BARE WALLED BEDROOMS – SIMPLY SERENE SLEEPING!

I am in vacation recovery mode (VRM). I am trying to be interested in everything here in Los Angeles…but I really don’t care. I just want to be back on the beach of Los Cabos. Yesterday I went to a fab book signing for the amazing interior designer Mary McDonald. It was being held at Nathan Turner’s darling shop in West Hollywood. I didn’t care. Yesterday at work, we had a big deal close, I didn’t care. Drink plans were canceled on me, I didn’t care. I just care about Los Cabos, Las Ventanas and my spot by the pool. Maybe I should call it Postpartum Vacation Syndrome (PPVS).

Oh and on top of all my VRM and PPVS, I haven’t been able to get a good night’s sleep since being back all of one day. I was up until 4am watching Training Day with Ethan Hawke and Denzel Washington the other night on HBO. Basically it is the story about a guy going to his first day of work with a really mean boss…I normally would not watch a movie like this but I was enthralled…part of VRM and PPVS I guess.

So I need sleep. I need to be back on vacation. Most realistically attainable will be sleep…so here are some soothing bedrooms.

All these bedrooms have pretty much bare walls…still they are lovely…I like the idea of keeping the bedroom simple and serene.

I like the Laura Kirar bedroom the best. I love those closets. Which do you prefer?

Happy Friday!

I am off to work.

    I have to agree that it would be very difficult to work when the beach is calling! VRM can be very difficult to overcome! Good luck and have a great weekend!

    I like the Laura Kirar room the best. Well accessorized and detailed .. simple serene describes it perfectly. The others miss the mark in achieving that emotion;
    McGill — hotel
    McMillen — staged to sell
    Cannet — feels as if the owner can’t decide what to do with the fireplace.

    There something to be said about serene bedrooms. I love color, but clearly sleep better in a muted peaceful look!

    All such serene looking rooms- mine is so dark right now and I am longing for some bright white walls to liven it up! Sorry to hear about the post vaca trouble- always hard to get back into the swing of things. Enjoy your weekend- have some champagne- that will cheer you up:)

    Beautiful rooms! That Mary McDonald book signing had to be a TREAT! Her new book is fabulous! So sorry you weren’t that into it! I would have gladly taken your spot!

Behind-the-scenes: Fun work trip to visit the COCOBehind-the-scenes: Fun work trip to visit the COCOCOZY bedding collection at the Welspun showroom in New York. Met with some buyers, had a fun time with the Welspun team, then capped off the weekend with a visit with friends. It is a long process to get bedding in stores across the country...showing the collections at textiles market is one of the first steps!
If you're interested in learning how I have gotten @cococozy products into stores around the country over the years including in major retailers...follow along...just one entrepreneur's journey. :)

Today is my birthday but...I don’t want to celeb Today is my birthday but...I don’t want to celebrate...I want to help.
I want to make a meaningful impact in our greater Los Angeles community suffering from the fires. I invite you to join me in transforming birthday wishes into support for one local organization on the ground in Pasadena/Altadena.
I have made a contribution today already to the LA Fire Relief Fund created by @victorybiblechurch in Pasadena. They are actively assisting families in need in both Pasadena and Altadena who have been affected by the devastating Eaton Fire.
Although I don't have a personal connection to Pastor DeCuir or the church, I was searching for an organization that is helping in the Altadena area. A well respected civil rights attorney I follow @leemerrittesq is on the ground helping the church members and community members with legal services in the wake of the fires. I hope by contributing to their efforts, we can extend a helping hand to those facing significant challenges during this difficult time
To donate, please visit their website at https://vbcpasadena.org/ (link in bio as well). Every contribution, no matter the size, brings hope and relief to those who need it most. Tell them you heard about them from me.
Your generosity to the Los Angeles community is the best birthday gift I could ask for.

Happy New Year! 🎉✨ As we step into this freshHappy New Year! 🎉✨ As we step into this fresh chapter, I’m reminded of the beauty of starting anew and I like recommitting to goals at the top of the year. Nothing set in stone but just an overall vision of what I'd like to do and who I would hope to help along the way.
This year, my mantra is: **dream big, act boldly, treasure the small joys, continue to lead with kindness and to have as much empathy as possible for others **. Just a few things...😂
I’m also deeply committed to helping people who follow along to achieve their dreams. I'll be curating captivating interior design inspiration with COCOCOZY that will hopefully give you ideas and dreams for your own space. I will also be empowering you to realize the value of your influence with Chirpyest by earning cash back for sharing and shopping. I hope to be open about the journey of the COCOCOZY product line. I want to share real time behind the scenes how the line is being built and how we are growing Chirpyest; both examples of the not so linear journey of building businesses from the ground up. I hope these stories spark you to push your own boundaries and shake out of your comfort zones.
Lastly, in 2025, I’m committed to surrounding myself with people who have a positive vibe about them while striving to be that same light for others. Luckily, I have a great start on this with an amazing family and fantastic group of friends - a fantastic support network.
My wish for you in 2025: May this year bring you clarity, courage, and the confidence to pursue all that makes you happy.
What’s one thing you’re committing to in 2025? Let’s inspire each other in the comments! 💬❤️
Let's get to this...am ready 2025!
