…………………………..The LIME GREEN SHANTUNG JACKET looks fantastic with the Olive Multi crop pant which does have lime leaves…………..The Lime V neck is vintage WK Linea from the Fiesta Group, but many colors will play well……It pays to hold onto your Linea’s!…………..The new LIME POMPEII is just the right accessory!!………………..enjoy………………….much Love…………………….Louis
…………………By now it’s no secret that I love anything with a ethnic flare……………….The BEDOUIN NECKLACE & EARRING SET, J478051, follows that path. If a necklace isn’t all metal than naturally it’s all about the other materials used….usually BEADS……..I am always on the hunt for interesting beads and new ways to combine them…………I found FOUR interesting beads to combine with wonderful resin BLACK LINKS. There is a kind of large OVAL DROP which is a TRANSLUCENT BEAD. It has the look and color of TIGER EYE. Then there is a round faceted opaque bead that has the look of TURQUOISE. Two irregular shaped black beads frame the red elliptical bead……..It’s a very interesting combination to look at…….When I saw the first samples they were exactly as you see them with one difference. I couldn’t figure out what was disturbing me…..I liked all the elements very much, but there was just something that was disturbing me??…..Then I knew….All of the metal rings and chain was gold, and it stood out. IMHO the gold distracted from the beads and black links. I wanted them to be the main event, but the gold was competing…….so I had all of the gold metal plated BLACK………that made ALL of the DIFFERENCE!…Now the beads and links stood out!…..If you like to MIX as I do, then the LORD of the RING necklace in BLACK, J393304 is a must have.. I love the textures, and the rings and links go together like peanut butter and jelly…..ummm….it’s be years since I’ve had a P&J……As you can see in the photos this is a very versatile necklace. You will be pleasantly surprised to see how well it mixes with things you already own…….The colors have a South West vibe, so it will be easy to mix with American Indian jewelry….The earring is also in the black metal with a lever back, pierced only. It has a smaller faceted Turquoise bead with the Translucent Oval drop. It is very light weight and easy to wear…….If you have color bangles they would mix well with the BLACK ROLLER BRACELETS, J390569…………….The photos on your right show the FUCHSIA TIE DYE BOHO SKIRT, A306906, with the OFF the SHOULDER blouse, A306416, a great summer look……..The photos on the left show the BLACK CREPE GAUZE TUNIC, A302566, a LINEA ESSENTIAL piece, and great for layering. The pockets in the tunic make all the difference!. The STRIPE KIMONO, a new fabulous piece, was actually the inspiration for the Bedouin necklace!…..It’s due in JULY so more on that later…………In the mean time you will have fun exploring all of the things you have already to show off your new BEDOUIN NECKLACE & EARRING……………………………….enjoy…………………much Love…………………….Louis
…………………..It’s all in the DETAILS…….Beautiful color beads combined with BLACK METAL and BLACK RESIN LINKS, makes this an extra special piece. Each color is beautiful……………………..enjoy
…………………………….I LOVE AMBER………..We aren’t allowed to call anything Amber, not even faux Amber…….so HONEY it is. The “Tiger Eye” looking bead and the two Black irregular beads, plus all the black metal and Black Links are the same as the Blue necklace…….With the change of just two beads……..the Turquoise to the Amber, and the Red to something that looks like hardened Sap from a tree, make all the difference…..I know…sap from a tree??…..When you see the close up you’ll understand. It’s all very natural and organic………Again, the Black Lord of the Rings necklace and the Black Roller bracelets work PERFECTLY. The two outfits shown above, the tie dye skirt and the kimono couldn’t be more different…..but the HONEY BEDOUIN necklace works great with both……so have fun playing and discovering with your new Bedouin set……………………..enjoy………………………..much Love…………………………Louis
…………………………Now that you can see the beads up close, hopefully you can realize my comparison to SAP from a tree. As a kid I used to play with it, and roll it between my fingers. It was like glue. If not sap…..how would you describe it?????……………………….enjoy………………………….much Love……………………………..Louis
