a good thing, but they will be roaring back, and it’s better to be ahead of the curve than behind it”……One has to have a 6th sense and vision to know when “is the right time” Thank the Lord I was blessed with this 6th sense. I think all good designers know when the right time is. ………The color above is called CARAMEL, but as you can see there are many shades of colors to create the ombre effect. At the very top there is a deep ivory with linen and taupe, and as you go down the body the alabaster, caramel, brown and black are introduced……With these colors a variety of bottoms colors can be used….starting at the left…..the CARAMEL Super Ponte pant…..the ALABASTER Super Ponte pant………the LINEN and BLACK crop Super Ponte pants all work perfectly, and those are just the ones I tried…..I am sure you have many pants hanging in your closets that will work just as well….like a pair of khakis or natural linen trousers…..Add your BLACK pencil skirts in WK or Super Ponte for a dressier look……Likewise a variety of accessories can be used to change the look every time you wear it…..Again, starting at the left, the COWRIE SHELL necklace, the TAN GLITTERATI necklace and earring, the BUTTERCREAM SANTE FE necklace and earring, the BROWN TASSEL GRANDE necklace and lastly the BLACK GLITTERATI necklace and earring………and that’s just a start…….The CHOCOLATE GRECIAN necklace, earring and bracelet will look incredible too…..as will the CHOCOLATE & GOLD BISTRO MULT CHAIN necklace and earring, and the CHOCOLATE MOON GLOW necklace and earring for something a little dressier……The Black and Chocolate or the Black/Gold and Tortoise Chain Gang necklace will also add a strong punch to the Leopard top………..I am sure you will love this new version of the ombre Leopard top as you have with the original version, and I know you will enjoy all the different ways to wear and accessorize it…………The question will be which color……or colors to choose……..THIS TOP WILL BE FEATURED THIS COMING MONDAY, 2/24 on PM STYLE on QVC1……………….
enjoy……………….much Love…………………….Louis
