...tis the season to be jolly!

When the holiday season comes around, things tend to get a little hectic in my household! Between hosting a Christmas Eve party for my closest friends, shopping, working, helping my Mommy play Santa for my little cousins, and SO much more, I haven't had a chance to breathe! The days after Christmas and before New Years are always relaxing! These past couple days, I've been eating and consuming lots of wine! The epitome of a fabulous holiday to me! I'll post tomorrow about my New Years goals and encourage all of you to write some down as well. Have a blessed, safe, memorable New Year's Eve!

Love and Kisses,
Courtney J

Welp, so much for keeping up with this blog in a timely fashion! My computer was out of commission for a couple of days, making it so difficult to do anything! I did however get hit pretty hard with a strand of the flu which means while taking 3 medications at time, I was NOT concerned with not being able to use my computer! Anyhoo, I am officially in NOLA for the holidays and I couldn't be more excited. Today my dad and I sat around eating and listening to Christmas songs AND he managed to fix whatever was wrong with my computer. I am back in action ladies and gents!!

I don't have a real outfit post so I decided to do a mini collage of my last few Instagram posts to give you a glimpse of what has been going on in my life. I got this idea from one of my favorite blogs A Love Affair With Fashion. Check out her amazing style ya'll! And check me out on Instagram: CoCoCoCourtney!

The above pictures are of my fellow fashion student friends and our professors at our end of the year Christmas Party. The dress I'm wearing is one made by one of my close friends and classmates, Josh Ford. You guys will definitely see his name one day!

The first picture was taken at work. On Fashionista Friday as we call it, we are allowed to dress a little bit crazier than normal! That day I chose to head towards the 70's! Wildly printed pants, bright yellow top, and a big ole fur! Life doesn't get better than that! The next picture is one of my besties, Angel and me on our way out!

My best friend, Kelsey, and I hadn't been hanging out as much due to life being SO stressful so we made up for lost time at dinner. Next, is my morning coffee and Advil on a rainy morning. What a lovely day!

This David Yurman bracelet is one I have been admiring and saving for! It's so chic and classic and I can't wait until the day until I can take it home. Underneath, is a "family portrait" of some my closest friends during a graduation celebration. 

During my sick days, I took pictures of my beautiful friends on their way out while drinking some yummy hot chocolate out of this very, very cool mug. 

The meal of the sickly and the quote of my life. 

These pictures were taken at our BCBG Christmas dinner! We gathered at Walk On's with arm loads of gifts and ready for lots of laugh, drinks, and yummy food!

More pictures continued! Don't you love the one of me sipping on my Strawberry martini and holding my new BCBGMaxAzria pink mini envelope clutch that my fabulous Secret Santa gave me?

Finally Home Sweet Home! I'm relaxing on my mom's new  sofa with my sweet, little SandyPants.  
Love and Kisses,
