Call For Chic

For me, the word “chic” conjures up images of easy, streamlined style. I find I’m always striving for that sweet spot; where minimalism is so shockingly impactful to the eye, that it packs a powerful punch.  This permanent quest for consolidation can be applied to every aspect of my life; from my outfits, to my work and how I run my companies, to why I started Haute House Flower.

 As a fashion publicist, on-air talent, and now also a style blogger, I am always required to have my phone on me, yet I still need to be able to operate hands-free.  For years I’ve searched for the perfect cross body bag that could be stylish, and still achieve these goals.  You can imagine then, when I received this iPhone case (courtesy of Toola) I literally jumped up and down with excitement! A self-proclaimed Chanel-addict , I’m a sucker for anything black, quilted and chain-linked. Toola’s little cross-bodied iphone case is all this, and so much more. The tri-fold phone case features a detachable shoulder length strap,  includes 3 slots for credit cards, and an interior pocket for cash.  No more flustered rummaging for your wallet, or phone in your purse! The exposed camera hole keeps photo-taking seamless, and the strap also turns risky pictures (holding your phone over the edge of a balcony, or out a window just to get that perfect shot) absolutely danger free.

Whether you’re running back and forth to editor desk sides and press previews, working red carpet events, or are just plain BUSY, this highly functional design promises to make your life just that much easier.  Now that’s what I call chic.
