🥂 April in Paris 🥂

In hindsight… there was no version of this that was going to be simple 😎

More is More and that especially applies to grand times with great friends so I started The Filling the Nest Supper Club to make sure that happens often.🍽️

And because traveling the globe is never off my mind, I decided to let the monthly themes be inspired by some of our favorite destinations in the world.🌎

We kicked things off with April in Paris —
no flights, no passports… just a really good excuse to gather our favorite people at our forever favorite home base, , and lean all the way in…en Français bien sûr 🇫🇷 (well, at least we tried☺️)

It started with champagne at home under the lights of the Eiffel Tower and ended with a table full of stories, laughter, and absolutely no one in a hurry to leave.

Exactly how an April evening in Paris should go🥂

What a night 💍🥂✨

Absolute perfection from start to finish — the dreamiest weather for an outdoor ceremony, followed by the most incredible “Under the Sea” welcome at the Aquarium. And just when you thought it couldn’t get better… a stunning tent with a hidden private speakeasy inside 🤯 Every moment felt joyful, magical, and so much fun!

Cheers to Samantha & McClain — wishing you a lifetime just as beautiful as this unforgettable beginning 🥂

And the biggest hug of thanks to Mike & Carrie Bach for including us. We loved celebrating with you 🤍

Honored and extremely grateful to be included in the Inaugural Embark Beyond Millionaire Club — a milestone representing $1M+ in travel sold over the past year.

This recognition reflects the incredible community around me.

Deep gratitude to the leadership at Embark Beyond for the vision, support, and trust to build something meaningful and lasting. And to the extraordinary network of hoteliers, service providers, and luxury travel partners around the world — partners who are friends, not just names — I’m so grateful for the connections that somehow make the world feel both smaller and bigger at the same time.

Speaking of partners, to my partner in business and in life, .fowler.99 — thank you for stepping in wholeheartedly and for believing in me and the bigger picture of what we are building.

To our amazing team, and , whose collaboration and support help strengthen everything we do at Filling the Nest, thank you for proving that if you love what you do and who you do it with, you can’t really call it work.

And to our wonderful clients — thank you for trusting us with your time, your celebrations, and your most meaningful moments. Helping you write the next chapter of your travel story is at the heart of everything we do.

Grateful for the journeys behind us, inspired by all the stories still waiting to be written…and proof that whoever said don’t mix business with pleasure was absolutely wrong 🥂✨

Short stays, sweet celebrations,… and the reminder that the best trips don’t have to be far to feel like an escape. A little Gulf Coast escape—easy, breezy, and exactly what we needed. 🌊

PoorKent and I slipped away last night to attend the most beautiful wedding (sadly no photos), and decided to forgo the hotel for a beachfront, pet-friendly retreat down the road, perfectly located for quick access to the celebration, yet somehow mentally miles away down Beach Blvd—quiet, calming, and delightfully removed from the buzz.

And yes… regrettably still accessible for late-night Uber Eats Popeyes because don’t take vacations. 🍗🥂

Proof that even a short Gulf Coast stay can feel like a true reset.🤍

Silver bells rang, glasses clinked, and we coined—and then spent the next day regretting—a brand-new expression: under-cocktailed…and somehow, it was once again the very best day. 🤍

If New Orleans knows how to do one thing right, it’s this—savor every chance to celebrate with friends. (And who am I to mess with tradition?)

Our 4th Annual Krewe des Cloches holiday gathering began at Krewe headquarters with Poor Kent delivering the all-important first toast, followed by Luxury Rides LLC making sure we arrived together and right on cue.

Dinner held court where traditions always linger—at Arnaud’s Restaurant—with a table blooming in signature style thanks to Dunn & Sonnier, who never says no…even when I ask very late in the game.

My vision came to life thanks to table-setting pros Shantel & Gregory of Chapman’s Personal Transportation, who also made sure both the details and the ladies got home safely.

Threaded through it all, as always, was our honorary Krewe member and my spicy friend Vilcy of Specialties by V—making sure our napkins and ribbons were exquisitely monogrammed.

Here’s to ringing bells with these BELLES for years to come.🥂🔔

PoorKent, I know you had no idea what you signed up for but thank you for not bailing once you figured it out.

Every day is better with you❤️

💎 Call Me Alexis 💎
Some icons simply deserve their own post because when it comes to style, subtlety is for Krystle😎

After all the Housewives chaos, it’s only fair that Alexis Carrington Colby Dexter Morell gets her due. There’s been so much curiosity about how this look came together (and quite a few of you challenging me to spearhead the “Bring back shoulder pads and veiled hats!” movement😎) …and I have to admit, I had way more fun than I should have bringing her to life….so let’s break it down.

Inspiration: “Don’t cross me before cocktails.” The courtroom scene — black and white perfection, equal parts Joan Collins elegance and intimidation.

Swipe ➡️ to see the vision board that set the tone: classic glamour, unwavering confidence, and one very large hat that does all the talking.

Because let’s be honest… in the Dynasty universe, justice may be blind,
but she’s definitely wearing couture.

✨ The Look Breakdown:
👒 Hat:
🖤 Veil: I added black birdcage veil fabric from Amazon
🧥 Jacket: vintage I found on
👗 Skirt: vintage I found on (found separately from jacket, I don’t think they were sold together)
👠 Shoes:
🕶️ Sunglasses: vintage Oleg Cassini found on eBay
👜 Clutch: vintage found on Etsy
💎 Earrings: vintage Nolan Miller (he created all the Dynasty costumes🥰) found on eBay

🥂Here’s to a little glamour, a little grit, and a whole lot of Alexis energy — because if you can’t walk into the room like you own the oil company… are you even trying?
