Good Morning readers, do you remember when I used to post about the Candy Apple popup shops in NOLA?  Haute Off The Rack even hosted a popup shop with Candy Apple in Covington at 311 Salon this past spring. Well, I’m super excited to announce that the Bienvenu sisters just opened their first Candy Apple boutique this past Friday, September 27th. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to make the grand opening, but yesterday I got to play dress up with Candace and Cassie Bienvenu at the new Candy Apple boutique in Metarie before going to the NOLAFW shows.  Their store looks absolutely amazing from the simple, yet modern lucite chairs and haircalf rug in the dressing rooms to the new logo designed by Krystal Bennett. I especially love how the accent wall in the back of the store complements the boutique perfectly. Oh, and did I mention that they have a huge bowl of Candy on the desk? How appropriate! I don’t think I even have to tell you about the clothes because I’m sure you can see in this post that Candy Apple has some gorgeous pieces right now! I wanted to take half of the store home with me!

All of the jackets and fur vests in this post are currently available at Candy Apple so if you like what you see, head on over to their new location in Old Metarie Village.  I know that Candace and Cassie will make your shopping experience at Candy Apple a sweet one!

Candy Apple Boutique is located on 701 Metarie Road, Suite 1B105, Metarie, LA

Good Morning readers, I hope you all had a great weekend. I’ve been super busy preparing for upcoming events and collaborations.   You’ll see some of those collaborations unfolding later this week.  As for today’s post, this is yet another great transitional look because I’m mixing a lightweight summer dress with my fall booties. One of the many joys of ankle boots is that you can wear them year round with dresses, skirts, shorts, jeans; you name it! I have quite a few pairs of ankle boots, but I especially love these taupe suede booties by Joie because of their level of comfort.  These boots are perfect for everyday wear because not only are they flattering on the legs, but they’re also durable, super comfortable and go with almost anything!

Good Morning readers, I hope you all had a nice weekend. I don’t know about you, but I’m beyond over this scorching southern heat. I know cool weather is far from near, but I can still fantasize about leather jackets, leggings and booties. Right?  Kind of like how guys start their own fantasy football teams, I’m starting my own fantasy fall wardrobe.  Currently, these are my top picks from H&M online, but I’m sure that is subject to change as new arrivals hit the web.  I’ll keep you updated and I’ll also be styling a few of these pieces on Haute Off The Rack once fall gets closer. However, you’ve already seen me style the khaki green twill jacket with a dainty white embroidered dress. (See outfit here). Pairing a fall jacket with your summer sun dresses is a great way to start transitioning your looks from summer to pre-fall.

P.S. Don’t forget there is still time to enter the H&M 50 States of Fashion contest!

All you have to do is Instagram a photo of your style using your favorite H&M pieces and hashtag #HMSHOPONLINE__ corresponding to the state in which you live:

Example: #HMShopOnlineLA for Louisiana

H&M will choose one lucky winner from each state who will receive a $250 giftcard and one grandprize winner will get a $1,000 giftcard and a trip for two to New York Fashion Week. Who wouldn’t love that! The contest begins today on August 1st and will end on August 21st at 7 pm. See more details here!

All the Instagram submissions will filter into the 50 States of Fashion site where viewers can “like” their favorite looks. Just make sure hashtag #HMShopOnline__!  Good luck everyone!   I’d love if you tagged me in your looks on Instagram so that I can see them too! Tag me @HauteOffTheRack!
