The same two pieces that will be available in the BRICK RED will be available in the……………..HUNTER GREEN……………….This time the combination is……… HUNTER GREEN……BLACK…………..LUGGAGE…..with that allusive touch of GOLD………In the Brick Red photos the top was worn tucked in…..here the top is on the outside of the skirt and belted…..tucked in….worn out,,,belted or not….it all works……………………..As you can see from the photos above the NUTMEG CARDIGAN, A257376 and the matching NUTMEG TANK, A237404, are the perfect match……..The LUGGAGE or TARRAGON LEATHER BLAZERS work well with the Hunter Green Flame Stitch pieces as well………Take Note…….I do not like the Nutmeg with the Luggage leather, but I do like the Nutmeg with the Tarragon leather. I like the Hunter Green WK with the Luggage Leather…..so there are lots of alternatives to pull it all together…of course this is MHO….PLEASE NOTICE the Whisper Knit SCARVES in both the NUTMEG and the HUNTER GREEN, A257294 which give you that added extra dramatic ACCENT……….and FUNCTIONAL too!…………………………….Fall is definitely in the Fashion Air!!!………………………………..enjoy……………..Much Love……………………….Louis

………….By now some of you have received the LINEA BODY TIGHTS, and I’d like to know your opinions about them…..So far, I know Jac and the models loved them, and I know Kate loves them. I would really like to know your opinions about them…..texture, opacity, stretch, fit and anything else you might like to add. This line will be sold OLO so there will be no advertising for them, except for here on my site and WORD OF MOUTH! I am really doing this line as an accommodation to all of you who want your tights to match your clothing exactly without having to search the stores for a similar color. So it’s in your hands….or on your legs….LOL

Jac and I arrived in PA. on Thursday, a day before my show on Friday. I like to come down early to make sure I don’t hit any traffic or run into back ups that always take place on the CT, NJ and PA turnpikes. As we arrived in West Chester PA. Jac saw a sign for the Goshen Country Fair…..”LET’S GO” she said….Since we had nothing better to do and I had already dropped off all of the clothing, sketches etc that I lug down for each show , I said LET’S GO!. We stopped at the hotel first to check in….got directions to the fair and off we went. I had never been to a real country fair with animals and pie contests and the best and biggest squash contest etc. If you have been you know what I mean. There is a picture of me, but I accidentally cut off my head when I was making the collage and didn’t notice it….now I can’t prove I was there….unless you can recognize my legs!!!The pretty little blond girl won a BLUE RIBBON for best calf. I think it was part of the 4H club. As a kid I always wanted to be a member of the 4 H club….oh well another dream unfulfilled! LOL… I loved the lambs in their little costumes with their hoods and coats….especially the ones in the Leopard and Zebra print. I don’t know what they were for, but they were the most fashion inspiration I got…..maybe to keep them clean before they were to be judged??? There were lots of places to eat and drink and tons of rides for the kiddies, and their were TONS OF KIDDIES….most screaming at the top of their lungs. I didn’t find any “fashion” inspiration from all the of people piling in and waiting on long lines for tickets to the rides. Lots of stands with different games where you could win a stuffed animal. After giving the place a good walk around, about 35 minutes, and we were starting to smell like hay…..it was time to…….LET’S GO!……Now I can cross that off my list of things I’ve never done………..Country Fair…..CHECK……….Actually we had a good time……………………….we always do.

As many of you know who were able to watch my show yesterday…..the LEATHER BLAZER was added onto the show at the last minute…so…I really wasn’t prepared to show it on the models the way I had planned. It was initially scheduled to be on the 18th….but as I always say….”Men make plans and God laughs”…………..The pictures were taken and the collages were ready, so I’m certainly not going to waist them……here they are…….

Above, is the luggage leather…..Some were afraid it might be too orange or pumpkin….it is not. It’s a true luggage or peanut brittle color. I absolutely love this color with any of your traditional Fall colors….two being….Hunter green and Aubergine, as seen above…..The Hunter Green version, on the left, has my Hunter Green TN, coming soon, and my Hunter Green WK pant. Since the Black is almost completely sold out, I know the sizes of the Hunter Green and the DARK NAVY will start to go next. With the H.G. I have chosen to accessorize with my DEMI-HOOPS in GOLD, which have been reordered, and two of my GOLD HORSE BIT NECKLACES, J288018, which are still avail. I love the simplicity of the Horse Bit necklace because it just looks classy, and I love CLASSY….NOTICE the HUNTER GREEN SCARF worn over her shoulder to complete “THE LOOK”….coming soon…………….For the AUBERGINE combination I have the new WK AUBERGINE SKIRT, A237412…..I would not hesitate too long deciding on this skirt….ESPECIALLY now that AUBERGINE DYED TO MATCH TIGHTS are  AVAIL! With the skirt I have the CLASSIC V-NECK WK SWEATER, A217629….FYI…it will be in the HUNTER GREEN TOO! For the perfect accessories I have chosen the WINE FLEUR DE LIS CROSS, J271859, and two of the WINE ENAMEL & BEAD STATION NECKLACES, J271861…….You are never going to find a better match. For the ear…my gold Demi Hoop…………………………For those of you who were lucky enough to purchase one of these LUGGAGE JACKETS there are many many ways to wear it…..These are just two………enjoy……………………..much Love…………………..Louis

For my green LOVERS…..The TARRAGON LEATHER JACKET works perfectly with the new WHISPER KNITS in the HUNTER GREEN…..Above the classic V-NECK, A217629, and the WK PANT. The double strand Linea Gold ball necklace is a must have….and it will be in three additional finishes that I have developed with the factory…..LINEA SILVER….LINEA GUNMETAL, and LINEA CHOCOLATE…..There will also be a small ball earring in each of the finishes……A very early SNEAK PEEK, at the upper right, is my FLAME STITCH TOP, A257287 in Hunter green and the matching SKIRT, A257288….I will give you all the info in a future Sneak Peek…..all I will say is they are fabulous pieces and look and feel like a FORTUNE!…………….enjoy……………much Love …………………..Louis
