Red Haute Fringe

I've been quite obsessed with the color red lately. My Red Louis Vuitton Estrella Bag lit this fire and I've been buying red clothing like there's no tomorrow. It is kind of funny because I did the same thing with the color blue when I first got my Celine Mini Luggage bag in indigo blue. Don't worry, I'll be back to normal in a few months... or at least until I purchase a new bag!

The funny thing is that I'm not even carrying my Estrella Bag with this outfit. I instead opted to carry my new Louis Vuitton Pallas wallet like a handheld clutch. This scrumptious cherry red wallet was my anniversary present from my husband this year. It matches my new bag perfectly and was so thoughtful to me because the traditional 3 year wedding anniversary gift is "leather".

These fringe ankle strap heels caught my attention for a few reasons but if we are being totally honest here, I bought them because they are red! I must have purchased five pairs of red heels in the past month! If you don't believe me just wait until you see my future outfit posts littered with red heels.

This outfit to me is trendy yet classy. Fringe has made a major comeback this year and I predict it will be even more popular for the upcoming Fall/Winter. I have already caught myself eyeing a few fringed boots and booties! The other popular trend we see making it's way into this ensemble is the crop top and pencil skirt combo. This trend is very streamlined, sexy and fun. You can see it on just about every celebrity in Hollywood from Kim Kardashian to Beyoncé, Jennifer Lawrence, Crissy Teigan, Rihanna and more!

Pink Hair Don't Care!

I'm loving my bright pink locks and sultry outfit of the day!

Above you can see the products I used to dye my hair pink. This is my second run with pink hair in less than a year. I did it for my birthday in March and absolutely loved it! The upkeep however, is horrible!! The maintenance for pink hair makes having blonde hair seem like a walk in the park but if you want to try a crazy unnatural color and your job permits this fun loving experiment then by all means you should totally do it! Surprisingly, the commitment involved in dying your hair pink is rather low if you already have light hair. You can simply apply the semi-permanent color of your choice directly to blonde hair, enjoy it for a little while and you can be completely back to blonde in 3-7 washes depending on your hair. Unfortunately, if you have dark hair it is a bit more of a hassle. You will have to first lighten your do and then apply the rainbow color and once it rinses out you are left with processed light hair instead of your natural dark shade. For really dark hair I recommend heading to your trusted hairstylist and letting a professional take care of the lightening process. I have heard way too many horror stories from girls trying to bleach their hair by themselves and ending up with fried or broken off hair. Once a pro brings your dark hair to a very light blonde (this may take more than one appoitment) you can easily apply the pink hair dye (or whichever shade you fancy) at home. I purchased Beyond the Zone Color Jamz in Party Time Pink from Sally's Beauty Supply for $5.99. I used 1.5 bottles and saved the half bottle for touch-ups since the color fades so quickly. Here is a direct link to the pink hair dye I used. In the past I also tried Manic Panic and Ion Color Brilliance. Manic Panic was great but I wasn't a big fan of the Ion Color. I felt like it dried my hair out more than the other products.

Leather & Louboutins Outfit of the Day

My "Party Time Pink" hair has me feeling all sassy! haha. I've had this sexy vegan leather dress hanging in my closet for months now. Something about my new pink hair made me want to wear this bad boy. Oh you know, just another typical day at the I'm Haute office! Oh yea, did I mention that we have a movie theater in our building? Totally random and totally amazing! :) I worked all day like a boss in my killer outfit and at six I decided I should probably take pics to share my new look with you all... I SO forgot that it is pitch black by 5pm now and as soon as I stepped outside with my sunglasses on I realized I didn't need them and that I needed to quickly come up with a Plan B... aka operation impromptu movie theater photoshoot. Oh, and PS- my camera broke so these pics are via my iphone. How do some people take amazing shots on an iphone?! Mine always come out blurry. :-/ Anyways, thanks for checking out my blog post, I hope you like my new hair and my outfit of the day! All shares and comments are greatly appreciated!!

Ok, can we take a second to appreciate this amazing pink purse?! This is my second Christian Louboutin handbag and I still have a crush on it! The outside is silk with intricate gatherings and features gold studded metal trim. The gold chain in removable for a hand-held clutch option and the clasp to open and close the purse is made of two tiny gold stilettos! That is by far my favorite detail of this bag. I also think the red lining is a nice touch and super sexy... matches the bottoms of my sexy spiked heels!

Femme Fatale Outfit

Just like a femme fatale in a romance novel or an ancient myth, this outfit sucked me in at first sight and left me powerless against its charm. I was enticed by the beauty and mystery evoked through this sleek and sexy combination of fashion must-haves. I love all these items separately but together, together they are something else.

Naturally, my black quilted jacket is named The Femme Fatale Jacket, available from I'm Haute. It is the perfect blend of timeless class and modern attitude. It has a luxurious Chanel vibe with a more attainable and seductive price tag. I am beyond obsessed with this fabulous little jacket. It is just what my fall wardrobe has been looking for!

While this black quilted jacket would look awesome with just about anything it looks particularly fabulous with my taupe A-line dress. I love A-line anything these days, so feminine and figure flattering. The dress and jacket compliment each other well, probably because both styles are so classic and chic. Keeping with the chic and charming feel,I finished my femme fatale outfit off with a classic black quilted bag and silver single-sole heels. Talk about trouble!
