Mastering The Sleeveless Outerwear Trend

 Considering that I live in Louisiana where the weather changes at the blink of an eye, I’m a huge fan of the sleeveless outwear trend! Not only are sleeveless jackets/coats versatile and practical for winter in the south, but it also gives your look a super chic vibe. I’ve worn this sleeveless trench with flares, skinny jeans, dresses, skirts, rompers, you name it! Scroll to the bottom to see all the different ways to wear sleeveless jackets including today’s post too.

Hi everyone and Happy Sunday! I hope you all enjoyed the weekend. I can’t believe Thanksgiving is this week, but I so excited to spend time with my family and stuff my face with turkey and dressing. As for today’s outfit, I styled my sleeveless trench with a nude mock neck sweater, ripped skinny jeans and a pair of lace up heels for an edgy chic look. I completed the outfit with a hair calf leopard clutch and plenty of Julie Vos jewels. I love how the merlot lace up heels added a splash of color to this all neutral look and complemented the leopard clutch beautifully.

For today’s look, I paired my jewels with an easy all black look and topped it off with this gorge blush fur jacket from Cella’s Boutique. This is such an easy look to style and it’s a great alternative to the little black dress. As for the blush jacket, I can’t wait to wear it over little sequin dresses for the holidays. It’s also perfect for adding a hint of glam to a simple outfit like I did with today’s holiday party look.

Hi everyone, I’m so excited to finally announce a little something that I’ve been working on for the holidays with White Elephant Designs. You all know how much I love my morning coffee so I’ve been dreaming of my own signature Haute Off The Rack mug pretty much since I started my blog! I’m so happy that the opportunity has come along and right in time for the holidays. I know it will make a great gift because I know I can’t be the only one who likes my coffee “haute,” right!?

Good Morning readers, as you all know, it’s officially cold outside in Louisiana so I thought I’d kick off the day with my favorite cable knit poncho this season! I’m wearing it in the oatmeal color right now, but it’s also available in black and grey too! It’s so warm and cozy and looks super chic with skinny jeans or leggings. Also, I haven’t tried it yet, but I bet it looks cools with wide leg jeans too. Call the store if you don’t see your size online! –> (504) 304-8840

International House New Orleans Hotel Review

Hi everyone, as promised I’m sharing my recent staycation at the International House New Orleans Hotel with you today.  I recently stayed there for a fun getaway with Nikki of My Style Diaries and Kristina Britt Photography. I love the location because it’s within walking distance of the French Quarter and a ton of restaurants, but it’s still far enough away from all the hustle and bustle. We were able to walk to Tableau for dinner, Salon by Sucre for tea and a quick Uber ride to Cane & Table.

IH hotel offers an on-the-go breakfast selection and coffee in their lobby, but we arrived in New Orleans with a strong craving for beignets and District Donuts so we made a quick donut run and picked up a variety of delicious treats to bring back to our room.
