2013 Festival Fashion Faves

It's hard to believe, but Coachella is fast approaching! I'm just now realizing I haven't even begun to think about what I'm going to wear this year. So I created a festival fashion board to get my ideas rolling and perhaps inspire you for whatever fun outdoor events you may be going to!

Tie it up that dirty desert hair: knot headbands

Fashion made simple: rompers

The dance party never stops: wild printed tights

I dare you to try: hot pink lips

Make your own music: stacked bracelets

Desert rock goddess: studded ankle boots

Go bigger, brighter & rounder: statement glasses

Grandpa approved: bomber jackets

This Weekend: Renegrade Craft Fair

Excited about this...

Especially because of this...

Unique LA: Spring 2011

So excited for this! I've gone the past two years and have had so much fun each time! Unique LA is held downtown at the California Market Center. The miniscule cost of $10 gets you a full day of entertainment, arts, crafts, shopping and free drinks provided by IZZE! There's awesome food there too. I tried my very first avocado popsicle last year which turned out to be surprisingly tasty. If you decide to go Saturday, May 7th you can get or make something special for Mom, because Mother's Day is that Sunday! How perfect is that?

Vendors Shown: Wolfum, Sass & Peril, Stacey Winters, Homako, Graf & Lantz
