My Christmas Gift To You...

I hope everyone has had a wonderful beginning to the Holiday season! I sure have! My Thanksgiving look came out just the way I had hoped and I was even able to help others with their looks as well. 

Outfit Deets: Chambray Shirt (Target.. Less than $10!). Lock and Key Necklace (Victoria's Secret). Box Pleat Skirt (Boohoo.com. $16). Gold Cap Toe Pumps (Bakers. $25). Earrings (Versona. $4). Watch (Tradwr's Village. $5). Fedora (My sister's closet. Free. LOL) 


My stepdad decided to interrupt my photoshoot... 

We've gotten through Thanksgiving and Black Friday so now everyone is running around, crowding retail stores and streets/interstates trying to get their Christmas gift shopping completed. I started months ago so I'm down to my last couple of gifts and I get to focus on other things...like, what I'm going to wear on Christmas day.

I was inspired by the iconic Gwen Stefani for my Christmas look this year. I found my inspiration a couple months ago so I already have all the pieces necessary to make my dreams, umm I mean, outfit a reality. I even put together my 9 year old goddaughter's Christmas look as well. Shes just as excited as I am. Just wait for the fierceness!

I know finding inspiration for looks can be exhausting and overwhelming for some. Believe me, its one of the reasons I start looking so far in advance for many of my looks. If you're anything like my sister Kelly then you definitely arent interested in searching for (or even shopping for) looks. Well, never fear! I am here to help! Consider it my Christmas gift to you!

I have put together several looks that can be used for inspiration for your Christmas ensemble. Much like the looks I shared for Thanksgiving, these vary from casual to more formal attire. 

So turn on some Christmas music, pour yourself some eggnog and get inspired! 




Even though the focus of this post is fashion, dont forget the most important thing about this holiday season: spreading love and cheer. Be a gift to others and ensure that everyone around you is having a very Happy Holiday season. 

Love, 
Coco

Put Some Spring In Your Step

Even though it won’t officially be spring for another month, the warm weather we are experiencing is making everyone shed their winter wardrobe and step out in spring & summer friendly looks. I’m a little reluctant because I like to wait until the official first day of spring to bring out my sandals and shorts. However, I am already looking at various stores, websites, and catalogs for the latest spring and summer shoe styles. The new styles are tempting me to throw my boots and closed-toe shoes to the back of the closet and bring out my sandals! I would seriously go broke if I bought every pair of new shoes that I have loved recently. Fortunately, I am able to display some restraint and just love them from afar. Here are a few of the styles that I was tempted by and the websites/brands whose new spring/summer styles are worth checking out if you are updating your shoe collection!  This zig-zag heel is EVERYTHING! Makes what would otherwise be a basic black sandal, into a sho...

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...

Whats Up With Coco?

Halfway through my final semester of undergrad! (insert applause and cheers here) I am counting down the days and keeping my eye on the prize! Business plans, papers and tests have kept my mind going! Im telling you, I am so ready to have that degree handed to me on May 18th. All my blood, sweat, and tears (literally) will finally seem worth it. I already have my cap, gown, graduation dress/shoes, and I am currently planning the after-graduation celebration! I. AM. READY!           7 weeks of class left & 70 days til graduation! Yesterday I was able to register for my first 3 grad school classes! That was surreal. Grad school definitely was not on my "To-Do" list! However, the closer I got to my last semester, the more I realized I still needed to learn more so that I could feel more prepared for the "real world". Well, that extra learning will begin on May 14th. Yes, 4 days before my undergrad graduation I will begin grad school...
