Good Morning readers, today I’ve teamed up with The Outlet Collection at Riverwalk to show you how to take your look from day to night for holiday parties without being able to stop at home to get ready. Whether you’re at the office all day and heading to a Christmas party after work or you’re out running errands all day and then straight to a holiday event, these tips will have you looking fab in a “haute” minute!

Tip 1: Pack a fancy clutch, statement jewelry and a pair of heels in your work bag to change into for the evening!

Tip 2: Wear a versatile piece like black pants, a skirt or a little black dress that can go easy day to night. For this look, I changed out of my flats, leggings and sweater, but I really could have worn the little black dress all day and just changed my shoes, jewelry and handbag. I just wanted to show you two ways to wear this beautiful white fur vest!

Tip 3: Apply a bold lipstick and an extra coat of mascara before you head out the door!

Black Friday: Open 6am-10pm | @RiverwalkNOLA

Good Morning readers, I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. Today, I want to talk about how to wear cropped sweaters.  There are a few ways to wear them in the winter. You can wear a cropped sweater with a high waisted skirt or pants with a little hint of skin showing or you can wear a slightly longer cropped top that doesn’t show any skin at all like this one (here).  However, my favorite way to wear a cropped sweater lately is layered over a long button down shirt.  Remember when I wore a dark grey cropped sweater just like this with a white oversized shirt here–> The Debut of the Jenn Bucket Bag

To avoid looking bulky or boxy up top when layering, you need to try on a few different sizes and styles of cropped sweaters to see which style works best for you. Some of you may look great in a snug tight sweater while others rock a more loose fitting style. It really all depends on your shape and preference. Since I have a short torso I went with a size petite small for a more cropped fitted look. The regular small was too long on me and hit at an awkward spot on my stomach, which made me look boxy.  Try a few out and let me know what you think! I highly recommend trying the style shown in today’s post. As you can see below, I liked it so much that I bought it in two colors!

Keep your eye out next week to see how to wear a cropped sweater with high waisted skirts!
