Bye 2014. Hello 2015.

All the gifts from under the tree have been handed out (for the most part lol) so now its time to give out one more gift to close out the holidays: YOU in a bomb.com (thank my goddaughter for that phrase) New Years ensemble!

I'm usually at home at midnight saying a prayer of thanks and watching whatever Law & Order franchise is doing a marathon. Might change it up a bit this year...go crazy...rent a movie through On Demand. WILD AND CRAZY!! So, Im probably going to be relaxing in a pair of my finest pajamas (old tshirt and shorts).

If you're not like me and you're actually bringing in 2015 in a more social setting, I have some ensemble inspiration for ya! So, before the "New Year, New Me!" statuses start flooding your social media newsfeeds/timelines, here's your final style inspiration for 2014!

Whatever you may doing at the stroke of midnight, I wish you safety, fun and lots of love!

Be careful, be blessed and have a very prosperous new year! *Cheers to 2015!*

Love,

Coco

My Resurrection

On March 19, 2017, I took a huge step in my spiritual journey. I walked into a baptism pool, lowered myself into the holy water, and allowed my mind, spirit, heart and body to be cleansed. I rose up from the water with a new outlook. I was ready to embark on the next steps of my journey as a baptized woman. A year later, I am reflecting upon the 365 plus days since my baptism and I am amazed by the growth I've experienced. Was the journey easy? Absolutely not. Was it easier to face the battles and adversity after renewing my relationship with God? Absolutely. I have constantly been reminded that God never said weapons wouldn't form. He said they wouldn't prosper (Isaiah 54:17) . I hit some bumps in the road (spiritually, financially, mentally, and physically). I went through a short season of confusion and lack of motivation. I was angry with God. I yelled at Him! (Ever seen me yelling and upset? Then you know this wasn't cute!) Literally, ye...

Its Spring!...Kinda.

Depending on where you are in the country and what day of the week it is, Winter is making its exit and Spring is sashaying in. Gone are the days of covering up as much skin as possible to avoid the savage chill of winter's wrath. Now, we can bask in the warmth of the sun and the cool breezes of Springtime. According to my calendar, Spring "officially" started about a week ago. If you are lucky enough to live in a place that has seen a rise in temperatures and the return of the sun, this post is for you! If your area's temperatures havent quite gotten that "Its Spring!" memo yet, I'm sorry. Maybe you can think happy, warm thoughts and use this post as inspriation as you daydream about the warm weather ensembles you will debut when the temperature catches up to the calendar. I, for one, am very excited about Spring. I love any weather that allows me to either particiapte in #SundressSeason or wear my go-to jeans and a cute tank and sandals. I really love...

Starting With The Woman In The Mirror

Ive “let myself go” recently... havent pampered myself or put much effort into my outward appearance for awhile because I was uncomfortable with my “new body”. I didnt know how to be Courtney anymore because I didnt feel like Courtney anymore. The girl that had hundreds of clothing items has had her closet reduced to a few things that “fit” and a few others she cant bring herself to part with (the local Goodwill dropoff bay has seen me often this year). Im tired of looking in the mirror and not feeling my best. Im tired of just being “okay” with the way I look. Im done being insecure, unsure of myself & weighed down (no pun intended) by the extra pounds. I have to love myself no matter what size I wear. No matter what the scale says. Changes are happening. Mentally. Physically. Emotionally. Im changing. Im caring again. Im going to love myself again. Inside and out. Get ready for a comeback! ...
