“THE WHITE & BLACK EYELET SHIRT JACKET”

bread1

 

……………….I think this EMBROIDERED EYELET SHIRT/JACKET, A265616,  just may become a go to piece………..The fabric is the key here….It’s 100% cotton, but it’s the embroidery that tells the tale……..The more stitch count to the embroidered openwork the more costly the fabric, and this shirt has tons of open work and  emb. There is an English female designer who has also done an emb. eyelet shirt this year in an almost exact pattern……really I couldn’t tell the difference in the fabric. However, the price of her shirt and mine are oceans apart. The silhouette is simple. A classic straight body with a turn back 3/4 length sleeve. The shirt collar has a separate stand so it’s easy to flip up for a little attitude. There are small side slits. The length is approx.25 inches for the size 6…..Yes, it is numerically sized…… Since you will have to wear a tank or something under it…I prefer it left unbuttoned. This a a terrific shirt to pop a color under such as mt Petrl blue tank shown above. This shirt can work for anyone’s life style, and can be worn for many occasions or none at all. This is one of those simple but stylish timeless pieces that will come in very handy when you want a little something to cover your arms. Wear it over separates or a little dress……..The colors are BLACK or WHITE……a very easy decision…………………………..enjoy………………..much Love…………………………………Louis

“THE BLACK WK BOLERO”

…………………………….The WK BOLERO, A265614………..in BLACK……….is an ESSENTIAL….I think one of the comments I hear many times from women is…….”I need something to cover my arms”…..Is that not true?I think this Bolero is the perfect answer to that question……If you recognize this Bolero that is because this is very similar to a piece that I have done before. I felt it was time to bring it back. With all of the tanks, various sleeveless tops and dresses it is essential to own these types of garments as a little cover up. For me it really has nothing to do with whether you have firm arms or not. For me….it’s about the “LOOK” and what it adds to the outfit. Of course there is a practical side to wearing this bolero, and that’s comfort. We have all experienced going from the summer heat and entering a refrigerator like room. Even sitting in an air conditioned car can require something to cover your arms. You may live in the hottest most humid climate, but you still experience the chill of an over air conditioned environment.

The bolero is made in the ENR construction and is approx. 17 inches long…..which is a little longer than the original. It has a single button at the neck. Wear it mixed….wear it matched….wear it with separates or dresses, casual or dressed up…..it’s a piece that works with everything. Above, from left to right: The Black Bolero with the A255148 TANK….one of my most favorite pieces, and for those of you who are looking for something different in a tank, and a little more fashion forward…this is it. The color is DEEP PINK. On the bottom a BLACK WK SKIRT. You have a few choices in the WK, and two of them are A237412, and A253411. They are avail in different sizes so check them out. I love the idea of an all WK SOFT UNCONVENTIONAL SUIT. The Ivory RIBBED BOTTOM TANK, A232345 is next, and this may be one of my most popular tanks ever. It’s been reordered twice and these are the last quantities. ….Next is the same tank in Black with the ZIG ZAG SKIRT, A265559. Those of you who have tried this skirt got it home and LOVE it. Notice how the Rib bottom tank is long enough to cover the hips…..How the Black Bolero and the longer Black Tank ELONGATES…..Wearing it like this, anyone can wear this skirt successfully…all you have to do is try….you may surprise yourself. I have accessories galore that will work with this Bolero and there are just a few in the photos….The CLUSTER JET NECKLACE, J317112….the REVERSIBLE CROSS IN GUNMETAL with JET or BLACK CRYSTALS, J317110…..the 72 inch JET FACETED BEAD NECKLACE, J284043, a must have in every wardrobe….. J291538, the JET DROP EARRING, which has sold out in clear and only a few remain in the black Jet….. J291535, the BLACK JET SPACED BEAD NECKLACE….delicate with a presence…..and perfect for layering. Not shown is J291536, the BLACK JET FACETED BEAD STRETCH BRACELET….great on it’s own….doubled or mixed with other bracelets………..Also just avail. the new WATERFALL NECKLACE & EARRING SET in the BLACK, WHITE and BLUE………….and the FROSTED BEAD NECKLACES & EARRING SET in PINK and AQUA. That my friends is a whole lot of choices…………………and that’s just the tip of the iceberg!……………………………………………………………………

“THE LIGHT KHAKI SLIM PANT”

slim pant1

 

………………………………..The new SLIM PANT, A265615, has already been posted and many of you have already bought, received…..and come back for more……and I’m not even showing it until next month on June 4th [TWO HOURS]!] I have to say….if this is a new QVC policy of posting the clothes well before they air I’m all for it. It gives those of you who are really interested the opportunity to buy early….get it home to see how it fits, and still gives you enough time to exchange for another size or add more colors before the frenzy of show time. Have you noticed, or am I mistaken, that complaints about not being able to get things has been diminished since the Q has been posting early…..that and their increased inventory I think have calmed the waters…………………Since these pants have been posted on the Linea site, and many have received them, I see no reason to hold the sneak peeks any longer. Everything you need to know about the details is posted on the site, so I’ll tell you what is not posted. This a pull on ankle pant…..the length is the QVC STANDARD…..this is not arbitrary. If you don’t like the length that is a discussion you must take on with the QVC Fit and Production team……….I have chosen the …..LIGHT KHAKI …… as the first photo. I think it is a marvelous Spring/Summer color, and in the warmer climates a year long color…..I think it’s a fabulous neutral and can be a replacement for white……It’s not too yellow or too gray…It is a very clean fresh beige….The FABRIC is new to Linea. It is a lighter weight Poly/ Rayon/Span Knit, and when I say lighter I mean in comparison to the Super Ponte or the regular Ponte knits I have used in the past. As I have said, I liken it to the Moss Crepe on steroids. The surface of the fabric is clean and almost smooth to the touch……The inside is silky…..The clean surface enables this pant to go DRESSY or CASUAL. Certainly the care instructions and comfort of the pant make this an ideal travel pant……………..The Light Khaki is perfect to wear with black , navy, charcoal….. really all dark colors….. as it is with softer paler colors such as the SEA FOAM above. The CARDIGAN, A255669 in the FLECKED Sea Foam knit is on clearance, and is almost sold out, but the SHORT SLEEVE V-NECK, A233942 is still avail. The CINNAMON, CHARCOAL and NATURAL are avail also, and if there was ever a light weight summer knit top and cardigan….this is it…………..The AQUA FROSTED DROP NECKLACE, J321803 coming soon, and the DEMI hoop, J270391, or GOLD BALL STUD EARRING, J317109 is all you need to make a soft yet bold statement……………………………………………………………………………………………..enjoy…………. much Love…………………..Louis
