The PRIMA B TUNIC will also be avail in the HEATHER GRAY RAYON/SPAN with a SOLID GRAY GEORGETTE bottom………………This is very very CHIC and SOPHISTICATED. Pairing it with the PONTE GREY LEGGING, A239321, is like BEES to HONEY….it’s perfect……………If you are not a legging person…..the slim ponte pant in the HEATHER GRAY will be just as good. Of course BLACK is ALWAYS an option….For a two piece dress look the HEATHER GRAY PONTE SKIRT would be, IMHO, your best way to go….The J284043, HEMATITE FACETED GLASS LONG BEADS [shown here quadrupled] or as the “Q” calls them…GRAY……..are  the perfect compliment, along with the DROP EARRING, J284042………………..you really can’t do better than this. If necessary the earring is easily shortened……………….I say ” if you have no place to wear this….create a place”……………………….

The SHADOW JACQUARD JACKET, A251574, is ALL ABOUT THE UNIQUE FABRIC! This is why designers love their jobs…..always searching for the unique and beautiful fabrics. I new instantly when I saw this particular jacquard fabric that I had to do something in it for you. This is a JACQUARD FABRIC….meaning the design is woven into the cloth….there is no printing involved to produce this. It is very reminiscent of the AVANT GARDE fabrics the Japanese designers love so much. It would be a lovely fabric for a Kimono. It has a very artisan look with it’s highs and lows and shading of color…………in this case grays and blacks…….hence…..”SHADOW JACQUARD”…….If you think it may have lurex in it from the photos….IT DOES NOT. I will tell you now the fabric has a very different hand and touch to what you are used to…..that’s what gives it it’s uniqueness and the ability to hold the shape of the jacket. It is not smooth nor is it a soft fabric with drape. The fabric is constructed but is still very light weight. This is the type of fabric you will either go wild for because of it’s special beauty……….or you won’t understand it at all…..and that’s OK…………not everything can or should be for everybody……..but if you are the one that loves it…..I guarantee you will get compliments when you wear it. It can be casual with black jeans or later with crops or Capri pants………It is definitely work appropriate with dress pants a skirt or dress………..It is a jacket I can see a woman wearing to a concert at Lincoln Center in NYC, and looking absolutely stunning…..and simple at the same time……that’s a very good thing…………….I Know I would give any woman wearing this a double take!…………….The shape of the jacket is perfect for this type of fabric…IMHO……….It is a combination of the WINDOWPANE jacket from seasons passed and the BOUCLE TOPPER from this past fall….yes the one that came in RUBY, MALACHITE and LAPIS. The jacket has a drop shoulder like the topper and a similar shape. The jacket is fully lined and has a 3/4 sleeve…..great for my new WIRE CUFF BRACELET…in either SILVER or GUNMETAL….If you were lucky enough to get one of my Gunmetal earrings you are set………if not I have a “SUPPER HOOP” or as some have dubbed it the “CHUBBY HOOP”…….which will also be coming in the silver and Gunmetal………but I’m giving fair notice…..they didn’t buy a lot. The jacket is approx 26 inches long for the XS……….It also has SLANTED INSET BAND POCKETS. Why do I always bring up the point that the pockets are inset…..because it is a more designer way to construct a garment, and much more expensive way to make a band pocket………something like a bound button hole. These are important details I think you should know and appreciate when you buy a garment…..anyone’s garment. I have the jacket above with a Linea tank and the new BLACK PONTE PANT…..the BLACK PONTE LEGGING and a ballet flat would look super CHIC and super MODERN too….A great BLACK TOTE, the necessary BLACK SUNGLASSES and you will look stupendous!……………………

The second color of the SHADOW JACQUARD JACKET, A251574,  is …………………..BLUE…………………….a midnight blue. I have the jacket with a BLACK LINEA TANK and the new NAVY PONTE PANT….I love NAVY and BLACK…..most designers do. Since the jacket has both colors in it ….it’s easy to understand the combination……The shaping of this jacket is very SUBTLE…..with HIDDEN DARTS that disappear into the fabric. The jacket has four buttons down the front. I personally like the jacket worn with just the top button closed….it’s less uptight. I can see this jacket worn on all women no matter the height or body shape……………..Above, I have two strands of my BLACK GRADUATED BEADS, J270117, that work beautifully on this jacket…. as well as many things coming. My BLACK DOMED STRETCH SLICE BRACELET will also give the right finishing touch……………………….

………………………………………..I think this is the perfect “novelty” jacket to start off the SPRING 2014 season………………………….enjoy………much Love…………………………………..Louis
