NEW ORLEANS BOUND – LET THE HOLIDAY GOOD TIMES ROLL!

Metal front gate at the Wedding Cake House in New Orleans

Am in L.A. at the airport taking off to go to my friends CF and FF’s fabulous holiday party in New Orleans – this is becoming a tradition for me (how many years do you have to do something before it becomes a tradition by the way… anyone know? Huh?)

Found these pictures I took a few years back while in New Orleans visiting CF, FF and their darling son (my godson). These were taken in the middle of Spring in New Orleans about four years ago…quite a different time from the snow flurries that the city experienced yesterday (and before Katrina).

Regardless of the weather or the circumstances, my friends and New Orleans have always been so welcoming to me…an open door…a warm inviting light…lots of good times.

This year AM, JE, and their son are all coming in from New York for tomorrow’s charmed holiday party at CF and FF’s house. Dear friend JH and her husband DH are also coming in from South Carolina. Should be a great gathering of friends!

We’re having gumbo and cocktails on the porch tonight.

Laissez le bon temps rouler!

Update…Le bon temps just stopped rolling…am now sitting on plane and we are here at gate for another 20 minutes while they change some parts? Hmmm…

I’ll be there soon enough! Patience…right? Will try to blog a bit when I am there. Plan on going on a home tour in the Garden District and doing some furniture shopping on Magazine Street…will keep you posted.

P.S. For some reason I brought five (5) pairs of shoes with me…went to Barneys last night to buy some heels…ended up with a few pairs of Prada and a wonderful pair of Manolo Blahniks…did I mention there are two parties tomorrow night? A girl has to be prepared.

Going to log off now and start reading Twilight…tah tah!!! We are taking off!!!

A little mix of polished and casual. Loving the coA little mix of polished and casual. Loving the contrast of pleated denim, off-white boots, and a funnel-neck bomber layered over a classic black turtleneck. An easy outfit with just the right amount of edge. ♥️
Perfect for Paris days when the weather calls for layers and you still want to look put together.

Seven laundry rooms that make the chore feel like Seven laundry rooms that make the chore feel like a treat. 🧺
The secret is simple: choose a cabinet color you love, add a floor with some pattern, and keep storage hidden or tucked into baskets. Light or dark, each of these rooms proves a hardworking space can still feel warm and personal.

Oak, travertine, and brass carry through every roo Oak, travertine, and brass carry through every room of the Grove Townhouse by Bunsa Studio. Paneled oak built-ins frame the living room, herringbone floors run into a kitchen with a marble backsplash and caned counter stools, and the terrace kitchen pairs a fluted island with terracotta tile. In the primary bath, a skylight opens over a travertine shower with twin brass rain heads, while a sculptural marble sink anchors the powder room and a paper lantern softens the kids’ room.

From an empty room to a cozy, layered living spaceFrom an empty room to a cozy, layered living space. 🤎
A little vision, a few thoughtful design choices, and the right textiles can completely change the feel of a room.
For this living room concept, we brought in the COCOCOZY Kip Rug to anchor the space and the COCOCOZY Quatrefoil Linen Pillows to add pattern, texture, and a touch of timeless charm.
We love how the warm caramel sofa, olive green accents, natural wood, and brass details come together to create a space that feels both inviting and elevated.
This is a room concept, imagined to showcase how COCOCOZY textiles and details can transform a space.
What do you think of the transformation? Would you live here? 🤎
