Good Morning readers, I hope you’re all having a great week. I don’t have a lot of time to write because I’m actually getting ready for the grand opening of Tiffany & Co. in NOLA this morning, and I still don’t know what I’m wearing! Can you believe that? I need to walk out of the door in 20 minutes and I still haven’t decided on an outfit! This is actually pretty typical of me. I always decide last minute for these types of things.

About this outfit: The scarf I’m wearing in today’s post is actually something I found in the men’s section at Target, but I just had to buy it because it looks identical to my old uniform skirt from high school. I went to all an girl Catholic School, and everyday I wore this same plaid print to school. This scarf brought back some good old memories, and if you went to St. Scholastica Academy I know that you’re thinking the same thing!

Don’t forget to follow along with me on social media this morning at @HauteOffTheRack for live coverage of the Tiffany & Co. Grand Opening!

 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 all had a wonderful weekend. My weekend wasn’t anything too special, but this week sure will be! The first Tiffany & Co. in New Orleans, Louisiana will host their grand opening this Wednesday, November 27th.  To top it off, Juley of Upperlyne and I have been selected by Tiffany & Co. to help launch the new location on Canal!  We are both very honored and excited to be a part of their new venture in Louisiana. It is so amazing to watch the city of New Orleans continue to grow with the fashion industry.

In honor of the new Tiffany & Co. location in New Orleans, I decided to host an intimate little breakfast featuring the new Atlas collection. Since, we couldn’t have “breakfast at Tiffany’s,” I decided to have breakfast “with” Tiffany’s! I hope you enjoy the photos. My photographer and I actually set this photo shoot up with an old outside table in my backyard after a quick trip to the florist and Cupcake Couture. We thought the atmosphere of my backyard fit the perfect southern setting to give Tiffany & Co. a nice warm welcome to Louisiana.

As for the jewelry, the new Tiffany’s Atlas Collection is both fresh and modern while still true to the chic and sophisticated style of the brand. All of  the Tiffany & Co. jewelry collections are very sleek and elegant and their pieces always add the perfect touch to a classic style. Can you guess which piece is my favorite? Check back tomorrow for more photos and to hear which piece of jewelry I favor most! Oh and don’t worry, you’ll see more of the jewelry styled on my blog throughout the next few weeks!

P.S. I have two running two amazing giveaways right now: Gigi New York + Graphic Image ($500 value) Giveaway & the Candy Apple Thanksgiving Giveaway! Make sure to enter both before it’s too late!
