Linen Shirt Dress For Summer

Hi everyone, I hope you all enjoyed the beautiful weekend. If you follow me on Instagram then you know I was the maid of honor in my best friend’s wedding over the weekend. I’m so grateful that everything turned out perfectly as planned!

Anyway, for today’s look I’m featuring an easy, linen shirt dress styled for summer and the best part is that it’s currently marked down to half off! It gets even better though because this beautiful blush cross body by Vince Camuto is currently 25% OFF at Macy’s too! Remember how I styled in last week’s post, “Wardrobe Essential: Chambray Shirt.” Speaking of last week’s Vince Camuto outfit, the chambray shirt and platform sandals you all loved are on sale too!

For sizing reference, I’m wearing the size small in the dress and I actually got mine hemmed since I’m only 5’1 so it actually comes a little longer than this.

How To Protect Your Hair Against Humidity

Hi everyone, I hope you’re all having a great week so far and if not, at least we’re only one more day from Friday, right?! I’m actually really looking forward to the weekend because it’s been a long week for me and I’m also the maid of honor in best friend’s wedding on Saturday. I’ve been checking the weather all week and I’m so happy that Saturday’s forecast has drastically changed from scattered thunderstorms to all day sunshine. Let’s just hope it stays that way! As for the bridal luncheon and rehearsal dinner tomorrow night…well, that’s a different story. It’s supposed to storm all day and we all know how great rain and humidity is for our hair!

Fortunately, I know just how to prevent frizz and how to protect your hair against humidity. I recently partnered with Living Proof to try out their No Frizz Nourishing Oil at the perfect time to help keep my hair smooth and frizz-free no matter the weather. I’ve already tested out the product and found that it left my hair feeling softer, smoother and overall easier to work with.

Follow these four easy steps for my hair protection against humidity routine:

1) First, I start with Living Proof’s No Frizz Shampoo and Conditioner and then I follow with the No Frizz weightless styling spray.

2) I have super fine hair so I only apply one to two pumps of the No Frizz Nourishing Oil to  my hair to help condition and hydrate my locks. Thankfully, it’s super lightweight and build-able, so it doesn’t weigh down my hair or leave it feeling greasy. When it comes to women with courser hair, you can always add more as needed. This product actually comes highly recommended for those with course hair, but is not limited to other hair types.

3) Next, I follow with the No Frizz humidity sheild spray once my hair is dry. That stuff is vital for hair survival in the Louisiana humidity!

4) Lastly, I finish with Living Proof’s Control hairspray. Sometimes, I add a little dry shampoo to my roots for some added texture depending on the look I’m going for.

Wardrobe Essential: Chambray Shirt

If you follow along with Haute Off The Rack regularly then I’m sure you’ve heard me say that a chambray shirt is essential to your year round wardrobe countless times. However, you don’t have to stop at the basic chambray button down, you can also throw in pieces like this Vince Camuto sleeveless chambray top from Macy’s. I especially love the lace up detail on the back of the top and the fact that it’s sleeveless for those extra hot days here in the south.

When it comes to styling the top, it looks great with white jeans and shorts in the summer and will easily pair well with fall colors too. I know we’re quite a ways away from fall, but I just wanted to point out how this top will fit into you wardrobe all year long. Scroll through this post to see how I styled the top for a casual summer look with my white denim, blush saddle bag and tan heels which are all available at Macy’s too.
