Good Morning readers, I hope you all had a wonderful weekend and are looking forward to the Thanksgiving holiday this week.  I can’t wait to get away from work for a while and just enjoy time with family and friends before I take on a few more new Haute Off The Rack clients for Christmas shopping and wardrobe styling sessions for upcoming holiday events.  Speaking of holiday events, I would most definitely recommend wearing this dress and/or necklace to a cocktail attire Christmas party.  I love how this dress has just the right amount of leather to play into this season’s hottest trend plus it still has a classic and flattering fit.  And not to mention, how chic do black and navy look together.  I think the black leather makes it a little sexy, but the navy silk keeps it classy and sophisticated.  If you want to dress it down some I think it would look great with some opaque tights and black, heeled ankle boots.

As far as the Stella and Dot Pegasus necklace, well that piece of jewelry speaks for itself!  It will surely add instant glam to any holiday outfit especially if you’re trying to stand out in a little black dress. I also love how the necklace accents the gold in the cap toe pumps.  Get ready to see a few more holiday dresses styled with the Pegasus necklace over the next few days!

Hello everyone,  I’m so glad that is finally Mardi Gras break and weekend has begun! I will post a Mardi Gras style board at some point this weekend for you!

As for the outfit,  I absolutely love black and cobalt blue together!  In the photos above, I’m wearing a pair of DL 1961 coated denim which are made to look like leather pants!  I tried black coated denim in a few different brands before choosing DL 1961, and I found these to be the most comfortable pair.  I own a few other pairs by DL 1961 and I highly recommend them. They’re flattering to any body type because of their 360 stretch and their comfort level is superb!!  I paired a faux leather jacket and a black fringe purse to maintain the edgy look and cobalt, blue blouse to add some color.  I think this outfit is perfect for casual Friday at work or even out that night!

P.S. Sorry about my hair in these pictures.  These photos were from the 8 am, freezing cold/rainy photo shoot with Gretchen!  Speaking of Gretchen… I want to congratulate her and my friend Haley Costa to making to the final cut audition for NOLA Fashion week.  Wish them luck!!

Also, I just want to remind you that it is President’s day weekend and tons of your favorite stores like: Banana Republic, Ann Taylor, Tory Burch, Forever 21 etc. will be having great promotions on full priced items as well as sale items making this the perfect weekend to get some early spring shopping done!  Have a great weekend everyone!

Good Morning!  I am so excited about this outfit post because it’s one of my favorites!  How great is this Elizabeth and James dress!!  You can find it at Park Lane boutique in Baton Rouge.  I was a tad worried that these horizontal stripes weren’t going to flatter my figure, but the seam on the left side of the dress runs asymmetrically which helped break up the stripes.  I added the floppy hat to give the outfit a little fun flare.  I wore a simple gold chain necklace and bracelet along with my Michael Kors watch to keep with the classical nautical theme!  Have a wonderful day and I hope you enjoyed this post!
