Good Morning readers, I know I don’t normally post on the weekends, but today is an exception since it’s Haute Off The Rack’s second birthday! These past two years have been such an amazing journey with Haute Off The Rack.  Through blogging I’ve made so many new friends and entered into a world of endless opportunities.  Thank you all so much for following along with me on this fun little venture of mine that has now become a part of my every day life. I’m especially thankful for all the photographers and WordPress web masters that I’ve worked with as well of my friends and family who have supported me the whole way. You all know who you are!

I hope that this year will be just as wonderful as the last two, but I know I’m already off to a good start with New York Fashion Week up ahead. What better way to start off the year than a trip to New York Fashion Week with some of my favorite bloggers: Brighton The Day, Living in Color Print and District Dress Up! A Pinch of Lovely will be joining us for the weekend too! We have some super exciting shows and brand meetings planned as well as some awesome giveaways while were in NY. Also, make sure to follow along on social media as we attend shows and Fall 2014 presentation collections to stay in the know for upcoming seasons!

Again, thank you a million for reading Haute Off The Rack. I hope you continue to follow along for style advice, fashion inspiration and to stay up to date with all of the “hautest” up and coming designers and trends. Have a great weekend!

What’s Haute Now: Flash Lens Shades

Good Morning readers, today I’m starting a new series on Haute Off The Rack called What’s Haute Now?  Each week I’ll feature a different topic-  a person, product, brand, accessory, item of clothing or place.  I’m going to keep you in-the-know of what is on my “haute” list!

I know I tried this a week or so ago with the At-Home Manicure post, but that was before I accidentally deleted my whole blog. Yea, that really happened! If you ever see a button on the back end of a website that reads “Restore to Default,” do NOT press it!!! I repeat, do NOT press that button.  It could easily ruin three whole days of your life especially if you don’t have all of your content and coding backed up!

Anyway, back to these awesome shades… Flash lens sunnies are all the rage this season. I know by now that you’ve probably seen my Ray bans all over my blog and Instagram.  They have quickly become one of my top favorite accessories. I prefer the matte gold, blue mirror aviator style shades best. However, there are plenty of different frames, colors and styles to choose from. Scroll through my blog to see all of the different ways that I’ve worn my flash lens shades. I love how they add a pop of color to my outfits! I bet you never thought of adding color to your wardrobe with a pair of sunglasses! Am I right?

Good Morning readers, I don’t know about you, but I’m dreaming of warmer sunnier days today while we’re under this winter storm warning here in Louisiana. Although, I’m not gonna lie I don’t totally hate the fact that I didn’t have to go into work today and that I’m cooped up inside on the couch next to the fire place with my coffee in hand.

Anyway, for today’s post I wanted to show you how I paired my blue and green accessories with my my flash lens sunglasses to make the color of the handbags pop. Here I’m wearing a simple pair of flare jeans with a grey sweater and as you can see the accessories totally complete the look. For the blue cross body bag I wore my blue flash lens shades and for the emerald green bag I wore my green flash lens. I how the mirrored sunnies pull out the colors of the handbags and make more of a statement than just a normal pair of shades.

Good Morning readers, yes that is me roaring like the tiger in the photo above. Today I’ve styled this cozy graphic sweatshirt by The Elizabeth Chronicles two different ways! For my first look, I paired the sweatshirt with pointy toe pumps, my Marc by Marc Jacobs Hiller Hobo, my green flash lens raybans and finished the outfit by draping a leather jacket over it.

For my second look, I went more casual with a pair of flats, but still fun with the vintage leopard print clutch and blue lens shades! I love how how the sweet ballet flats add an expected twist to the coated skinnies with zipper details.

I absolutely love this graphic tiger sweatshirt! I’ve only styled it two ways here, but there are many other ways to wear it! How would you style this graphic sweatshirt? Shop more designer-inspired graphic tees and tanks by my favorite local tee designers The Elizabeth Chronicles !

Check out the second way I styled it below!
