Good Morning readers, this past week I finally decided to shoot some outfits for Haute Off The Rack ( I know it’s been a while! Sorry!), but of course it just had to rain all day! I’m sure you’ve gathered now that a little a rain didn’t stop us! Kaela shot under her umbrella and I surrendered my  freshly blow-dried hair to the heat and humidity. If you’re from Louisiana, you know what I mean when I say surrendering yourself to the heat and humidity! There’s no turning back after that! You can say goodbye to volume and perfectly tussled locks and say hello to flatness and frizz!  Nevertheless, Kaela worked her magic and we were able to shoot two outfits for you, but mostly for my sake because I need your help! Next Friday, I’m attending the grand opening at The River Walk outlets in New Orleans and I can’t decide which look to go for! So The River Walk and I are asking for your vote on what I should wear!

Head over to the @RiverwalkNOLA on Instagram and vote for your favorite look! Chic Versatility or Easy Breezy Boho? I’ll wear the wining look to the opening party at the River Walk next Friday night!

Keep your eye out for details on the second look tomorrow!

P.S. If you can’t make it to the party on Friday night, I encourage you to attend the grand opening event on Thursday Morning, May 22nd! The first 500 shoppers to spend $100 will receive swag bags! Details on the ad below!

Good Morning readers, I hope you all had a wonderful weekend and Mother’s Day.

Last month at the rewardStyle conference in Dallas I had the pleasure of meeting with the NastyGal marketing team to discuss some fun collaborations with Haute Off The Rack. During our meeting, they introduced me to Sophia Amoruso’s latest book, #GIRLBOSS.  In case you don’t know who Sophia Amoruso is, she is the founder and CEO of the amazing online store, NastyGal! The New York Times describes Amoruso as “The Cinderella of tech,” and she has also been named “Fashion’s new phenom,” by Forbes.  With that being said I can’t wait to dive into this book and hopefully learn some of her successful ways. I wouldn’t mind if The Huffington Post called me “Starkly brilliant.”

**P.S. Make sure to catch my WBRZ News segment today at 4pm on channel 2! I’ll be talking about how to wear and layer jewelry for the summer featuring Mary P Lamb Designs, Gorjana and Betsy Pittard Designs.**

Good Morning readers, as promised here is Mother’s Day Giveaway #2! By entering this giveaway, you could win a free family photo session with my amazing photographer, Kaela Rodehorst. The package includes: a one hour photo session in the Baton Rouge or New Orleans area, 40+ photos on a DVD and two 5×7 prints!  Talk about the perfect present for Mother’s Day!! I can’t think of any mom who wouldn’t want to capture sweet moments like the photos above with her children.

In case you’re wondering who this adorable baby girl is, she just so happens to be my “fairy” god child.  So I get spoil her for the rest of her life! She’s also the daughter of my best friend from first grade! Anyway, we did this mini photo shoot in the sun room of my new condo which goes to show that you don’t need  a studio to get the perfect lighting for a photo shoot.  Kaela will come right to your house and work her magic in the comfort of your own home. She does such an amazing job of bringing her creativity and ideas to the table to capture just the right moments bewtween a family. She never ceases to amaze me with her talent and ability to bring my ideas to life with her photos.  Not to mention her enthusiasm and encouragement throughout the shoot.  She knows exactly how to bring out your inner beauty and capture it in a photo.
