In the past two years, I've developed a growing interest in Broadway and musical theatre. So naturally, I've discovered new people to become a fan of as well as new people to feature here on my blog. Courtney Reed is one of those people. While I've never actually seen her in a musical or Broadway show, I have seen her perform in a Broadway Princess Party, which is basically a cabaret show/concert full of princess songs. You may remember the show/her from my blog post all about it from nearly a year ago!

Reed is best known as Broadway's original Princess Jasmine from Aladdin: The Musical, and she has honestly become one of my favorite people ever. Not only do I feel like we are quite similar (we love pink, rose gold, Princess Jasmine of course, lipstick, and fashion), but she's an overall wonderful person. She's super talented on and off-stage. She's a girl boss and began her own jewelry/apparel company called Gagged Chokers and is just killing the game at living out her dreams.
So in honor of her birthday on August 10 (I'm starting the celebration early), I'm featuring Courtney as one of my style icons. But I'm doing something a little different than I have with others I've featured as a style icon on here. Not only am I featuring some of my favorite outfits she's worn, but I'm also featuring a few of her Gagged products she's created/designed.
I love jumpsuits, and this purple one is just so cute and fun! The wide legs add some flair, and the ruffles on the straps are adorable. The purple color is great for spring and summer, as is the big sunhat. The pointed toe heels kick the outfit up a notch but still keep the outfit pretty casual.
