Outfit: Infinity Scarf, Hunter Rain Boots & Tory Burch Mini Bucket Bag c/o Emma’s Shoes | Similar Fuzzy Eyelash Sweater | Camel Coat c/o Lands End (wearing sz Petite 4) | Sunday Necklace c/o Sarah Ott (local Louisiana designer)

Jewelry: Hoop Earrings c/o Emma’s Shoes (504) 407-0668 or (985) 778-2200 | Rings c/o Melanie Auld

Good Morning readers, today I’ve partnered up with Emma’s Shoes in Mandeville and Metairie, LA to bring you some more great gift ideas “for her” starting with these Hunter Rain boots! I swear, I think those are on every’s girls’ lists right now even if they already have a pair! Emma’s has a great selection of both the tall and short Hunter boots as well the knit boot socks, which are perfect for the winter.  I personally prefer the short style for myself since I am so petite. I’m only 5′ ft! However, the tall boots are so cute especially since you wear them with the boot socks.

 I also want to bring your attention to the simple gold hoop earrings and cozy infinity scarf. I feel like these are no brainer gift ideas because if she normally wears scarves in the winter and always dons a pair of earrings, then there is no reason that she wouldn’t love these two options from Emma’s! Even though the earrings are large hoops, they are still very understated so she can get away with wearing them as an every day earring.  If she’s more of a small stud kind of girl, then she might like wearing them out on a Friday night to shake up her look a little.

Last, but not least….the Tory Burch mini bucket bag from Emma’s. I mean how stinking cute is this little mini bag. At first, I thought to myself, this bag is just way to small to be functional, but once I tried it out I realized that it’s actually the perfect evening bag or quick errand-running bag. It has a built in wallet for your cards and cash and just enough room for your phone keys and lipgloss! You might even be able to squeeze one more beauty essential in there too. What more do you need while you’re out at night anyway!

About the Sunday Necklace: Did you notice that the necklace I’m wearing sort of resembles a football floating over the New Orleans Superdome? That’s because it is! Hence, why it is called the Sunday Necklace! This necklace is the perfect gift for any New Orleans Saints fan, but especially ones like myself.  Just in case you don’t know what kind of fan I am, I’m the type that’s more excited about putting a cute black and gold outfit together rather than the actual game! I just love how this necklace allows you to represent New Orleans in a simple and understated way. It doesn’t scream Saints football fan so you can get away with wearing it as an everyday necklace and not just on Sunday.
