I have chosen the LINEA PONTE WINE MAXI SKIRT, A239318, to be my last color presented…….because……I wanted to illustrate how VERSATILE a COLOR can be. I know some of you will automatically look for the matching top, but that limits the wide range of possibilities ………so………..I took the exact same accessories…………..THE CROSS NECKLACE in WINE, J271859…………..THE COORDINATING STATION NECKLACE in the same WINE, J271861….. a wine CROCODILE BELT…and dressed the form with the WINE PONTE SKIRT and all the same accessories….except…..I changed the color and styles of the WK SWEATERS………………The result is the “LOOKS”….look totally different! This, my friends, is an exercise in how to play with………………COLOR………….I used the DARK MALLARD BLUE WK TURTLE NECK, A72448, and the A237387, TOPAZ SHAWL COLLAR SWEATER, and created two fabulous looks……………………DO NOT BE AFRAID TO MIX COLORS…………….YOU do yourselves a great disservice when you feel insecure unless it matches……..I love that COLUMN OF COLOR as much as you do, but you also want to get as much wear from your clothes as possible……that requires you to MIX as well as MATCH. I can list a slew of colors I would put with this wine skirt but I’d rather hear from you….what colors you would mix with the wine. It doesn’t matter if it’s classic like OLIVE, or outrageous like TURQUOISE………….and I could use the same accessories as I have above and it would all still work….so imagine all the possibilities when you change colors and accessories……………………………………………..the mind boggles……………………………………but that’s the FUN OF DRESSING!!!!!!……………………………………………………………..
…………………………………………………………………………HAPPY HOLIDAYS………………………..much Love…………………………………………………………………..Louis
I think workhorse is the apt descriptor for how this is going to work in my wardrobe. I’m a big fan of the Linea Ponte collection, and was hoping for more bottoms. I love a maxi skirt, the tulip shaping and the pull on style. I could not ask for any better skirt. That being said, I’m getting all the colors, but hope if a reorder comes along, we can get this in your gorgeous walnut.
Happy holidays!

Wow, it’s gorgeous with my topaz sweater!! Now I must get this, I love the length, great for the season.
I have been waiting for this Wine maxi skirt for years! This is a no brainer, must have for me! Fantastic Louis! And I have the Topaz sweater already, and the wine necklaces, so I will be set for fall 2014 with this skirt purchase. Thank You!
