Back at Coachella, I spent a little too much time in our Palm Springs backyard, basking in the sun, overlooking all that’s below. But even the incredible views and swimming pool didn’t keep me from jumping on the next shuttle en route to INDIO, where all the bands played. With the ferris wheels, makeshift domes, and psychedelic square patios, the Coachella grounds were like a whole different universe. It was the perfect, peaceful break from my crazy NYC life. And finally, the tan is starting to show up on my skin! All I felt like wearing were rocker tees with an insane amount of holes, funky little floral shorts, and the Muubaa red leather (which I never let leave my side). My wrists held jewels that I gathered throughout the trip and of course, my right arm displayed the wild amount of wristbands collection from the shows. Music festival season is indeed my favorite time of year. Though New York just decided to get all cold and rainy, summer is slowly creeping closer and closer. I can’t wait for the day I can once again slip into a tiny pair of shorts and some killer lace-up boots.

 Happy Happy Saturday everyone! It’s about time I actually spent a weekend here in NYC. I’m always gone visiting friends, or just downright not here for some reason or another. Remember? I hate staying in one place for too long therefore, I’ve shamelessly become a pro at packing suitcases. But I’m super stoked to take on the city this weekend. These rock n’ roll babes have inspired me to be young, wild, and free. Leather, denim, and loose long dirty locks are the epitome of effortless cooooool. I’m swooning.

Coachella, and just being out in the middle of nowhere, really got me to play around with all sorts of prints and cuts. I fell in love with this Free People piece the moment I laid eyes on it. The exposed belly and voluminous skirt was just perfect for that gypsy sort of feel I was going for. Plus, it was killer to dance in. All I’m seeing is blue and I love it. It’s one of those pieces that could be something a girl living in the desert her whole life made with her own two hands. It’s that good! I already miss you Palm Springs with your endless rows of mountains, cactus, and clear skies. I’d soak in your sun any day…

Spending my time in Palm Springs at the Threadsence house was just pure insanity…and PURE BLISS. The house was killer. Perched high up on a mountain, overlooking all of Palm Springs, it was our little mystical desert retreat. And oh yeah, we had about 12 people staying with us. Talk about a party! Once the hot sun woke me up, I was first in the kitchen, fetching us all some coffee (so much needed to get us through the long Coachella afternoons) and of course, kicked on the stove top for some all American breakfast. I swear we had every single delicious (cough, cough processed) piece of food from Costco in the fridge. It’s the only way to go during a roadtrip, agreed?

Us girls always found ourselves by the pool, wearing probably some of the craziest outfits known to man. The dudes, on the other hand, thought jumping from the roof into the pool was more fun. Our rooms were covered with clothes. Clearly, we all overpacked. Floral shorts here, bikini tops there. The place was a mess! Together, situated by the pool, overlooking the mountains, I got a very Valley of the Dolls vibe. Retro, vintage, and oh so…California. Threadsence, you do us well 🙂
