Good Morning readers, I apologize for my lack of blog posts lately, but I’m currently in California with my family because my grandmother passed away.  Thank you all for your your patience and support and for my keeping my family in your prayers.

About the look: I recently collaborated with Abbey of District Dress Up and Gigi New York to showcase some of the new handbags from their fall 2013 collection.  Since, Abbey is originally from Louisiana, we decided to give Gigi some southern hospitality and took our bags straight down to New Orleans for some good ole’ fashioned  iced-coffee and beignets near the French Quarter.

For this look, I am carrying the Hayden Satchel and Abbey is wearing the Elle cross-body bag. The Hayden Satchel can also dual as a cross-body bag by just attaching its detachable/adjustable strap. This bag is perfect for me because it’s spacious enough to fit my planner, my wallet, a little notebook, my phone and some makeup with plenty extra room to spare. There is also large pocket on the back and another roomy interior pocket beneath the flap for my convenince. I like to keep my phone and keys in the back pocket so I can easily find them without having to dig through my entire purse.  Also, I can’t forget to mention the real reason that I fell in love with this bag, which of course is its gorgeous shade of emerald green and it’s sleek embossed texture.  The Hayden is the perfect mix of chic, sophisticated and masculine which meshes perfectly with this season’s menswear-inspired trend.

If you liked our NOLA-insipred tees by the The Elizabeth Chronicles, get super excited because I have partnered up with tee designers, Katie Dumestre and Rachel Adams of TEC to bring you the first Elizabeth Chronicles and Haute Off The Rack designer tees. I couldn’t be more excited!  Make sure to follow me on Instagram @HauteOffTheRack for sneak peeks.

Now head over to District Dress Up for more details on the Elle cross-body bag and the rest of her look!

P.S. Stay tuned for my next look with Abbey of District Dress next week!
