A Queen without a King

General

 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.

A Foreign Land

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…

PALM SPRINGS: The Threadsence House

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 🙂

Be sure to visit the Threadsence blog to watch our house videos, shop, and see all the updates on COACHELLA, my absolute favorite music festival! My friends at Threadsence nail it every time.

COACHELLA: American Rebel

I cannot even begin to describe Coachella! I had the most amazing, unforgettable time. It was one big CALIFORNIA DREAM. Surrounded by all of my favorite people in one place, soaking in the hot sun, and dancing along to all my favorite bands took up my entire weekend. Very little sleep was also on the agenda as I was always the first one up in the house, ready to go, go, go. When there’s music involved, I’m always a little crazy!! I have so so many stories to tell you! There’s just something about the desert that I love. The open, calm roads and endless rows of palm trees. California warms my heart. Plus, what I love about Coachella is getting to wear all of my favorite hippie separates. This one day I went with high waisted mint green pants, a rock n’ roll tee, and floral kimono. All I’m missing is some flowers in my hair.

I want to tell you so much more, but I’ve got to literally leave on the first flight back to NYC in a few minutes!! For now, I want to share with you just a bit of California love. I listen to this whenever I head back home…

Many more photos to come! There’s a lot hat came with this weekend!
