Yearly Archives: 2017

…………………………..SURPRISE SURPRISE…..at the last minute the Q has decided to add my new FLORAL PRINT SHIRT, A287619, and BOHO SKIRT, A287620,  to Monday’s Morning Q line up. As it stands now I will be on in the last half hour, but that can change!….These pieces were supposed to be part of my March presentation, but since they arrived at the warehouse early…..why not present them now instead of a month from now! For those of you with early travel plans to warm locals….these could be just the thing to add to your travel wardrobes….The CRINKLE GEORGETTE fabric used for these two pieces is the same as my solid Boho skirt and Safari shirt……The Boho skirt is exactly the same with the same tricot lining, so the size is exactly as it has been.  The new shirt is exactly the same as the solid Safari shirt with the same faux de Chine tank, and REAL SHELL BUTTONS. The only difference is the Floral shirt has a long sleeve with a button cuff instead of the roll-up with the tab. I think the pictures say it all……The new FLORAL EMB. BASEBALL JACKET looks wonderful mixed with the prints….The BLACK GAUZE CREPE pant adds that languid feeling……a perfect compliment to the breezy shirt…….The MARDI GRAS NECKLACEJ335211, and MULTI DROP EARRING, J270116, [at a fabulous clearance price], give the outfit a fun bohemian look……………………………………..so enjoy…………..much Love………………………….Louis

………………….The look in a word is……………COOL…………….I love the BLUEBELL PRINTS mixed with white, but pale yellow, LEMON, and pale sky blue will also look great…….. The WATERFALL NECKLACE and EARRING SET, J321804, or the COBALT DROP PENDANT J33066, and the CHAIN HOOP, J267610, are just three Linea pieces that you can accessorize beautifully with the BLUEBELL FLORAL………YES, that is a SLEEVELESS WING COLLAR SHIRT that will be coming this SUMMER…You asked for it….you got it!……but…..it’s way too early for descriptions….Let me just say there is a color for each of the floral prints….Lets keep some things a mystery for now!………MIX…or…MATCH your prints for a variety of outfits……..Florals are always in for Spring….but never more so than SPRING 2017…………………………………..enjoy……………much Love………………………..Louis

………………………….I love this SUMMERTIME POPPY RED……………….It’s the GOOD LUCK COLOR!…….Please look at the pictures carefully because each tells a story…..You have your mixes with the Poppy Red playing with the yellow…….accented with the Mardi Gras Necklace or the gorgeous TURQUOISE SEED BEAD NECKLACE, J329589, for a fabulous and unexpected POP!………..You have your SHIRT and SKIRT MATCHED for a wonderful summer 2 piece breezy cool dress…….Wear them belted or loose…..both ways look fabulous!………………For my daring Bohemian gypsy….wear the prints MIXED as shown in the photos to the upper right……………..These are summer clothes to have fun with………Fabulous accessories, bags and footwear are a must…….Every thing you combine with the prints and solids makes an important statement……….Again, these florals will be featured on Monday, Feb. 13th on the Morning Q show. I will be on in the last half hour….unless something changes!……………………………enjoy…………………..much Love…………………..Louis

there have been some additions to my schedule on Feb 13.

1- I will be on the Morning Q show with TWO new items….the FLORAL PRINT SAFARI SHIRT, which is the same fabric and body as the original crinkle georgette safari shirt. The difference between the two is the floral has a regular long sleeve with a button cuff……The boho skirt will also be in the same floral print. The colors for both items are Black multi, Bluebell multi, and Poppy Red multi. These items were supposed to be for my March show, so I was surprised they were added to this show . The skirt is only getting two minutes! I will be on sometime between 8:30 and 9am. I will be posting pics of these florals as soon as I get a chance.

Besides my 3:00pm show I will be on Inspired Style with the solid Safari shirt and skirt

…………………..The SAFARI SHIRT, A214117, and the BOHO SKIRT, A70208, are both coming back in………FOUR…….new colors…………I call them my MARDI GRAS COLORS. Both of these items have been ordered many many many times. I think the BOHO skirt alone is going on its’ 6th or 7th year……………..I had to ask myself why do these two pieces continue to be so popular….so I went back to read the reviews…….It quickly became clear why so many of you keep collecting these pieces, and look forward to adding new colors. COMFORT was one of the main reasons you all love these pieces. The fact that they are FEATHER WEIGHT, and COOL to wear makes them both perfect for the summer. ACCORDING TO THE REVIEWS they can be worn in the hottest most humid weather. It’s hard to find styles that basically cover you up, but are still breezy and cool to wear….Then there is the MOST IMPORTANT FACT that they are so flattering on most body types. Since they sell in all sizes from XXS to 3X you can bet that there is a good possibility they will work for you……If you are unfamiliar with these styles I do suggest you do as I did. Read what many women have said about the SAFARI SHIRT and the BOHO SKIRT, and then decide if these styles may be for you!

…………………………….PERIWINKLE, is the first color I am presenting. This season I have done quite a few styles in Periwinkle. Let me be clear……they are ALL DIFFERENT versions of Periwinkle. None match with each other, except this shirt and skirt, but you would probably not wear the other different styles together anyway………..This is a very saturated, but SOFT color that is flattering to all. As you can tell from the photos above, I love Periwinkle with WHITE……..The white WING COLLAR SHIRT, A259103, and the LINEA LEISURE WHITE PANT, A262070/A262072, are just two options……….The WATER FALL NECKLACES, J321804, in WHITE and BLUE add just the right touch……………….February may seem a little early to be presenting such summery colors for some of you who are still digging out of the snow, but remember it’s already summer weather in many parts of the country…………………enjoy now or later……………….much Love…………………………………Louis
