“PUTTING IT TOGETHER””

glass beads1

In the photos above you have the J284043, BRONZE necklace with the J273583, PURPLE multi necklace, the J273584, multi bead bracelet in the PURPLE and the J284042, drop bead earring in the BRONZE. Putting these pieces together is easy…….What’s going to make all the difference is what you WEAR THEM WITH. Above, I have the V-neck WK in violet that brings out the purples in the multi necklace and the bronze gives a wonderful warmth, but they will look just as amazing on the Violet sequin dress from last season………add a deep bronze evening sandal, and you have put it together………. Wear this combination on TOBACCO, SIENNA, WALNUT, TOPAZ etc etc and you will create another look. Let us know what color or colors you have mixed together to create your own special combination…….Also, if you find the drop earring a touch too long for you…………they are easily shortened to any length you desire. If you or your husband are handy….it can be done in a matter of minutes….if not…..any jeweler can do it in seconds, and if they are nice, they may not even charge….it’s that simple to do……………………………………………………………………enjoy………………………………………….much Love………………………….Louis

“THE BEET RED ZIP FRONT HOODED CARDIGAN/JACKET”

Le Colonial2

QVC has scooped me again. The BEET RED ZIP FRONT HOODED CARDIGAN/JACKET, A239315, wasn’t planned to be presented until Dec. 27th, but I’m glad they have posted it early for those of you who may want to give it a try. All of the measurements are posted on the Linea site so I won’t have to repeat all of that………The WHY of  this style, and HOW I see you wearing it is what I wan to discuss …….I wanted to create a jacket/cardigan that was casual……something different…..something out of the ordinary….. that you could wear with a sweater and a pair of jeans……a legging…..a slim pant….. I call it a CARDIGAN/JACKET because it it totally unconstructed and has the comfort of a cardigan……..yet can easily be worn as a loose easy jacket. It has a DROPPED SHOULDER SEAM which adds to that casual modern look and easy fit. The silhouette is very important…..This is not a fitted garment or a baby doll shape, but it does have a definite silhouette. The shaping on the upper torso GLIDES over  it and follows the lines of the body without being tight in any way…..at the seam, which is lower than an empire seam, the garment starts to GENTLY flare out…..not too much…..not too exaggerated……just enough to give movement and to camouflage  any trouble area you may have. This is easy dressing and meant to be worn by, and flattering to, ALL BODY TYPES. Jac and I just got back from California, and this would be the perfect jacket for all of my west coast ladies, and ladies who live in the southern regions to just throw on and go…..no fuss, and it has a lot more style than any zip front ordinary hoodie. For the ladies in the more northern regions……this can easily be worn indoors, as any of my ponte knits can, but it can also be worn under a coat…..like any other unconstructed  jacket. With this jacket you have the added PROTECTION of putting the hood up and wrapping a POSH KNIT SCARF for the added protection I know you will need. The zipper starts at the very bottom and zips up to the neckline……so…..if you wanted to wear it as an easy comfortable dress or tunic with leggings or tights and BALLET FLATS or FLAT SKIMMERS…..you could……Of course boots is always another option……..For my petite ladies….before you say “it’s too long for me”…..think about the possibilities and it may just be the something new in your wardrobes that gives you some pizazz…..instead of always going with the tried and true…………you may be pleasantly surprised…………… The jacket has wonderful rounded patch pockets placed for easy and comfortable access….pockets you can SINK YOUR HANDS INTO!………This is definitely something new for my Linea Ladies and I think you will be just as surprised with it as you were with my HOODED PONTE BLAZER…which….by the way…..is being REORDERED for next fall…… If you want something FUN…..something DIFFERENT from what you already have…….I think you will really enjoy wearing this NOW…..next SPRING…..and definitely next FALL…….you may even want to swirl…..just a little…… in this jacket…….The BEET RED and the CADET BLUE POSH KNIT is a wonderful color combination…..especially with jeans!…..scroll down for more………………………………………………………………………………………………….Enjoy……………………………..much Love………………………………………Louis
