Hair & Makeup by: Courtney Johnson and Ashley Sievert 

Good Morning readers, I hope you’re all having a great week so far! What do you think of Part I of my “Haute Summer Makeover” by Courtney Johnson and Ashley Sievert?  Want to know how they did it? Follow their how-to steps below!

Courtney’s Hair How-To:  In order to acheive these soft waves in Jenn’s hair, I used a 1 1/4 inch curling iron.  I sprayed all of her hair with Moroccan Oil moveable hold and then brushed the hair through in order to make the hair smooth before curling. I used the 1 1/4 inch curling iron to curl her hair starting from the midshaft. With each turn, I would scoot it a little closer toward the ends of her hair to evenly distribute the heat of the curling iron to the hair. This technique helps to prevent damage to your ends caused by curling your hair from the ends up. Once I finished with the curls, I back combed (teased) her entire head to get a lot of volume and then gently combed through until I achieved the volume we wanted. Lastly, using two bobby pins, I lightly twisted one side of her hair to give it a little texture horizontally. I placed one bobby pin to hold the twist then crossed another bobby pin diagonally over the other to secure the Twist in place. | You can schedule an appointment with Courtney Johnson at Rigsby Frederick Salon in Baton Rouge, La.

Ashley’s Makeup How-To:  First, I dusted a nude shimmer eye shadow and then lightly filled in the brows. Next, I added a thick liquid eyeliner and applied individual lashes to her lids. Then I rubbed the signature ASB 3 step face makeup- mineral velvet creme onto her bare face and followed with the finishing powder in LA.  Next, I padded on the ASB Glow congealer under her eyes to brighten up her whole face. I finished her off with bronzer, blush and a nude lip to give her that natural and effortless summer glow. | You can shop Ashley’s own line of makeup here–> Ashley Sievert Beauty

Good Morning readers, I hope you all had a wonderful weekend and Father’s Day!  Krystal from A Pinch of Lovely and I couldn’t be more excited to share our new beach series with you today! Over the next month, we’ll be sharing all of our top beach party accessories and essentials on Haute Off The Rack and A Pinch of LovelyTo help us prepare for our beach series, we got on the snowball and donut diet. No no no, not a real snowball and donut diet. What we mean is sometimes we can all feel a little insecure on the beach in bathing suit in front of everyone. To prevent that from happening, you need to come prepared to have fun and you won’t even think twice about your bodily insecurities! Krystal and I are both wearing these super fun snoball and pineapple tees as coverups and we brought along fun props and beach toys like this giant inflatable donut. I can assure you that if you bring a giant donut to the beach, your bodily imperfections is the last thing that anybody will be paying attention too!  Just remember to focus on having fun! Girls with big smiles who know how to have a good time surely look like the most confident type of girls and confidence is beauty!

Now head over to  A Pinch of Lovely to check out the details of her look!

Vanity Accessories: Be Happy & Do Good Mug by Ashley Brooke Designs via Hattie Sparks | Phone Wallet Wristlet c/o Gigi New York | YSL lipstick | Jewelry c/o Kendra Scott | Nirvana Perfume c/o Elizabeth & James

Good Morning readers and Happy Monday! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. Mine was amazing because I slept in until 3 in the afternoon yesterday! Can you believe that!! I haven’t slept past 10 am in over a year so I’m sure you can imagine how nice it felt to just lounge around in bed all day! All that extra sleep has me feeling happy and rejuvenated today!

Oh and these Ashley Brooke Designs mugs have a lot to do with my good mood lately too! Every morning I have my daily cup of coffee, sometimes two cups so I absolutely love using my new witty ABD mugs. I can’t help but smile when I read them. They make my every-morning coffee that much more delightful. I can’t think of a better way to start the day, well unless you add some donuts in there. Then it’s a superb morning! I know I have the worst sweet tooth!

About this dress: I know you’ve seen me wear this dress like a thousand times starting with the New Orleans wedding and then the 225 and InRegister magazine ad followed by the Avenue Rouge Runway show, but I promise this is the last you’ll ever see me wearing it. The ever-famous gold sequin dress has moved on and into someone else’s closet! I never thought I would get so much use out of a long gold sequin dress especially since it started out as a bridesmaid dress in one of my best friend’s weddings!
