Good Morning readers and congratulations to all of the 2013 graduates who will be receiving their diplomas this weekend including my younger sister who will be graduating from high school this Saturday!  In honor of all the graduates, I felt it appropriate to put together an all white look that can be worn post ceremony.  I think this all white outfit is the perfect after party look!

I bet you’re probably thinking that you’d never be interested in wearing a skort again, but how awesome is this white fold over skort from Zara!  It’s so chic and fashion forward. I especially love how the asymmetrical hem in front adds a little modern touch to the old half skirt half shorts look.

For jewelry and accessories, I kept it simple and stuck with nude and classic silver pieces minus my white shark tooth and turquoise earrings by Give a Penny Designs.  You know I always have to pop a color somewhere!  Also, if you’re a fan of Elaine Turner, get excited for our upcoming collaboration and giveaway together.

P.S. If you live in the Baton Rouge area, you should definitely try to stop by the Give a Penny Designs Trunk Show at Head Over Heels boutique on Corporate Blvd. The earrings below are two of my favorite picks from the collection.

Behind the Scenes of Mignon Faget

Good Morning readers, if you keep up with me on Instagram then you know that I had the pleasure of touring the Mignon Faget headquarters in New Orleans, Louisiana this past Tuesday.  I got to meet the entire staff, see new and upcoming pieces and even watch jewelry production.  I also learned that 95% of Mignon Faget jewelry is made here in the US and each peice is finished and put together right here in New Orleans at the headquarters on Magazine St. Needless to say, it was such a great experience and I can’t wait to style some Mignon jewelry on Haute Off The Rack.

I got to choose a few pieces of jewelry to feature on Haute Off The Rack at the Mignon Faget flagship store including the Oyster Cocktail Ring that I’m wearing in this photo.

It was so hard to only choose a few pieces because they were all so beautiful and exquisite.
