***************THE LONG SLEEVE SAFARI SHIRT****************

bootcut5 bootcut7 bootcut6

……………………………Another one of my favorite things this past season was the new version of the SAFARI SHIRT & TANK SET, A267863……..I was asked to come up with a more season-less version of the Crinkle georgette Safari shirt that has and continues to be very successful. I found a new and very beautiful georgette fabric that has a wonderful drape and beautiful to the touch…….I kept the same REAL SHELL BUTTONS, shirt collar, double pockets and buttoned flaps……..the only thing that has been changed with the design is the sleeve. Instead of a roll up with a tab…..this new version has a classic long sleeve with a one button cuff……This shirt is now on clearance with a $20 reduction. It’s a great buy for a shirt of this quality…. that will never go out of fashion, and can be worn all four months…..year after year after year……………The IVORY is a MUST HAVE…..the gray works with so much and looks fantastic under the color block cardi in gray and blue……the marine blue is the perfect transition from fall to spring to summer. If you haven’y already purchased this wonderful shirt……..it’s something to think about……while they last!…………………………….enjoy……………………………much Love………………………….Louis

    All 3 colors (yes at initial pricing point) in my closet also and doubles on the ivory. Washes like a dream. Love this wonderful piece!

      Nancy you won’t be sorry. since I probably won’t be doing a blouse at this price anyway.

    I also have this shirt in all three colorways. Bought it early, expecting it to sell out. It’s a classic I wear often, but especially with the grey colorblock sweater over the new grey ponte pants.

    I have this in all three colors and love it! I purchased a few on clearance for Christmas presents. I cannot imagine why this one did not make it. The fabric is lovely and the fit is absolutely wonderful – beautiful design.

    I have this in 3 colors and am amazed it wasn’t a huge seller. This is my all-time favorite. I am considering getting a second gray one – I love it so much. It hangs well and washes beautifully. Thank you.

      Me too. I was sure it would be a reorder…..you can’t be sure of anything!

    Sorry to see this on clearance…I was looking forward to more colors as well, and I also purchased all 3 colors at full price. This blouse with the numerical sizing fits me the best of any you have done. The sleeve length is always an issue for me, and the cotton shirts like the Kate are too bulky if worn down; lots of fabric gathered around the wrist and no way to shorten the sleeves. I always need to roll them up, which isn’t wonderful under a jacket. I was thrilled with this blouse for the fit, exquisite detailing and the drape of the fabric.

    Have this in all three colors. Paid full price. Love this shirt so much! Wish it had been a big seller so it’d come back in more colors.

    I have this shirt and tank in the blue color way, and it’s much prettier than the QVC photo.

      Hi Lyn….isn’t that always the case! Have you looked at the picture of the Zebra coat. She’s not even wearing it correctly!

      1. Lyn

        Well, after the on-air presentation of the Zebra coat, I ordered the Tobacco (including the Tobacco swing sweater). Then I went back and ordered the Grey (haven’t received it yet). I love the style of this coat. I also like animal prints.

        1. Louis Dell'Olio

          Dear Lyn…..I’m so happy to hear you liked the coat well enough to order the grey…..which I know you will love….it really looks sharp with an Ivory sweater and a black bottom. I do recommend the ivory swing TN….it just elevates the whole look and makes it look very modern….but any ivory piece will work great

          1. Lyn

            Hi Louis, I received the Grey Zebra Coat yesterday, and I can’t wait to wear it. I didn’t order the Ivory Swing TN, because I thought the turtleneck might be too heavy around my neck (nerve problems). However, I do have the Ivory Ribbed Cardigan and several black Linea pants.

            1. Lyn

              I forgot to mention that I also have the Ivory Posh Neck cardigan and turtleneck. I’ll try that with the Grey Zebra coat and black pants. Thanks for the suggestions.

              I still have your last QVC shows on my DVR, and sometimes I play parts of them back. I especially like to see how you styled the garments that I ordered.
