MY NEW ORLEANS PARTY SHOES – PRADA FLATS

Prada black jewel toe patent leather flats

One reader named Mimi Lee asked to see what shoes I bought for my New Orleans trip…I think I made such a big deal about my Barneys buys that she was intrigued to find out more.

I know…the key to a good blog or brand is being focused. Cococozy is about interior design, decor and architecture…this post is not. Cococozy is not a fashion blog…I know.

Sorry to those interior design purists out there who are reading this post and thinking…”now this blog has gone too far; it is all over the place…fashion, interior design, ramblings of some girl named Coco, what in the world is this?”…please forgive me for this one post as I digress.

For those of you who care…

I had four parties to attend in a 48 hour period while in New Orleans last weekend. So I had to bring many outfits and of course many shoes…

Here was my New Orleans party schedule: 1) a casual night time gumbo/chili party on the porch of my friends CF and FF’s grand mansion; 2) a late afternoon holiday party for adults and kids; 3) an elegant Saturday evening cocktail/dinner party at the FF/CF home; 4) an afternoon garden party/tea at another beautiful uptown home belonging to SB and JB.

Being a shoe person, I of course, have shoes and was actually only going to Barneys to see if I might find a better pair of evening shoes…well low and behold I found several pairs that I loved (and consequently bought and consequently wore).

For reader Mimi Lee, here are my New Orleans party shoes:

I wore all of these shoes and a few other pairs over the course of 2 days in New Orleans…oh…did I mention they were all on sale!

There Mimi Lee…there is my “fashion aside”…you asked…and you got! Hope you enjoyed!

For the interior design purists…next post will be “on brand”…

What do you think of my party shoes? What do you think about this fashion “non sequitur”? Please click on comments link below and vent!

    I am drooling over these shoes. Most importantly, what size are you? If you are a 7-1/2….watch out for midinight burglars!

Before you start moving furniture, ask yourself thBefore you start moving furniture, ask yourself these three questions:
Does this improve the room’s function?
Does it create a better focal point?
Does it make the space easier to walk through?
If the answer is “no” to all three, maybe it’s just the rearranging itch talking. 😅
Save this for the next time you’re tempted to move every piece of furniture in your house.
Watch to the end to weigh in. Clogs or no clogs? TWatch to the end to weigh in. Clogs or no clogs? They are on sale...not sure.
Summer sale season is here, and we are not holding back. 👏
This is the time of year to finally grab those pieces you’ve been eyeing all season. The good news? Major markdowns are happening right now across some of the best brands.
Our tip: Shop with intention. Know your palette, know your fit, and choose pieces that work with what you already own, not just because they’re on sale.
We’ve already done the hard work and created a Summer Sale Shopping Board filled with our favorite finds. A Shopping Board is like your own storefront. It’s a curated collection of products you can shop yourself or share with others to earn when they purchase through your links.
✨ Want to make it yours?
Comment SALE and we’ll send you the link. Then just tap “Add This Board” to save it to your Chirpyest account.
Or grab the link here 👉 https://www.chirpyest.com/s/cocoedit/summer-sale-2026/2071?mode=share
From there, you can shop the collection, share it with your audience, earn from your recommendations, and get cashback on your own purchases. 💛
This is the house that stopped us mid-scroll and k This is the house that stopped us mid-scroll and kept us there.
A 90s home in Amman, Jordan, entirely remodelled by local artisans. Neo-Florentine bones, Levant-eclectic sensibility, arched passageways, and a flea-market-meets-commissioned-art collection that makes every wall feel intentional.
What makes it work: restraint where you’d expect excess, and boldness where you’d expect safety.
This is what happens when a home is built by people who actually know the place. 🖤
Save this, it’s a masterclass in culturally rooted design.

Panic mode activated!
If you only have 10 minutes, focus on these three things:
1. Make the bed. It instantly makes the whole room look cleaner.
2. Fold or straighten the throw blanket and pillows.
3. Clear visible clutter from nightstands and the floor.
That’s it. Those three steps make the biggest visual impact without deep cleaning.
Save this for the next time you need a fast bedroom reset. 🔖

Black is not a bold choice. It’s a neutral, and one of the most versatile ones in design.
The rooms that get it right treat black the same way others treat white or greige: as a foundation that lets everything else breathe. The texture of the wall. The warmth of the wood. The drama of the marble. Black doesn’t compete, it amplifies.
Save this the next time someone talks you out of going dark. 🖤
