3 Top Notch H&M Style Ambassadors

press h&m

As you know, I was selected to represent Louisiana as a style ambassador in the H&M 50 States of Fashion Campaign to help launch H&M’s first US e-commerce site.  However, you may not know some of the other fabulous H&M style ambassadors.  So today I decided to share a few of my favorite H&M style bloggers with you as a reminder that today is the last day to enter the 50 States of Fashion Contest. Remember all 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!  See more details here!

I love how Sally kept her look chic and simple with black accessories and then added a hint of edge with her mirrored sunnies by Krewe Du Optic.  See more of Sally’s look here –> A Piece of Toast

What’s not to love about these military-inspired pants on Beth of Seersucker + Saddles?  I especially love how she added an unexpected twist to her look with white pumps and a polkadot top.  The white pieces brighten up the whole outfit.  Get all of her outfit details here–> Seersucker + Saddles

When styling black and white pieces, nothing complements the print more than a bright  pop of color. View Marissa’s outfit details here  –>  Style Cusp

Good Morning readers and welcome to Day 12 of Haute Off The Rack’s Island Getaway.  This is my second swimwear post with Think Twice Style and A Pinch of Lovely, and I have to say that this one is by far my favorite. I love all of the fun colors and considering that I’m leaving for a cruise to Mexico this weekend, I felt it appropriate to break out the maracas! You know how much I love to bring out the maracas to celebrate with.  We pretty much laughed the entire photo shoot while dancing as I shook the maracas.

Packing Tips:  If you aren’t 100 percent confident about having your legs exposed while walking around in a bathing suit, pack a few high-waisted maxi skirts to wear as swimsuit coverups. If you don’t have any maxi skirts, I highly recommend this Mumu skirt because it comes in a variety different prints and colors and it’s wrinkle-free, which makes it easy to pack.

Head on over to Think Twice Style and A Pinch of Lovely to see their outfit details and check back next week to see more swimwear!

P.S. I have to give a little shout out to Elle boutique in New Orleans, La for helping me find this Mumu skirt and for their excellent customer service!  They were so quick in responding to all of my emails and really made me feel like I was a priority to them.

Good morning readers and welcome to Day 9 of Haute Off The Rack’s Island Getaway.  Krystal of A Pinch of Lovely and Sarah of Think Twice Style and I have bravely volunteered to bring you some of this season’s “hautest” swimwear trends starting with the classic black + white + gold look.  I usually can’t wear black during the summer without a pop of color somewhere so I used my my colorful Tart wrap as a bathing suit cover up.  As for my bathing suit, I wouldn’t recommend laying out in a monokini considering how your tan lines would turn out but it’s still a great piece to have when you’re feeling a little self-conscious about wearing a bathing suit in front of people.  The monokini is basically just a more fun and flirty one-piece with cutouts so if you’ve been wanting to try something new or if you’re not quite ready for a bikini but want to ditch the one-peice, I highly recommend the monokini!
