Good Morning readers, it’s finally finally Friday!! Thank goodness! I hope you all have fun things planned for the weekend and that you’re enjoying this slightly cooler weather outside. Speaking of cooler weather, this gorgeous fur vest is back in stock at Candy Apple Boutique! It’s perfect to throw over a tank and jeans or a sleeveless dress during this in between cold weather period.  Then you can layer it over sweaters and blouses once we really start to feel that crisp cold air. I’m always a fan of luxe fur during the winter, and this one is such a great price. Trust me you won’t be disappointed!

P.S. How gorgeous is the Gold Plated Tiger Cuff from Reagan Charleston’s newest collection? It’s one of my favorite pieces from her fall line.  You’ll be seeing more of her collection soon on my live segment with WBRZ News next Tuesday, October 22!

Good morning readers, this Sunday afternoon I’ll be attending the fourth annual BubbleQ fundraiser. This event is designed to help raise money for the New Orleans Jazz Institute, which provides free music education for the children of New Orleans, Louisiana. At the event, you can enjoy BBQ and almost every kind of champagne while listening to New Orleans style Jazz music.

Sounds like a great event, right? Now, the question is… what do I wear to an afternoon champagne soiree? I was stuck thinking about the perfect outfit to sip champagne in while listening to jazz music until the answer finally hit me, Camilyn Beth of course!!   Why didn’t I think of that before! I mean Camilyn Beth should be the first things that comes to mind when you’re searching for a special occasion dress. All of her designs are beautifully made with love and elaborate detail.  I love how all of her pieces are timeless with a little flair of sequins or ruffles or an open back.

“Camilyn Beth believes that a girl feels her best and most confident when she is loved. Each garment’s purpose is to be more than just fabric, between the local craftsmanship, the story behind the design, to the inspirational quote sewn into each piece, the Camilyn Beth girl will feel the love when wearing CB.” -www.camilynbeth.com

My current favorites by Camilyn Beth are the Gabrielle dress the Go Go dress! Which CB dress do you fancy? You can purchase any of her dresses via her website or locally at Hattie Sparks on 714 Adams St. in New Orleans. So if you’re stuck on what to wear to a special event soon, Camilyn Beth is your gal!

Below is a photo of me, Camilyn Beth and Krystal Bennett at Hattie Sparks boutique during Shop Your City Day in New Orleans this past September. We got to chat her with about her recent dress success and her gorgeous new fall collection. She’s even sweeter and more beautiful in person!

Good Morning readers, what do you think of all the textures I’ve got going on here? We’ve got suede, calf hair, leather, embossed leather, fringe, flannel… and so on. I personally love all of these luxe textures mixed together, and I especially love how the casual plaid shirt paired with this look gives it that unexpected twist. I’m huge fan of adding a surprise twist to an outfit.  In this case, I used plaid to contrast with all of the sleek textures. Speaking of plaid, if you’ve been looking for the perfect plaid shirt to add to your wardrobe this Fall, The Mix in Mandeville has got you covered. They have a great selection of moderately priced plaid and flannel shirts right now. If you don’t live in the area, they are happy to ship nationwide! As for suede and leather jackets, make sure to visit Candy Apple Boutique in Metairie!  They have this season’s “hautest” jacket trends for under $150! I’m about to be late for an appointment this morning so I’m going wrap things up quickly! These are the last but not least few things I want to mention:

The Krewe Du Optic Sunglasses: Do these mirrored shades not add the cool factor to this look or what! I just feel 100 times cooler every time I put them on!

The Sterline Silver Knuckleduster by Reagan Charleston: I love this statement ring and it so different than anything else I’ve seen this season! It is def. a jewelry must-have!

The Suede & Leather Leggings: No Words!!!! Well, except they’re from Zara and only $35! I know! Right??!

Good Morning readers, the surprise is that since I sold out of all 25 Haute For NOLA tees in the first 4 days, we decided to restock them and they have finally arrived. So if you weren’t able to get one from the first shipment, here is your chance!! I have already pre-sold half of this shipment so make sure to contact me at Jenn.hauteofftherack@gmail.com to purchase yours today.

In case you missed it last time, here is a little recap about the design of the tee:

This past August I collaborated with Katie Dumestre and Rachel Adams of The Elizabeth Chronicles to create a stylish tee for my readers inspired by New Orleans, high fashion and of course Haute Off The Rack.  For those of you who aren’t familiar with TEC’s tee designs, Katie and Rachel create casual, designer-influenced tees with a hint of local flair such as the Crescent City/Chanel tee that I styled in my recent post, Crescent City Style.

For Haute Off The Rack’s tee design, we went for an Hermes-inspired image to emphasize the “H” in “Haute” once I decided on the phrase “Haute For NOLA.”  It didn’t take me long to choose the black and gold color scheme considering that the shirts would be ready just in time for football season. I figured they would be great to wear for Saints’ games to show our love for NOLA.  I hope you like our tee!  Contact me at  Jenn.hauteofftherack@gmail.com to purchase your tee today! Also, they will soon be available to purchase at Candy Apple Boutique in Metarie.

P.S. When washing your tee, do not throw it in the dryer! Lay flat to dry. The heat is too harsh on the gold foil.
