…………..A265607, is the new COTTON 92%/SPAN 8% Knit top with EMBROIDERY………..You all know the fabric….it’s the same cotton knit that I have been using for many years, and it is now the staple fabric of my Linea Leisure line….I think one of the things most of the women love about this fabric is that it has some substance. This is not a thin clingy fabric that is going to show every lump and bump……On the contrary….it glides over the body and seems to smooth everything out…..Too many times I see women in these thin clingy jersey tops, and I wonder if they really have taken a good look at them selves in the mirror….especially from the back….not a good thing…..This fabric does just the opposite……. The garment has a body contour fit through the top, and then flares to an A-Line bottom. It has my signature patch pockets with the inserted band opening for easy access. The sleeves are short, and the neckline is a “V”. The length for the XXS is approx. 29 inches……so it covers the derrier, which makes it perfect for leggings……The Linea logo is subtly emb. on the pocket. It is so subtle that I had to double check to see if it was there!………Once again….I took a mind trip to Morocco for inspiration for the embroidery….which is all done in a chain stitch………The color above is simply called BLUE/TURQUOISE. I have chosen to show it with my AQUA JEANS, A252357….and why not!? I really don’t understand the hesitation so many women have about wearing a color bottom….especially with TUNICS or long tops. Must you be confined to always wearing the most basic colors? It’s really time to not only step out of that box….but CRUSH IT!…..You will have so much more fun, and I guarantee you WILL receive compliments………..For another look….wear this top with my new WHITE CROP JEAN, A265539, and either the AQUA DENIM VEST, A252356, or the AQUA DENIM JACKET, A232350…….The white vest or jean jacket will look fresh and clean as an alternative……. A pair of TURQUOISE earrings and maybe some bangles or just a watch…..like my BLUE ENAMEL watch, J277885, will complete the look……It’s always a good thing to add some emb. to your wardrobes to break up all of the solid tops you already own, and they are so much more interesting to take away on a vacation or a cruise……………………………………………………..

…………A265607, is also avail. in BLACK with HOT PINK embroidery. If you want a complimentary bottom in the same fabric, then I would suggest the BLACK Linea Leisure pant, A262069….or the BLACK Capri legging shown above, A255122. Of course the long Linea Leisure skirt, A262069, would also work if that is something you would like as an alternative to pants…..For something breezier….the BLACK BOHO SKIRT, A70208………………..All you need to complete the look is a pair of strap sandals, I would recommend PATENT or something with shine……..When you are wearing all black in the spring summer you need the relief of something that reflects light…..like BLACK PATENT LEATHER……Sandals a tote….some shiny BLACK BRACELETS such as J270118, a MUST HAVE, and a BLACK EARRING such as J291538, will add just the right touch…..Don’t forget your big black SUNGLASSES…..both dramatic. glamorous and functional………

…………………………WHITE & GREEN is so fresh and clean…….a perfect summer combination. Again, another advantage of this fabric…..no SEE THROUGH!….NO WORRIES!! How nice is it to have PATCH POCKETS in a WHITE top. Wear the top with my Crop JEAN PANT in the NAVY above, A265539, or the same crop pant in WHITE. If you prefer, on another day, the Linea Leisure pant in WHITE or NAVY, A262069…….Going to work? A navy jean skirt or my NAVY WK PENCIL, A253411, for a little dressier look. My SILVER CHAIN HOOP, J267610, in clip or pierced, plus my SILVER PANTHER LINK WATCH, J273959, is all you need…………………………………………….enjoy…………..much Love…………….Louis

……………………….The fourth and final color avail in this embroidered top is………………NAVY with GOLDENROD embroidery. Again, the Navy or WHITE L.L. Pant the Navy or WHITE Capri Legging, and the Navy L.L. SKIRT are all bottom options……Jeans…..a natural……All you really need is a pair of GOLD HOOPS and a GOLD Watch and you’re ready to go…………………………enjoy………………much Love……………………Louis

I will be getting a brand new computer system tomorrow so my computer will not be working until very late in the day or Friday morning. So, please hold off on your questions until I am back up and running…………………..thanks…………………….Louis
