Good Morning readers and MERRY CHRISTMAS!! I hope you all have a wonderful day spending time with your family and friends!

About the boots with the fur: Nine West kindly sent me pair of these super comfy winter boots to style on Haute Off The Rack. The Gayne Lace Up Boots have a toasty warm sheering lining and a built in wedge for some added height. We didn’t have any snow here in Lousiana for me to play in with my new winter boots so I just looked for the prettiest pile of leaves that I could find! Hope you enjoy!

Tiffany’s Gift Guide for Her

IMG_2793

Good Morning readers, I know that by now you’ve seen “Breakfast With Tiffany’s” and “Cocktails With Tiffany’s” on Haute Off The Rack, but I still haven’t gotten to show you the rest of the Atlas collection. Fortunately, Tiffany & Co. graciously allowed me to hang onto the jewelry a little longer to style a Tiffany’s Christmas Gift Guide for you. After seeing all of these photos, I’m sure you can imagine how hard it was for me to give the jewelry back after the grand opening in New Orleans. However, I’m so honored to have had the opportunity to collaborate with such a prestigious company and I totally enjoyed pretending that I owned half of the Tiffany & Co. Atlas collection for a few weeks.  Also, I did get to keep one of the pieces as a sweet gift from Tiffany’s.  You can shop the entire collection here–> Atlas Collection Oh, and if you to want give someone the “hint,” pin these photos to your Christmas Wish List on Pinterest. I’m sure they’ll get the picture! You can also pick up one of these Tiffany & Co. Christmas catalogues at your nearest Tiffany’s location.
