Are the Bluebell tops you mentioned vintage pieces too? I'm drawing a blank yet am curious as to what you're referring to. TIA. 

I'm wondering if some of the blue ombre tops will work with the sapphire pant too. Mine, plus the light grey, will be delivered later today. Playtime.

You're such a luv! Thanks so much for posting the above links. My brain fog is now gone and see that I do remember those two items. Both very nice and hopefully nicely compliment the new sapphire blue.

I put the new pants on & they fit nicely through the hips & waist with the proper length for my legs. No shortening needed!

It looks very nice with that blue geometric top (A222275).

Yes, the blouse has bust darts.  It is not tight at the waist.  It has side slits that make it somewhat loose, but not baggy, just comfortable.  I like the fit.  I hope that helps.

@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.

@JustJazzmom  I too am wanting the black to wear with the Jac blazer and white pants from a while back (I have so many pairs of LDO white pants and black that it is hard to recall when I purchased them).

Receivedtge sapphire pants  long cardi and elbow sleeve sweater so pleased . Also same pieces in gray and love the. Pants but they are much darker than the knits which seem more like t shirt type material Deciding whether to return the knits. Would appreciate your input

I can't believe the fast shipping!

Today received the window pane jacket w/lace and the floral blouse in black/white, and both are fabulous! 

The jacket is a bit weightier than I had imagined but perfect, unique and wonderful with the feminine so expensive-looking lace on the menswear-ish jacket, fits great too, not too big.  I ordered the smaller of my two possible sizes, a L.

The blouse was a surprise as well, so incredibly flattering, not big and boxy, nips in at the waist and has side slits to accomodate hips.  The ruffle is so lovely and I actually like the print.  The sleeves are just right too, and this will look great on its own or under a blazer.  It is a big winner for me.

I too waited for reviews to order the elbow sleeve sweater to see about sizing, so I'll be getting that as well in basic black, something I know I will wear very often spring, summer, fall.

The blue bell tops are from not last summer, but previous summer. The sweater goes beautifully with the blue composition jacket from the the time frame.  I do not think Blue bell will go with the new saphire color at all.

Thank you @culebra, I appreciate the info and suggestion of pairing the blue with the composition jacket. I have the animal print jacquard jacket in blue that I'll pull out for a match too. No item number right now but if anyone wants it let me know.

I had the weirdest thing happen with my deliveries both yesterday AND today. Three of six packages which showed as delivered yesterday but were not there. Today the same thing happened with another package. Nothing like this has ever happened in all the years I've shopped here. My Sapphire WK duster was one of the mia items along with a shadow print floral blouse and two Laurie Felt tsv jeans. I called CS and was told to wait till Wednesday before they'd  credit or replace. Oddly each of these three separate pkgs had the same tracking number. I was expecting another delivery today and hoped these items would magically appear. Nope. But, but another piece, the new WK elbow length sweater showed delivered but was not! I think my blood pressure went up. UPS was useless as any claim must be initiated by the vendor. Called CS again. An absolute pro answered and immediately resent my items sans the Sapphire WK. This has sold out in my size. Have you ever heard of a story like this? I've had the occasional missing item, usually USPS related, but mostly a mismarked size or the wrong garment being sent has been the druther my experiences. As rattled as I was earlier, I'm dumbfounded and can only shake my head in disbelief and disappointment over losing the long Sapphire cardi.
