Good Morning readers, if you remember from Tuesday, I styled this leopard print coat more causally with a pair of coated skinnies and flats.  So today I decided to give the leopard coat a more classic and sophisticated look with a little black dress and some black leather gloves. I did however add a bit of a twist with the studded pointy toe wedges by Dee Keller, but I also gave you a more simple platform pump option as well. I threw on the gold waist belt and winter hat to complete the look and to give the outfit some added flair.

What do you think? Do you prefer the casual style or the classic style? Before making that decision, be sure to check out the third way that I styled this coat over the weekend!

All Jewelry c/o Tiffany & Co.

 Good Morning readers, just one more day until the grand opening of Tiffany & Co. in New Orleans! I couldn’t be anymore excited, but I’m sure you can tell how I feel in my photos. Tomorrow morning, I’ll be on site for the ribbon cutting ceremony with Juley of Upperlyne, Bond PR, a slew of  Tiffany & Co. corporate executives and their excellently trained local sales staff and new store manager! I still can’t even believe that I am helping launch the first Tiffany’s in Louisiana! I must say that it is an incredible honor to work with such a prestigious and well-established company. This experience has already been a dream come true and it has only just begun.

Make sure to follow me on social media tomorrow at @HauteOffTheRack for live coverage of the Tiffany & Co. Grand Opening! Also, I hope you enjoy these photos from my “breakfast with Tiffany’s.” I know I hosted a breakfast yesterday, but I mean you didn’t really think I could host a breakfast for Tiffany’s without a quick outfit change midway through, did you? I didn’t think so! Oh and just so you know, those aren’t really napkin rings! They’re actually bracelets from the new Atlas Collection.  Speaking of the new collection, my favorite peiece is the Atlas Open Ring in 18k rose gold with diamonds. Which piece do you fancy?

P.S. Thank you so much to my photographer, Kaela Rodehorst Williams for helping me to live out my dreams. I couldn’t do half of this without you!

Good Morning readers, I hope you’re all having a great week so far.  I’m so excited to share this post with you because this is my first collaboration with Free People.  I had the pleasure of meeting with Free People during the Reward Style conference this past April and got to choose my favorite FP dress to feature on Haute Off The Rack.  The gorgeous selection made it difficult to narrow down my favorite pieces until I came across the Magical Moments Dress and it indeed was a magical moment.  The embellished details on this dress are absolutely stunning, but it’s the neck line and open back that really sold me.  I always love an exquisite back on a little black dress.  It really gives it that “wow” factor.

To style this dress, I went with minimal jewelry and a jeweled head wrap to keep with the embellished theme and to add a hint of edge to look.  For shoes, I chose my nude ankle strap heels to lengthen my legs since the dress was a little long and shifty.

Good Morning readers and welcome to Day 2 of Haute Off The Rack’s Island Getaway.  Today’s look is all about the Little Black Dress.  What I really love about LBD’s is that they give you so much room to get creative.   When it comes to styling little black dresses, the sky is the limit!  Plus when you’re stuck on what to wear, you can always go for Plan LBD.  That is why it is vital to pack a little black dress on your summer getaways because you never know when you might just need to throw one on and rush out the door.  You can always trust that dress because you know it looks good on you and you can easily dress it up or down with the right jewelry and accessories which you’ll hopefully remember to pack plenty of.  As you can see, I paired my dress with the both a casual Target beach bag and a dress shoulder bag by Elaine Turner.

Now, if you haven’t found your perfect little LBD yet, I highly recommend this little off the shoulder Show Me Your Mumu Lily Scrunch dress.  The polyester material is excellent for resisting wrinkles in your suitcase.

Packing tips: Make sure when packing for summer vacations that you remember to pack plenty of jewelry and accessories because in most cases just a change of shoes and accessories will allow you to transition your look from day to night without having to change your clothes.  This way you can keep your luggage under the 50 pound limit!
