Hi Everyone,
I thought I would let you all know that this year I will make several appearances on QVC UK. Jac and I are very excited to make the trip and we are planning a mini vacation before the show takes place. I will be appearing on QVC UK on March 20th, and I will have two shows that day. If you have any friends in Great Brittan be sure to let them know I’m coming!! The clothes will be exactly the same clothes that we sell here in the US…..absolutely no changes….We plan on taking in all the sights and doing a little antiquing. We already have tickets to two shows, “Ghost” and “Hay Fever” a Noel Coward play. If you have been over the pond recently and have any suggestions about restaurants, nothing formal, that would be very much appreciated. The UK staff has already suggested many wonderful places to eat but all suggestions are welcome. This trip we will be staying at the Dorchester. Jac wanted to stay there because that was Elizabet Taylor’s favorite hotel….however…. we will not be staying in her suite! We have three additional trips planned this year so it’s going to be very hectic. We would love to make each one a mini vacation. If you have any friends there, maybe they can order you things that you missed out on LOL. They will not be carrying the jewelry line…..yet!…. but I will work on them!!……………much Love, Louis

Hi Everyone,

I thought I’d send you a picture of the jewelry that’s coming in May/June!

1-J267611, is the Byzantine drop earring. This earring will be avail either PIERCED or CLIP and is NICKEL FREE! This is an earring you can wear  three different ways because the drops are INTERCHANGEABLE! You can wear the top on it’s own as a button earring [it matches the Byzantine necklace with the square gold stations you may already own]. You can add the pearl drop or the carved colored drop for two totally different looks. The colors are RED as the photos above,  GREEN [the same color as the square gold station], and PURPLE. If you like you could get two colors and mix the beads….i.e. the green top with the red drop bead or the red and purple or green and purple. The whole look is very BYZANTINE.

2-J267612, is the Byzantine bead necklace. This necklace completes the trio of necklaces I continue to show,,,,the Byzantine CROSS, and the Byzantine STATION necklace. This necklace has a wider variety of beads in different shapes and sizes, some quite large. It also has some small, green, aubergine and bronze pearls scattered through out. These also match the pearl necklaces from this past fall……so it all works together!!DO NOT BE AFRAID TO LAYER YOU JEWELRY!!!! Notice in the photo to the left…all three of the Byzantine necklaces, which includes the cross. The look is truly amazing and the quality is unsurpassed.

J267610, is the chain hoop earring. I am so happy to be able to bring this earring to you. I know many of you have asked me to please offer the piece and here it is! It will be avail. in GOLD as the original sample, SILVER, HEMATITE [gunmetal], and ROSE GOLD. This earring will also be avail. PIERCED and CLIP, and is also NICKEL FREE!

I am hoping these pieces sell out really quick so I can bring you additional pieces for FALL 2012.

By the way, there are only two styles left in the Linea Jewelry line……..the three strand gold plated bracelet and the gold plated and simulated onyx bead bracelet. This is one of my personal favorites and for me there is nothing more fabulous than a woman in a black sweater and this gold and black stretch bracelet. Give them a look and give them a try……there aren’t many left and I wouldn’t want you to be disappointed!!!……much Love, Louis

A222272, will be presented on 2/24 on the morning show starting at 6:am. This is my georgette, floral wood block print. Again, this print comes from my archives. It was a print that originally came from Italy. The top has a scoop neckline and the body it totally lined to the top of the ruffle, leaving the sleeves unlined. The seam wear the bottom ruffle is attached dips in the back which creates a beautiful flowing effect when you walk or move. The sleeve ruffle is also attached on the diagonal to emulate the body ruffle. The fabric is my polyester georgette so it is easy care and great for taking away on business trips or vacation. As you can see in the photo, this top looks great either belted or loose and easy. The colors are BLACK, TERRA COTTA and GREEN. Each print has off white/ ivory motifs and touches of sand. The bottoms that work best are all the sand crepe and pebble crepe pieces including the natural P.C. crop pants from last year, all black bottoms including the new long pebble crepe skirt, long pants and crop pants and of course the new long pebble crepe terra cotta skirt. Khaki Capri pants and indigo jeans will look great too. This is a wonderful top for work, special occasions or just when you’re in the mood for something feminine and flirtatious…………….I know you will love this unique and totally “designer” print. …………………………………………………………………………………………………….Love, Louis

I told you I would be back before my next shows in March! Mark the dates and times:
2/24, 6:00am
1-A222272, is the wood block floral print [the georgette top I have shown as a sneak peek on the models]

Hi everyone!
I hope you are all doing well. I promised you some good news and I know there has been a lot of speculation. I was waiting for confirmation before I let the “cat out of the bag”. Well ladies this May/ June I will be bringing you three new jewelry styles!!! These are things you have been asking for and your efforts have paid off. The three items are:
1- J267610,is the curb link dangle hoop earring. I have been showing it for some time on the models in gold and I know many of you WANT it, or so you have told me. It is not only coming in gold, but will be available in silver, hematite [gunmetal], and rose gold. It will come in both clip and pierced and they are totally NICKEL FREE.
2-J267611, is the gemstone earring with interchangeable drops. This also is the earring I always show with the Byzantine cross and Byzantine necklace, The top of the earring is the same gold station with the cabochon stone that appears in the necklace. It will come with two different drops…..a pearl or a matching carved bead drop. The choices in color will be a GREEN top with an IVORY pearl drop and a GREEN bead drop, a RED top with an IVORY pearl or a RED bead drop and a PURPLE top with an IVORY pearl and a PURPLE bead drop. So this earring can be worn three different ways….the top alone, the top with the Ivory pearl or the top with the matching color drop bead. You could even get two pairs and mix the colors for a very exciting and truly Byzantine look.
3-J267612, is the 36 inch Byzantine “BEAD” necklace that I also have been showing as the third companion to the cross and the station necklace. This necklace has beads of different shapes, sizes and colors spaced through out and it even has a few pearls scattered through out. Of course it coordinates perfectly to the Byzantine pieces, but it is a magnificent necklace on it’s very own.
I am so excited to be able to share this great news with you! I know there are many other pieces you have requested like the chain with the five gold crosses dangling from it. If these three new pieces do as well as the last three, I am hopeful that I will be able to bring you more and more jewelry. Once again, it was you that made it possible. Your voice has definitely been heard………….much Love, Louis
