I know it is late…but thought I would give you a little glimpse of what holidays have looked like for me and my family.  The picture above is the mantle at my sister’s house.  I am using that as the featured image because I designed her living room and it is so much fun seeing her elegant but subtle holiday decor in it. She had several parties a few weekends ago and it was brilliant to see holidays in full swing at her house.  For me, it is going to be all about the table and tree…

Here is another gift guide to help you this holiday season! Today is all about candles – a classic gift that you can give to anyone. Perfect to add ambiance to any home. I always enjoy adding a new scent to my collection. It can transform the atmosphere in any room. And who doesn’t love making a room smell sugary and sweet during the holidays?

Whether it is used for added decor, or to add a fresh scent to the room. This guide features both candles just for the holidays, along with those perfect everyday candles. Again, I included the luxury artisan hand-poured candles (small and large) from the COCOCOZY x etuHome collection. It’s a blog about candles. How could I not! 😉 Don’t forget to use the Chirpyest browser extension to save $$$ this holiday season. Earn up to 15% cash back from everything listed below!

Tis the season of candles.  The COCOCOZY team is planning a round up of 17 candles for the holiday. (that’s coming later this week or next) ..but I am picking just one collection to spotlight – it is my own. 😉 As part of the COCOCOZY x etuHome collection, we developed a pair of candles.  Hand poured in France. Bergamot and mint.  Wonderful aroma.  Clean and long burning.  Comes in small and large.  Perfect, in-stock, gift idea for you.

For the last six months, I’ve been working out at StrongHouse Fitness, which is a black-owned gym in Los Angeles. I wanted to shed some of my quarantine lbs and just get into better overall shape. It became a daily therapeutic activity. I actually really enjoy going. Working out helps keep you energized and motivated. And I always enjoy buying new fitness apparel. My trainer has given me the nickname “COCO Ninja”….LOL. My goal is to be consistent with my workouts throughout the new year too.

Today’s holiday guide is for all you fitness buffs out there. Or for those of you who plan on working out more come the new year. The COCOCOZY team has prepared a strong list of workout essentials. We have covered it all with 62 items to choose from. Shop for apparel that is both comfortable and fashionable from brands like Lululemon, Athleta, Nike, and more!

It’s time to focus on the women in your life for the holidays. Shopping for a mother, daughter, sister, aunt, friend or co-worker?  Well I am.  I’m currently looking for the perfect gifts for my mom, sister, my aunt and some cousins and friends. I won’t say what I’m getting them since they read my blog LOL. I know how overwhelming holiday shopping can be, which is why I wanted to create a holiday guide. It has everything from luxury fashion finds to gourmet sweets. And I have even included luxury artisan hand poured candles (small and large) from the COCOCOZY x etuHome collection. A little something for everyone. I even selected some must-have home decor. They will compliment every room. A thoughtful gift will lift anyone’s holiday spirit. Shop my luxury holiday gift guide “for her” below.

I have an early holiday gift for you from Chirpyest.  For a limited window, we are giving everyone who uses Chirpyest double cash back from over 800 retailers.  Yup.

Chirpyest is a shopping tool that helps get you cash back on your purchases from hundreds of retailers.  Chirpyest also gives you money for sharing product recommendations too.  Our mission is to get women the recognition and money they deserve.

For those of you who hadn’t heard, I started another company named Chirpyest. Without any experience, for two years, I worked with software developers to build the Chirpyest platform. Just this summer we launched the site’s prototype and it works!!!  (still a work in progress for sure…) For those of you who joined early this year, and found a glitchy website and browser extension, we were testing then and it wasn’t pretty.  Now things have changed…we did it…Chirpyest now works and we are getting cash back for users everyday.  So try again please!!!

Many of you still might be confused on what Chirpyest is and how to use it. Well, DIY blogger Orly Shani made this easy “how Chirpyest works” video…watch the video.  Then you’ll understand why double cash back is a big holiday gift for you! (BTW, My mom, cousin and friend Nicole all said Orly does a better job of explaining Chirpyest than I do…they may be right!).

Orly’s “what is Chirpyest? video” is next (it is in her video on how to transform a jean jacket into a fab new trend)….

If your family is anything like mine, then they’re always gathered around in the kitchen for Thanksgiving. It doesn’t matter the occasion. I always try to create a beautiful tablescape to host my guests, but they somehow always end up in the kitchen. Does this happen to anyone else? It makes sense since a kitchen is the heart of the home. And it’s also where the food is…LOL.

I’m starting to prep for Thanksgiving. I’ve been looking for tablescape essentials, home decor, and last-minute kitchen accessories. I was thinking about setting up a coffee, espresso, and tea bar in the kitchen. People always enjoy a treat after dinner. Personally, I love a warm cup of tea at night. It’s the perfect way to end my day. While shopping for myself, I’ve gathered some Thanksgiving essentials for all of you.
