…………………….MALACHITE…………is a marvelous Blue Green! ……There is no doubt about it………Columns of color are happening again! It had to happen…..after all the mad cap mixtures of unrelated prints and colors and accessories…..a CHIC & SOPHISTICATED COLUMN OF COLOR looks so RIGHT, SO REFRESHING!….. It looks POLISHED, MODERN & TIMELESS…..When Lisa speaks of Madison Ave, for me, it’s about women who dress in the most CURRENT and ELEGANT way. It’s not about trends or fads….that’s for the down town girls and that’s OK….but that’s about…..”disposable fashion”…. clothes that are in one minute and out the next…………..THIS way of dressing….. is the TOTAL OPPOSITE of disposable fashion…… Under the MALACHITE TOPPER, A238159, I have anchored each look above with a MALACHITE WK SWEATER, and there are many to choose from…. ..A237402 the cardigan, A237404 the tank, A237405 the classic jewel neck [shown above],and A237411 the V-neck tunic worn with the A237412 WK pencil skirt…..shown above….all work to create that COLUMN of COLOR. I think it’s a glorious way to look and it will work for anyone in any size……For evening, with all the gold and color jewelry, I recommend a beautiful Classic….SOLID GOLD….HIGH HEELED POINTY TOE PUMP….a lower heel will work too……As I said earlier….Jac and I were browsing through Bergdorfs and Jac wanted to see what was new in the shoe department…….whether they are for you or not….EVERY SHOE….except Chanel’s classics ………….were POINTY TOES & NOT ONE PLATFORM ANYWHERE!!!!! I have been telling the QVC models that for months, but they can’t go out and buy all new shoes….LOL….For the most HIGH FASHION and the MOST EXPENSIVE DESIGNER shoe lines….PLATFORMS ARE DEFINITELY OUT………it had to happen. I have also shown above the same MALACHITE TOPPER and WK sweaters worn with a simple BLACK PENCIL SKIRT and a BLACK PANT……………..DO NOT BE AFRAID OF COLOR………..I GUARANTEE COMPLIMENTS will be ABUNDANT! I must tell you, as hard as I try to match everything perfectly, the Malachite of the Topper and the Malachite WK sweaters are slightly off……but they still look GREAT together. If you tried to find a better match….you couldn’t……In the photos above, besides the new GLASS BEAD choker necklace and the cross….this time in the GOLD/EMERALD and SAPPHIRE combination, I have added the J284036, GOLD BEAD & EMERALD BEAD LONG NECKLACE which is avail to purchase NOW…..When these looks go on PM STYLE I know the necklaces will fly…..there aren’t that many of them!. When wearing an outfit as simple as this COLUMN of GREEN….it can take LAYERING ON THE JEWELRY…..If you haven’t noticed….I am not a minimalist……MORE is always BETTER!…………………………………….it’s a LOOK right off the RUNWAY!!………………………………………………………….
……………………………………………………………………………………………………………..enjoy…………….much Love…………………..Louis
Sheesh,
Were you able to order the Boucle Toppers already? I just went on the Q to order mine, but received the message “not available”. If you did order yours, please tell me how you did it?
Thank you!
Louis,
The Boucle Toppers are beautiful – if I can purchase them fast enough I want at least two!! You are amazing!!
Thank you,
I can’t believe you are talking about the column of color! When I got my first job out of college…nearly 30 years ago…I had a navy knit tunic top with matching pencil skirt. I LOVED THAT OUTFIT!!! It was such a classic and a head turner. You are right on the money with that look. You just can’t go wrong and yet it is so hard to find.
It’s funny you should say that about the shoes! I’ve resisted relentlessy against platforms. I just bought a pair of mirror finish gold sling backs with 4″ heels and my friend asked me where I would wear them–I said EVERYWHERE! Now she’s going to have to eat crow. Can I say they were a steal, too, because they were not platforms. Heehee.
Carol….they sound perfect!. Jac will have a pair on tonight and for PM Style, but they are a full pump
Louis, are my eyes deceiving me or am I seeing two sizes of Green and Gold beads on the mannequin?
Sheila
Your eyes are not deceiving you….there is the long necklace that I have doubled, that is avail now in the green, blue and red…..and there is the 5 strand choker with the glass beads and gold beads, which will be avail sometime in Oct….This is a must have!
Got it! Red and Green “coming home to mama” for sure…haven’t got any of the Lapis pieces—YET, but that topper and trousers picture just slayed me! Lord have mercy! With all the new clothes (only LDO) I’ve bought this season, I’m just gonna have to get dressed up every day and stand on the street corner just so everyone can see me—LOL—this could be a problem!
Sheila
On a street corner lookin’ good….be careful! I just saw all of the long bead necklaces are sold out….except green, and by tomorrow night I’m sure they will be gone too.
I agree Louis about the jewels – More is More, when less would be boring! But, I do have those days when it’s no makeup, white shirt and blue jeans with my hair in a high pony tail – not lazy, just sleek and clean feeling. Look forward to seeing you on the tele…….
That’s us 80% of the time!
