January 2019 purchase reviews

WOW......ordered on monday afternoon......items are here now! that is super fast shipping QVC!

the sapphire blue elbow sleeve top and long open front cardigan are gorgeous. beautiful color and the wk of course is smooth, cool, and feels nice. definitely dress up or dress down pieces.

sizing on the long cardigan is the same as the other ones i have in black and red. sleeves hit at my wrist bones. sleeves are not fitted or tight. i ordered this in my regular size because i need the space in the hip area. he should do this in a rainbow of colors.....green, hot pink, navy, chocolate. i would probably buy it in every color. A287608

the elbow sleeve top is wonderful also. i would say some could possibly go down a size in this top. i did stick with my regular size and it is fine and a bit roomy in the chest area and in the upper arms. color matches perfectly to the long cardigan. hits right at middle of elbow for me, hits mid hip on me.  this is another one you will want in every color. i can probably use this top year round. it is not heavy at all. A347450

i think i will wait for a free shipping day and order the gray.

I received my purchases today too. I ordered the Ponte blazer in white and the floral blouse in black and white.  The ivory elbow sleeve  whisper knit went in my cart too.  Everything fits wonderfully.  However, I was surprised that the ponte blazer was wrinkled.  It was in a nice, large box but folded and wrapped in plastic. It will definitely need ironed.  I wish it was packaged nicer.  But, as usual everything else was wonderful. Great designs and great purchases!

That Linea whisper knit elbow sleeve top will quickly become my new favorite! I know that already. Hope he plans on lots more colors. I'll be wearing them all year round!! That's certainly a must-have in everyone's wardrobe.

elbow sleeves and 3/4 sleeves are my favorite sleeve types along with dolman sleeves.

i am hoping the elbow sleeve WK will become a staple in his line.

My sapphire slim leg pants arrived & I haven’t had a chance to try them on, but I did find a print top in my closet for them— A222275 in the blue pattern. One of the ‘blues’ works with these pants.

My other sapphire top V neck sweater & the red ruffle front floral blouse have shipped.

My order just shipped today.  It will be a long time before it makes it to the so-called Left Coast!

@CathySusan  I wanted to add the floral print blouse to my order but wanted to wait until someone had received it (yes, that's bad, I know).  Does it have darts?  Is it loose or somewhat fitted in the waist.

@JustJazzmom- I haven't received my sapphire pants yet but I can only imagine how beautiful that nice printed top you found while closet shopping will look.

@Luvitorleaveit1 I even think the bluebell floral tops (1 short sleeve 1 with a tank & long sleeved similar to the Safari blouses w tanks) would work with these pants. The colors are close on the floral tops.

@Nonametoday My red floral ruffle blouse should be in the mail, to me by Friday, Saturday at the latest. I will report back on the details. I just hope the flounces on the sleeves aren’t exaggerated like previous flounced tops he has done. I am trying the red to wear with the Jac blazer & pants from last year.

I don't own any of the bluebell tops and it looks like they are all gone in that color scheme but I'm thinking Bob Mackie may have some colorful tops that would look nice with these pants.
