……………………CAMEL…………is the third color that will be avail in the new V-neck Faux Shetland sweater. It is a soft camel due to the heather effect…………….The new TIGER EYE PENDANT, J333066, works beautifully with the Camel color. To keep the colors all in the same family I have chosen the LINEA BODY LEGGING, A260035, in the new UMBER color. Remember, these are nice LONG sweaters that work perfectly with leggings. Everything is covered and nothing CLINGS!……..With the addition of the Tiger Eye,  all of the colors and textures looks wonderful together. Of course you can always switch out the legging for the Dk. Umber Super Ponte Pant, A268216…….. Other alternatives with the Camel are Black, Navy, Grey, Kahki and Ivory….like the Ivory MILANO WK SKIRT, A273880……..Layering under the sweater is always an option with either a shirt [the wing collar cotton shirt in white , pale blue, pale pink are perfect], or another sweater…like a TN or jewel neck…………….These Faux Shetland sweaters are great for cozy weekends, as well as going to work come Monday morning………………………..enjoy……………much Love……………………….Louis

buys

……………….I don’t know if you have purchased your 3 PACK of my new LINEA BODY knee high sock collection yet…..but I thought I should give you a heads up! These have been “on line only” for just three weeks and more than half the quantity is sold………….If you have any reservations or hesitations……….PLEASE READ THE REVIEWS!……….They are all FIVE STAR, and they couldn’t be more glowing……..Some of the important things the women have said is they are VERY COMFORTABLE and the FIT is PERFECT….Even women with LARGE CALVES find them very comfortable and not binding in any way. My manufacturer, the best in the USA, calls the top band, “the COMFORT BAND”. Another feature they love is how SOFT they are….even the LACE. They describe the SOLID OPAQUE KNEE HIGHS as being SILKY SMOOTH……One of the most important features is that after a full day of wearing…..THEY STAY UP!…….The PRICE is also incredible for the QUALITY and DESIGN. At $17.50 they are approx. $5.80 a pair………………..These would make fabulous CHRISTMAS and HANUAKKAH presents…..No worries about fit or color, and they make a wonderful, thoughtful  impression. You can’t go wrong……………………………………….

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

“PONCHO MEASUREMENTS”

Morning all………..I want to make sure those of you who plan to order the PONCHO…order the correct size, so you are happy with what you receive. There is NO FIT to this as it is basically an oblong piece of ENR WHISPER KNIT. There are seams at the shoulders and down to the edge so there is some shoulder shape. As I have said if you are a TRUE PETITE…..NO MATTER WHAT SIZE! you should order by garment length. If you are TALL….NO MATTER WHAT SIZE garment you wear…..you too should order by the length you are most comfortable with. If you are not sure best to order one size DOWN. Jac can wear the XS/S or the M/L because she is tall and a size 6. She prefers the M/L because it is a little longer, and she likes the extra volumn, but it’s about what you can carry……..Also, a garment like this will hang a little LONGER than the flat garment measurement, [when a garment is measured flat on a table as all production measurements are done], due to the weight of the knit. Here are the measurements:

1-XS/S, length 27 inches [from High Point Shoulder to hem], total width 37 inches [from end to end laying flat]

2-M/L, length 28 inches, total width 39 inches

3-XL/1X, length 29 inches, total with 41 inches

4-2X/3X, length 31 inches, total garment width 45 inches

If you are not sure how to judge the “garment width”, take a long sleeve sweater. lay it flat and measure from the CENTER BACK of the neck….along the shoulder seam and down the arm….then double it……Usually a size sm garment is 5 inches from the CB neck to the sleeve cap seam, and the sleeve usually measures an additional 23 inches….sometimes 24 inches. This will give you a 28″/29″ measurement. Double that and the span will be approx. 56 inches/58 inches. This should be a good comparison to the poncho width. As you can see the poncho is elbow to 3/4 length depending on your arm length, and size of poncho……..I hope this explanation helps you to decide what size poncho will work best for you……..Remember, it’s ALL ABOUT THE LOOK, and VOLUMN you want…………there isn’t any fit to worry about………………….enjoy……………much Love……………………Louis
