9-A232350, Denim jacket

10-A252344, cotton span legging

11-A252346, lace shell

I think this dress is Jac’s new favorite…..because it’s so easy…..She was off to the city and wore it with the new Dark Tan cotton sateen jacket her bag, sandals, sunglasses and off she went. I did ask her to put on the PINK so you all could get a good look at the color since it will not be presented….and will only be sold OLO. I think you can get a good idea just how pretty the color is. If this sells as all of my pink clothes do….I would advise to get on wait list soon, while your size is avail.  I gave Jac the Linea pink pearls, but the pink stone necklace with gold ball and pearl accents would have been perfect mixed in. Jac always wears an xs and the dress is xs….she thought it fit perfectly. If your hips are two sizes larger than your top….you should size up one to accommodate the difference………..enjoy………….much Love……………………Louis

The CHILI PEPPER SHIRT/JACKET, A254440, and the CHILI PEPPER SKIRT, A254441, are both made in my super light weight cotton…….if you own it, and have worn it you know just how incredibly comfortable, cool  and light weight it is…as if you are wearing nothing . I know those of you who live in the hottest most humid areas of the county have come to appreciate just how comfortable this fabric is…..Some have said it’s too thin therefore it must be cheap. That is definitely not the case, but I am not here to argue their opinions, and if it is not to their liking….then it’s not for them…..I only want to please, and if you find value in this fabric I am happy. I have used this fabric once again  for a new two color print. It is an IKAT PRINT and the color above is CHILI PEPPER & BLACK. There are two styles that you can choose from….The SHIRT/JACKET and the slightly  A-Line pull-on skirt……The top is meant to be worn either as a blouse or a very light jacket. For a blouse the buttons are positioned so there is no need to wear any thing under it.  There is a notch in the jacket to create a collar, the sleeves are 3/4 length and the jacket has side slits. There are PRINCESS SEAMS front and back for a body skimming shape. This is NOT a boxy shirt/jacket or there would be no seams at all. There are snap out shoulder pads for those who need a little LIFT. It is approx 22 1/2 inches long for the xs….yes it is decidedly short…one could even say CROPPED. It would be the perfect length to wear with a longer tank if you like the layered look…. Personally…I do….. especially in these colors of CHILI PEPPER….BLACK and WHITE. ALL of your Chili Pepper separates that you have collected work beautifully with these two new accent pieces….which were deliberately created to work with all of your solid pieces. Your ENR tanks, A253408 in WHITE, BLACK and CHILI PEPPER, your Boho skirts in white, black and chili pepper….you crinkle georgette safari shirts in the same three colors….The new COTTON SATEEN CROP PANT & BLAZER…..your PONTE KNIT unlined jacket in the WHITE, BLACK and CHILI PEPPER………..and your wonderful CHILI PEPPER & BLACK LINEN BLEND PANT & JACKET all work to mix with these marvelous prints……..Something that I especially love is the BLACK & WHITE STRIPED WK SWEATER with the black cotton sateen blazer or the chili pepper linen jacket and the print skirt….it’s a fabulous unexpected combination!…..I have now offered you  a complete wardrobe in Chili Pepper, Black and White…….Wear the shirt belted or loose….it’s up to you. If you love these deep rich colors as I do, I know you will fall in love with these  beautifully executed and always EXCLUSIVE prints……To say they are chic and sophisticated truly is an understatement….They are worthy of being in any boutique or upscale designer store……The skirt is done simply. It has a slight A-line silhouette that works well with the shirt/jacket for a suited look or on its own. It has a smooth flat front with side front elastic gores, but the entire back has elastic. Of course it is UNLINED for total comfort…..Again, it’s like wearing nothing….just what you want when it’s 100 degrees in the shade…..and some parts of the country are already there and it’s only MAY!!!!! The skirt is approx. 22 1/2 inches long, and that’s measured from the bottom of the waist band to the hem………………During the hot months ahead, I know these pieces will be very much welcomed………………………………………..scroll down…………………………

My hat is truly off to my manufacture who is very much responsible for the fit and make of these beautifully clothes…..I hope you feel the same way……….scroll down………………………………………………………….enjoy…………..much Love……………..Louis

The second combination that I am offering in the IKAT print is the…………….COFFEE BEAN /LATTE …..All of the COFFEE BEAN and LATTE WHISPER KNITS and the stripe WK short sleeve sweater in the same colors…..coordinate with this print. The coffee bean cotton SHORTS and SLEEVELESS SHIRT were also all dyed to work with this print…..This is not Dark Suntan and it is a totally different color from Latte….they do not work together, If you love the combination of a coffee brown with a rich deep cream….than this is for you…..FYI…..the coffee bean PEBBLE CREPE will work with this print…..it’s coming in June…………..This print is being sold through e-mail and OLO. Watch for the prints to show up as SNEAK PEEKS ON MY 4pm SHOW……………….just so you can get a peek on a model………………..enjoy……………………much Love……………Louis
