…………………..I am very fond of SANGRIA!!…..especially this time of year when the fruit is is getting ripe!………….This Sangria tunic, A255672, is a beautiful combination of BLACK LACQUER WOOD BEADS combined with BLEACHED IVORY WOODEN BEADS……….the look is striking……………I do want to say the actual color of the Sangria is not as deep, bright or intense as the photos!. I tried to photograph it with the flash and without, but alas I couldn’t capture the actual color which is softer and not nearly as intense or bright…..I don’t want to deceive you or have you disappointed when you get it……….Make NO mistake…..it is still a FABULOUS color and with the wood beads there is a certain authenticity……the colors of an antique NAVAJO BLANKET!!………..Above, for a fun way to dress,  I have it shown with my BLACK COTTON STRETCH WALKING SHORTS, A254313….All you will need to complete the look is a pair of fabulous black sandals or wedges, a black or straw tote….and the mandatory black sunglasses…….everyone needs to wear sunglasses!!!!……. There are many alternatives to the shorts as you would guess….The pebble crepe crops, the CAPRI length cotton span legging, A255122, the cotton/span long legging, A252344, the COTTON SATEEN CROP PANT A254640 in the Black , and the PONTE slim pant or legging…..and any BLACK short skirt such as my WK pencil, A353411, will give a wonderful dressed up look…….a pair of black patent sling backs would be perfection….peep toe or closed……..Sangria anyone?………..

…………………I have been bringing you the BOHO skirt for about  six years now….give or take…probably give…..so for those of you who own it….I would guess in more than one color…..you know just how wonderful this garment is for so many reasons…………..If you are new to Linea, let me tell you a bout this skirt……..It is make in a 100% polyester CRINKLE GEORGETTE. I did 100% silk 9in a crinkle georgette  a few years ago and honestly the difference in look and feel is minimal. Certainly the benefits of the polyester make this a perfect garment to take away on trips. The fabric is somewhat sheer….so the skirt is lined in a light weight tricot knit. There are two side slits in the liner and with the amount of stretch….it is total comfort. The great majority of women who own this skirt say it is very comfortable and COOL TO WEAR. The skirt has four shirred tiers of fabric and comes to mid calf….this is not a maxi skirt and was never intended to be one…………….The waist has a full elastic so this is a PULL-ON skirt. The top tier has just enough fullness to get over the hips……not an excessive amount….The balance of each tier was mathematically thought out to perfection. Another thing about this skirt is…..it can be worn for all twelve months…….In the summer you can wear it with a simple tank or “T” shirt, or with my WHITE BODY SUIT, A254576, for a very sleek look [shown above]……….For a “COLUMN OF COLOR”…..the SAFARI CRINKLE GEORGETTE SHIRT, A214117, shown above as a buttoned up shirt or as a shirt jacket, will provide you with all that…and more………………………This skirt, over the years, has come in a slew of colors………………now I am bringing you……SMOKE……..which is the latest color to be offered……………..Of course SILVER IS THE PERFECT COMPLIMENT!………………………….scroll down……………………………………………enjoy………much Love…………………..Louis

……………………………….I LOVE CHILI PEPPER!!!………….It’s not your traditional red…….it’s a…..”DESIGNER RED”….It’s definitely a little spicy. By now…you can have a complete wardrobe in this color….if you choose to…………Above, you have the BOHO SKIRT….the SAFARI SHIRT & TANK, and the OPEN FRONT WK CARDIGAN, A233950….which I call the Kimono cardigan because of the band front……Besides these pieces in the CHILI PEPPER there are additional WK sweaters such as the SHORT SLEEVE cardigan and the EVERY NEEDLE RIB TANK, A253408……..There is also the IKAT PRINT SHIRT/JACKET and pull-on cotton A-LINE SKIRT. There is also the PONTE KNIT JACKET to carry all of these pieces later through the seasons……….Please notice how I have layered the SAFARI shirt with the matching C.P. tank and with a WHITE WK ENR tank…..to give it an airier look…..For a traditional yet always modern look….the WHITE Cotton shirt always looks right………………scroll down……………….much Love………………….Louis
