Typically baby shower attire consists of little more than jeans and a shirt for most, but when the mommy-to-be is a fashionista, you know you have to step your game up. I recently attended my friend Adrienne’s baby shower last week and I knew that she and my other stylish friend Carmen would look uber-fab, […] Read More »
My Style: Hudson Jeans & What’s Haute support Breast Cancer Awareness Month!
When Hudson Jeans reached out and asked if What’s Haute would help spread the word about their breast cancer awareness initiative, I jumped at the chance. I have family members and close friends that have been directly affected by the disease, so supporting breast cancer research and awareness and helping to find a cure has […] Read More »
Haute and about: What’s Haute at the Nicole Miller x Indego Africa cocktail party
We rave on and on about endless designer collaborations but the most important ones are the ones that enable us to truly give back.

Governance.), an organization that partnered with Cocoki (Cooperative […] Read More »
My Style: Orange Pop (Hawke & Co. trench + UK Style by French Connection top + J. Crew pants)
Gloomy days call for a pop of color, don’tcha think? In college, I used to be that girl that would always wear all black.

My Style: Peplum 2011 (Kersh top + Zara jeans & sandals + Jimmy Choo Mahala/Maddy bag)
On one of the perfect, sun-filled days we had at the end of the summer, I pulled out this Kersh printed peplum-style top. Admittedly, I was never really a fan of the style – peplum dresses always conjure up images of awful eighties style to me – particularly the clothes Jackée Harry wore while playing […] Read More »
My Style: Lucky Zigzags (Missoni for Target cardigan + Seven7 jeans + Ore 10 bag)
After hearing all of the Missoni for Target online ordering horror stories and tons of tales of canceled orders, I guess I can consider myself lucky. I snagged some items from the pop-up shop in NYC on Fashion’s Night Out, plus I managed to order some more stuff when the website wasn’t crashing. This cardigan […] Read More »

My Style: Jill Scott at Jones Beach (Victoria’s Secret floral sweetheart dress + MRKT cork sandals + Beirn bag)
I received a surprise anniversary gift from my hubby – tickets to see Jill Scott in concert! She’s been my favorite female artist ever since she came out with her first album (and I’m not biased just because she’s a Philly girl like me) – she’s one super talented singer and any chance I can […] Read More »

My Style: Philly-bound (Kensie Denim jacket + Vince jeans + Jessica Kagan Cushman clutch)
The perfect day = perfect weather, the perfectly distressed denim jacket, perfect fit pants and the perfect bag. Wouldn’t you agree? We took a road trip to Philly for the day and the weather was sunny and gorgeous, but still cool enough to wear a light jacket. I love distressed denim, especially when you can […] Read More »
