I know many of you have been patiently waiting for me to post the NEW WHISPER KNITS. The first style is A229715, THE CLASSIC CARDIGAN. As I have explained before, these will be sold “ON LINE ONLY”…..the same way I sell the jewelry. However, I will be “showing” them on models whenever I can…..for example….if I am selling a blazer, pant or skirt, I will put one of the new sweaters with it so you will see how they look on. I do think the “sneak peek” photos are very accurate. The colors may be slightly off, but you can’t help that with pictures. I can only say they will be just as good or better than what you will see on the Q Linea web site. ……….There will be ……………..6 STYLES…………in 6 COLORS…..for a total of …..36 OPTIONS………..I call these colors the “FIESTA COLORS” and they are…………………LIME…………..AQUA…………HOT PINK…………NECTARINE……….NAVY………….BLACK………All six styles will be in these same six colors…….The cardigan above was styled after the……….A217628 cardigan……..so…….if you were pleased with the fit and look of that cardigan, you will be happy with this new, extremely similar version! Likewise, if the original cardigan did not work for you, this probably won’t either. The length of this cardigan for the XS is approx. 26 1/2 to 27 inches. For me this is an ESSENTIAL, SEASON-LESS PIECE. ….to be collected and saved. You already know the virtues of Whisper Knit………….how soft it is to the touch, how well it washes and wears, and how well it packs. These are like POTATO CHIPS……….you simply can not have ONE! Remember, all of the other pieces will come in the same colors, so you can have sets if you like…… mixing the colors is great fun [aqua with lime, navy and nectarine, black and hot pink etc.]………. or use them as accent pieces. The sweaters will be avail. sometime in MID APRIL……I do not have an exact date for on line only products. Previewing them early will give you plenty of time to decide how you want to match and mix them……make a chart with the styles along the top and the colors down the side and check off which colors you want in which styles……this may help to give you an overall picture of what you are planning. I will suggest………..when the time comes and they are avail for purchasing…….don’t wait too long to order…..I have a feeling they will be gone quicker than the FISH PENDANT…………….LOL……………….enjoy………….much Love……………..Louis

The A214114, Baby Cheetah Print Top, has arrived and is ready for purchasing……. if you haven’t already. I have  introduced two new colors this year………OLIVE………&……CHILI PEPPER………………..now I am bringing you another new color……………SMOKY GREY……………For those of you who ask ….”is grey really a spring color”…………just take a look at the E.F. catalog. There is more to the spring pallet  than bright and pastel colors. For me, there is nothing more chic than BLACK, GREY and WHITE……….the white to give the black and grey contrast and EDGE….BLACK and or SILVER are the perfect accessories!……………Returning are the ………………PERFECTLY PINK……….&………….BLUE………….The Blue with my new INDIGO DENIM SKIRT and my new WHITE JEAN JACKET…..were made for each other………..you simply can’t go wrong. The PERFECTLY PINK top takes on two different characters just by changing a BLACK BOHO with a PERFECTLY PINK BOHO. Two great summer looks….one for office….one for play……………scroll down for the other returning color………..all beautiful………………….

A214114, is the BABY CHEETAH PRINT TOP. This is the 4th or 5th year this top has been reordered, so I have to assume many of you like it and are collecting the new colors as they appear. The fabric is my POLYESTER/SPANDEX blend jersey. For those of you who swear off polyester, this is not for you. For those of you who have tried this fabric in one or more of the five tops [all reordered], and dresses that I have made in this fabric, you know its’ virtues. It is light weight, washable, does not wrinkle, easy to pack and takes very little room, and for most of you….very cool to wear. Three of the colors shown above are returning colors…………NATURAL……………..OLIVE………..CHILI PEPPER…………………The Olive and Chili Pepper are new this year. For all of the details on this top….they are to be found at the QVC Linea site. This is a top you can definitely wear 12 months of the year………..ANIMAL PRINTS never go out of fashion……they may have peeks and valleys but they are always in style.

……………………………………………………………………enjoy…..much Love…..Louis

The TIE DYE SWEATER REORDER is BACK in all of its ORIGINAL colors plus the addition of the new…………………TAN & PEACH………………………..The tan reminds me of wet BEACH SAND, and the peach drifts to the CORAL side. It is a beautiful soft, neutral combination. The contrast GROS GRAIN RIBBON is dyed to coordinate with the peach and the little gumdrop buttons are tan. Just a reminder…..this is an engineered print…..meaning the ENTIRE SWEATER is PRINTED in one process……so everything MATCHES and each sweater is exactly the same. What you see above is exactly what you will get. There are no blotches placed on a delicate area….if you get my DRIFT………This sweater is a cool 100% COTTON and is perfect for bike riding in the Hamptons, Martha’s Vineyard, Malibu or along the lake…..in other words …..the PERFECT SUMMER SWEATER! I have it shown with the TAUPE BOHO SKIRT, which is a terrific coordinate…….the new WHITE BOHO will be perfection.  A pair of chinos, white crops or shorts will be all you really need to look ready for spring /summer. I also like this color because it is different enough from the others…..that you won’t mind having two…………….or three……….they are that special, and you certainly won’t see yourself coming and going!……. I suggest , if you are new to this sweater, that you read all of the details and comments on the QVC LINEA SITE. There are 35 reviews………….34 are 5 STARS………..and one person gave it ONE *……….go figure…..you can’t please everyONE! Scroll down for pictures of all the original colors it is still being offered in…………………..Enjoy………………much Love………………Louis
