On this rainy dank Sunday afternoon, Jac and I decided to take a trip into OUTER SPACE………and what a ride it was!!!!……….If you are lucky enough to have an IMAX theater near you….you MUST see this movie. If you don’t…. than 3-D will have to be good enough………This movie, without a doubt, will win every OSCAR for SPECIAL EFFECTS, SOUND and MUSIC…………….Sandra Bullock, who I absolutely LOVE, just may have the Oscar in her back pocket…..she was that good, and George Clooney was his charming best……….but……..it’s the trip that will ASTONISH you……….WOW…….I don’t think I will be booking a trip on Branston’s flights into space anytime soon…………………I’ve now been there……….and thankfully have returned to my little peaceful corner of the world…………………….don’t miss this movie…………”GRAVITY”…………..is one of the all time best!

The ASYMMETRICAL HEM PONTE KNIT DRESS……A238536…….is now posted on the QVC Linea site for ordering. The dress is made in a slightly lighter weight Ponte knit that the sportswear. The dress has a beautiful JEWEL neckline…..perfect for all of the new necklaces…..such as the MULTI STRAND GOLD NECKLACE above….J284035. The dress has long sleeves to show off a beautiful bracelet such as my BLACK CABOCHON BEAD and GOLD stretch cuff…..J154281….this is a bold piece and one of my most favorite pieces…..but this is only for women who like to wear BOLD STATEMENT jewelry……I call these “runway” pieces……The FIT & FLARE silhouette is extremely flattering. The ASYMMETRICAL HEM is what separates this dress from all of the others, and gives the dress a modern edge…..definitely….a STATEMENT DRESS! The dress….”WALKS” beautifully, which means when you walk in the dress it moves and flows gracefully. I would love to see this dress worn with beautiful POINTY TOE, SINGLE SOLE [not platform], HIGH HEELED ….BLACK SUEDE BOOTS…or pointy toe black suede pumps. These are the shoes of the season…….SLEEK MODERN….CLEAN…….fabulously cut shoes and boots. It would also look great with black opaque tights and a sleek black suede shoe bootie. The dress has a back zip for comfort. If you are petite….this will be a mid calf BOOT dress……….This is a simple dress that makes a STRONG statement……the perfect ACCESSORY dress……..scroll down………………enjoy……much Love………………………….Louis

The second color choice for the ASYMMETRICAL HEM PONTE DRESS, A238536…..is ……….VIOLET……a beautiful deep and saturated color……The silhouette of the DRESS, and the silhouette of the SEAMED JACKET,  A229475…..work PERFECTLY together….almost as if they were meant to go together…..and they were!…….. The colors are PERFECT……..I have the VIOLET dress simply accessorized with the MULTI COLOR, MULTI STRAND GLASS BEADS NECKLACE, J284038……The metallic multi strand necklaces, J284035,  in the gold or silver would also work beautifully….A  BLACK or VIOLET suede pump would complete the look…….also….another HOT HOT pump of the season to consider…….. is the………GOLD LEATHER PUMP….there are many out there this season at all kinds of crazy prices…but 9 West at the DSW web site has a beauty at an incredibly low price……strange at it may seem….they become a neutral, and they are lots of FUN….I will be showing them on my Oct 18th show……actually, I have already shown them when I did the “hit” from Bryant Park…..when we previewed the TOPPERS!………..scroll down……………….enjoy………………….much Love………………………….Louis

The third and last color being offered in the ASYMMETRICAL HEM DRESS, A238536….is………….MALACHITE…………again, the SEAMED JACKET in MALACHITE, A229475, and the MALACHITE dress work perfectly together. There is a slight difference in color, but only the absolutely MOST FINICKY will be bothered by the difference…..you will never find another dress or jacket that matches these any better…….This is the perfect HOLIDAY dress………..a beautiful color, an easy fit….and so comfortable!…..I have accessorized the jacket with my NEW BROOCH, J284040, in the GREEN/BLUE combination…………..On the dress I have the DOUBLE SIDED CROSS, J284039. For this choice, one side of the gold cross has an EMERALD stone, and on the other side the stone is SAPPHIRE…there is also the GOLD/RUBY/VIOLET option that would work beautifully with thee VIOLET DRESS. Also, with the cross I have combined J284036, the super long EMERALD and GOLD bead necklace……To give the whole look  a little “EDGE”……I have added the…..MULTI CROSS NECKLACE, J270119….in the matte gold……….For me…..it makes the whole look…..Is it necessary?….no….it’s just my esthetic……J284037, the GOLD HAMMERED EARRING with the center STONE is the perfect compliment to the other pieces of jewelry……… I know there will be some who do not like the asymmetrical hem…..and I would say….then this is not for you….Not everything can or should be for everyone. This is for those of you who like and want the unexpected….the experimental………..the new!…………………………….enjoy………………………much Love……………….Louis

……..Sometimes….I’m the last to know!………I have been advised that there is a post on the QVC Fashion Forum stating that the METALLIC MULTI STRAND NECKLACES have finally arrived!!!!!!Since I receive my samples in a plastic bag…I would love to know from someone who has received one of them…how they were packaged? Were they in a larger box or pouch?………Anyway…..they are here and they are getting great reviews. As you see from the photos above….GOLD is one of the colors…..it is a beautiful gold and coordinates with the swirl and demi hoop earrings……..This necklace has a three inch extender, so those with a shorter neck can wear it lower…….If you are interested….do NOT hesitate….there was a wait list which I assume is being filled…………..and what quantities remain after those orders are filled will be minimal……..I see the MULTI is already sold out!………I know these will give you years of enjoyment………………much Love………Louis
