Good Morning readers, I hope you all had a great weekend and Mother’s Day! I had an excellent weekend thanks to everyone who came out to the Haute Off The Rack and Candy Apple Popup Shop at Studio 311 Salon. The event was a great success and we really appreciated your business. I can’t wait to host another one!

For those of you who missed the popup, the Crystal Knot necklace by Dotted Tusk that I’m wearing in today’s post is actually one of the pieces that we gave away at the end of the popup shop. We also gave away a turquoise statement necklace from Candy Apple. Fortunately for those who couldn’t make it, we still have one more giveaway coming up from Candy Apple:: a blog shop so stay tuned for details.

About this outfit, I was shooting for a dressy-casual look with these denim mint shorts and so I decided to pair them with some matching mint wedges and a blowzy white top. Then I accessorized with my fancy Crystal Knot necklace, a few pastel-colored bracelets and my white Rebecca Minkoff-inspired bag from Candy Apple. I think this look could easily transition from day to night. What are your thoughts? How do you dress up your colored denim while still keeping it simple?

Good Morning readers, I know you are all anxiously waiting to find out the winner of the Gigi New York Clutch Giveaway. I promise that I will announce the winner by tonight. So make sure to check back later this evening to see the name of the winner on this post! Or Follow me on Instagram @HauteOffTheRack where I will also be announcing the winner.

As for this outfit, one of my favorite things to wear is my Mother Denim jeans with a white blouse and some colorful jewelry and accessories. It’s such an easy go-to outfit, and I swear I could live in my Mother Denim Curfew Bell Jeans. I have never come a across a pair of jeans that is both as flattering and comfortable as the The Curfew Bell.

Let me just say that when it comes to denim, Mother knows best. No, I’m not talking about my own mother I’m talking about designers Tim Kaeding, former designer for 7 for All Mankind, and Lela Tillem, former president of sales and marketing at Citizens for Humanity who collaborated together to create this killer brand. These are the most amazingly comfortable, yet flattering pair of jeans I have ever worn! That is probably because Tim Kaeding has been experimenting with materials that feel like cashmere, but look like denim for the past two years. What a genius! Right? I don’t know about you all, but some mornings I wake up and want to wear nothing more than a pair of comfy yoga pants. Kaeding has acknowledged this and says that in order “for jeans to make a comeback, technology has to step in” (http://www.vogue.com). That explains why it doesn’t even feel like I’m wearing real jeans. However, Mother doesn’t just pride on texture, the designer duo continually develop new fits.
