Am in New Oleans again! Visiting godson CGF, best friend FF and her dear husband CCF. I come to town this time every year to wish the family happy holidays and to attend their fabulous and elegant holiday party.

I am sitting in the library right now just hours before the big event. The house is bustling. Party planning is in full swing. Extraordinary event planner Delaney Todd Bagwell is overseeing the preparations for almost 250 guests and all of the holiday decor!

Over the next few posts I’ll take you through the holiday decor at CCF’s and FF’s wonderful historic home…and maybe you’ll get an idea or two for your holiday designs!

Did I mention the kids’ party that is happening here at the house today too? There will be over 50 children partaking in Santa, face painting, cookie decorating, magician watching, caricture posing and more!

Have to go get dressed for that now!

Stay tuned for more!

Your mom’s coming over and suddenly every room neeYour mom’s coming over and suddenly every room needs to be perfect. 🤣
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. 🖤

Life when I’m offline. 🎣 On this trip to Park CitLife when I’m offline. 🎣
On this trip to Park City, UT, I was way off line with a little fly fishing. No emails. No DMs. No feed. Just a rod, a beautiful river, and however long it takes to catch something.
Running two brands means my brain rarely stops so when it does, it really does.
No fish were harmed. All fish were returned into the river.
What do you do when you log off? Comment and let's give each other some ideas!😀

15 things you don’t know about me 👋 1. I’m the fo15 things you don’t know about me 👋
1. I’m the founder of COCOCOZY, but design wasn’t my first career. I was a t.v. news reporter and then a t.v. executive.
2. I’m also the founder of a tech company, Chirpyest.
3. My work has been featured in Architectural Digest and House Beautiful.
4. I designed an entire Design House from scratch.
5. I’m obsessed with mixing vintage flea market finds with modern furniture.
6. Paris is basically my second home. I go every chance I get.
7. I once found a pile of rusty horseshoes at a flea market and turned them into decor.
8. Black and white is my go-to palette when I’m stuck on a design.
9. I am an expert at making a short story long! 😬
10. I believe a side table can make or break a room.
11. Kindness is genuinely one of my core values, not just a bio line.
12. I’ve been doing design and content long enough to have opinions on everything from rugs to real estate. 18 years!
13. I’m just as happy on a flea market hunt as I am at a design fair.
14. My camera roll is 70% room shots, 20% selfies (obsessed with skincare and fashion these days) 10% coffee in Paris cafés.
15. I started sharing all this because I love it, not because it was the “smart” thing to do.
Now you know a little more about the person behind COCOCOZY 🤍 Which one surprised you most? Tell me below.
