One of Kelly's favorite parties of the season was
the New Year's Eve brunch held in her honor
at Galatoire's. I have to say, it was one of my
favorites too. It was simple, relaxed, and personal. There
was something extremely festive about enjoying a French
Quarter balcony on a sparkling New Year's Eve day, when
normally my focus would be only about the big night
ahead. And I wasn't alone in welcoming a laid-back party
at the end of the busy holiday season. I know that Kelly
enjoyed the breather and the quality time with high school
friends who she doesn't get to see as often now that they are
all off to college.
The highlight of the brunch was the array of head turning
headpieces made by Bryan. "The glittery hats were Uncle
B's idea," says Kelly. "He is so talented. The glitz and
glam headpieces he made were the talk of the day. Bailey
helped coordinate the hats with each girl's dress. It made
the party all the more unique and special. Where else
would this ever happen, but New Orleans?" It's a town
that treasures all things glitzy and we don't take ourselves
