Good Morning readers, what do you think of all the textures I’ve got going on here? We’ve got suede, calf hair, leather, embossed leather, fringe, flannel… and so on. I personally love all of these luxe textures mixed together, and I especially love how the casual plaid shirt paired with this look gives it that unexpected twist. I’m huge fan of adding a surprise twist to an outfit.  In this case, I used plaid to contrast with all of the sleek textures. Speaking of plaid, if you’ve been looking for the perfect plaid shirt to add to your wardrobe this Fall, The Mix in Mandeville has got you covered. They have a great selection of moderately priced plaid and flannel shirts right now. If you don’t live in the area, they are happy to ship nationwide! As for suede and leather jackets, make sure to visit Candy Apple Boutique in Metairie!  They have this season’s “hautest” jacket trends for under $150! I’m about to be late for an appointment this morning so I’m going wrap things up quickly! These are the last but not least few things I want to mention:

The Krewe Du Optic Sunglasses: Do these mirrored shades not add the cool factor to this look or what! I just feel 100 times cooler every time I put them on!

The Sterline Silver Knuckleduster by Reagan Charleston: I love this statement ring and it so different than anything else I’ve seen this season! It is def. a jewelry must-have!

The Suede & Leather Leggings: No Words!!!! Well, except they’re from Zara and only $35! I know! Right??!

Good Morning readers, the surprise is that since I sold out of all 25 Haute For NOLA tees in the first 4 days, we decided to restock them and they have finally arrived. So if you weren’t able to get one from the first shipment, here is your chance!! I have already pre-sold half of this shipment so make sure to contact me at Jenn.hauteofftherack@gmail.com to purchase yours today.

In case you missed it last time, here is a little recap about the design of the tee:

This past August I collaborated with Katie Dumestre and Rachel Adams of The Elizabeth Chronicles to create a stylish tee for my readers inspired by New Orleans, high fashion and of course Haute Off The Rack.  For those of you who aren’t familiar with TEC’s tee designs, Katie and Rachel create casual, designer-influenced tees with a hint of local flair such as the Crescent City/Chanel tee that I styled in my recent post, Crescent City Style.

For Haute Off The Rack’s tee design, we went for an Hermes-inspired image to emphasize the “H” in “Haute” once I decided on the phrase “Haute For NOLA.”  It didn’t take me long to choose the black and gold color scheme considering that the shirts would be ready just in time for football season. I figured they would be great to wear for Saints’ games to show our love for NOLA.  I hope you like our tee!  Contact me at  Jenn.hauteofftherack@gmail.com to purchase your tee today! Also, they will soon be available to purchase at Candy Apple Boutique in Metarie.

P.S. When washing your tee, do not throw it in the dryer! Lay flat to dry. The heat is too harsh on the gold foil.

Good Morning readers, Lola James Jewelry and I decided to give you all little hump day treat by offering you a chance to win one of their adorable Guilty Pleasure Initial necklaces that I’m wearing in today’s post. Speaking of today’s post, this is the perfect kind of transitional outfit to wear as we slowly welcome in the cooler weather. It’s as if  sleeveless cardigans were made  just for Louisiana because they’re the perfect weight and style for our weather.  You can even wear one over your sweater as an accessory once it gets colder outside. The one I’m wearing from Lmae Boutique today is a great neutral color that will allow you to easily throw on with any of your outfits and top of that it’s also super light and airy to wear year round.

Have a great day!
