Good Morning readers, do you have an outfit you love so much that you literally have to force yourself not to wear it every day?  For me, this is that outfit! I could live in my mother denim flares, a comfy cream blouse, a long necklace and a pair of platform wedges.  It’s so bad that even my boyfriend asks “Are you really wearing that again today?” That doesn’t stop me though. I wear it anyway! Ha! What outfit do you wish you could wear every day?

**About the necklace: The necklace I am wearing in this post was actually custom made for me by Donna Guidry of Bijoutiere Jewelry. It is a gorgeous fire agate pendant with pearls, coin pearls and pyrite on a handmade wire chain.  If you are interested in purchasing one for yourself, please feel free to email me at Jenn.hauteofftherack@gmail.com.**

Good Morning readers, how gorgeous is this vintage handmade jewelry by Lisa Ramirez Cortese?  Don’t they make you want to go digging through your grandmother’s old jewelry chests?  These stunning cameo pieces are my favorite picks by Lisa.  Keep your eye out to see how I style them on Haute Off The Rack.

 Jewelry Designer, Lisa Ramirez Cortese travels nationwide searching for the most rare vintage cameos, stones and pendants and uses them to create lavish pieces of jewelry at her own home in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.  She also receives exclusive vintage items from places all over the world like most recently Israel, Argentina, France and Great Britain to create her beautiful modern works of art.  I’m not going to spill too much information about Lisa though because I have a little surprise for you soon on Haute Off The Rack featuring an interview with the deisgner herself!  However, I will tell you that she will be selling special Mother’s Day jewelry tonight at Victoria’s Toy Station from 6 to 8 pm on 5466 Government St. in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.  You can also follow her on Facebook (here) to see more of her amazing work.

Good Morning readers!  I hope you all have been having a fabulous weekend! Mine has been wonderful because I actually had the weekend off to help my little sister get ready for prom and spend some time with my boyfriend and family.

Anyway,  I’m so excited that we now carry Virgins Saints and Angels jewelry at Park Lane boutique in our Lafayette location.  This line is just to die for!! We recently hosted a V.I.P. Open House party at Park Lane and the entire staff wore VSA jewelry. Well, let me tell you that we were literally taking the jewelry off our bodies left and right for the customers to try on!  I think we sold half the collection that night.  Not kidding!  If you aren’t familiar with this unique handmade jewelry inspired by Guadalupe and Mexican folklore, click (here) for a little info.  Also, if you’re interested in purchasing any of the jewelry, please call us at (337) 534-8682 or shoot me an email at jenn.hauteofftherack@gmail.com! The last photo of necklaces above the Kardashians are my three favorite pieces!  You’ll be seeing those in a quite of a few my outfit posts.  In fact, here are two you might have seen already:  Printed High Low Skirt and Plain and Simple! 

One more thing!!  I am so thrilled that Mercedes Hart, the voice behind VSA_designs’ tweets, facebook and blog, has added me to to the list to view the sneak peaks of each new VSA collection for my blog.  You know what that means…..You’re on the list too!!!  So you’ll get to see all of the new VSA jewelry collections before they hit the stores!!

P.S. Here is a picture of my sister after we got her all ready for her junior prom!  Let’s hope that she doesn’t kill me for posting these pictures of her!  By the way, today is her 17th birthday so make sure to wish her a Happy Birthday!
