……………………………..MARINE BLUE is a NEW color for my LINEA customers….both new and devotees…………..It is a smoky blue that is in the family, and is  similar to…… but not the same as my Cadet Blue……….a very sophisticate shade. The REAL SHELL BUTTONS are dyed to match as is the tank. This is a blue that looks great with WHITE, GREY, TAN, BLACK and NAVY…..such as my NAVY SLIM PANT, A265615, shown above. With the smokey coolness of the blue….I have chosen my SILVER SIGNATURE NECKLACE, J320468, and the matching SILVER EARRING, J320884……….This is easy dressing…….dressing that will always be timeless, and pulled together without looking like you gave it a lot of thought…….EFFORTLESS dressing is always a sign of a well dressed woman……………………………….enjoy…………………….much Love…………………….Louis

……………………..The PERFECT IVORY SHIRT, A267863…………..As you can see in the photos the IVORY is not as opaque as the SLATE and the MARINE BLUE, but it is not nearly as sheer as the crinkle georgette…..so the Ivory tank is all you will need to feel comfortable………..This is definitely a shirt you can wear for the twelve months of the year………….Again, EFFORTLESS DRESSING is what this SAFARI SHIRT is all about. Pair it with a simple black skirt such as my BLACK MOSS CREPE SKIRT, A262454, and add my SIGNATURE necklace, J320468, and matching earring, J320884….this time in GOLD, and you are ready for the office, church, dinner etc. etc……Pair it with jeans and you can’t be more casual than that……..This is an ESSENTIAL piece. Good blouses and shirts are hard to find…..especially at this price range, and with this QUALITY of stitching and real SHELL BUTTONS…..it’s really unheard of…………………..enjoy………………….much Love…………………………..Louis

………………….In this month of July and on into August I will be introducing a series of new necklaces…..each very different and for very different purposes. Many of you have already seen glimpses of them in previous sneak peeks. First to be delivered was the GOLD and SILVER NUGGET NECKLACES, which are already avail for ordering………..The next necklace I want to formally introduce to you is the…..DINGLE DANGLE NECKLACE, J325473. Dingle Dangle is a name I have given to it, but not the name you will see on the QVC site……A few seasons back I did a necklace called the Wind Chime….It had a single row of chain, and there were five vertical  rows of metal shapes in various shapes and sizes hanging from each other and from the chain…in a bib style…This necklace was an instant success and sold out….There were discussions on whether we should reorder it or not. In the end we decided to use the $$$$ for new pieces. This decision instantly made the Wind Chime Necklace and earring collectors pieces……I have seen original Anne Klein Couture jewelry that I did years ago become collector’s pieces and are now selling on ebay for hundreds of dollars……However, I have noticed that there are jewelry pieces that are being called AK Couture that are not. so always make sure it has the small  metal disc  stamped “Anne Klein Couture” attached……….This new necklace has two rows of chain from which hang a variety of metal shapes in different sizes………Oblong, Circle and Triangle shapes all with a SMOOTH WAVE surface . This undulating surface catches and reflects the light softly……There is a extender so you can wear the necklace very close to the neck, as it is in most of the photos, or drop it as it appears in the photos to the left…………..The color of the necklace is being called GOLD, but it is actually RUSSIAN GOLD. What is Russian Gold? As you know gold comes in many different karats…12, 14….18….24 etc etc. The smaller the number the lighter the color….so a 12 karat gold finish is a paler whiter yellow gold than a 14 or a 24 karat gold. Russian gold is closer to a 24 karat gold. It is deeper and warmer than then others. This is the first piece that I have done in this color gold, so this is a very special necklace. The pieces with the Linea finish….the Bold Hoop and the necklace with the double row of metal ball beads comes closest to Russian Gold… It happens to be the color gold I personally like the best, though I realize everyone has different tastes…….so I will continue to use both where I think the color gold is best suited. Even though the gold colors are different, you can easily mix your gold earrings with the Russian Gold. I have use the GOLD DEMI HOOP earring to coordinate with this necklace for a more refined subtle look. You can just as easily wear the BOLD HOOP for a more dramatic effect. For instance….if the BLACK WK MOCK NECK sweater above was a MIDI length dress or one that went all the way to the floor I would prefer the BOLD HOOP……Due to the fact that the necklace, because of the relatively flat shapes and the way they are placed on the chain, makes it very versatile. You can wear this necklace with many different tops. It even works beautifully with an open neck shirt…..The necklace fills the space perfectly without adding bulk……….I know when you receive the necklace you will quickly recognize the quality of the metal pieces and the chain…..the workmanship is SUPERB!…………I think it will become a “collector’s piece” in waiting…………………………….enjoy………………..much Love……………………..Louis

………………………….As much as I LOVE GOLD….I know there are an equal amount of you who feel the same way about SILVER. If there was ever a necklace that worked in all different metal colors …..this is it! The reason for that is…there is a lot of surface to the hanging pieces to really show off the colors of the metal…….Sliver always looks MODERN, and some what “SPACE AGE”. Its’ cool shiny surface has the look of high tech gadgets…….and liquid mercury……a space suit or a space capsule. Even I prefer Silver for certain outfits when I want to achieve a special effect……….This will actually be the final “statement” necklace of the Fall/Winter season…..so that is something to keep in mind when you are deciding colors……………………………………………………………….
