Currently Craving {Coachella Style}

JCrew Panama Hat. Topshop Sunglasses and Lipstick. Deborah Lippmann Nail Polish. Sam Edelman SandalsStella McCartney DressTopshop AviatorsAlexander Wang Backpack. Theyskens' Theory Tank. DIY Cutoffs. JCrew Tank. Dannijo Necklace. Topshop Maxi

My girlfriend recently asked me to help style her for Coachella and while suggesting outfit options I became instantly disappointed that I will not be going. I have decided that in lieu of attending this music festival next weekend I will blast Kings of Leon and prance around my bedroom in my shortest jean shorts (I never get to wear them in San Francisco anyway), a panama hat and aviators. If I was heading down south I would be sure to pack maxi dresses, plenty of light weight tanks, a little Dannijo bling and most importantly paint my nails in Deborah Lippmann's "I know what boys like" periwinkle. I hope this mini packing list helps those who are going... rock on!

Very nice suggestions! I would also maybe suggest cowboy boots instead of sandals just because your feet will get very dirty and stepped on otherwise...I'm so jealous I can't go because my play opens next weekend but my boyfriend and I are sort of addicted to music festivals. Can't believe we're missing it!
Bisous,
Rachel

Perfect packing list!!! And Blasting Kingos of Leon...Can I come?!?! That sounds like a BLAST!!!!!!

Marissa said...

Lusting after both of those maxi dresses. Wish I could add one to my closet. I guess I'll have to settle for the DL nail polish instead. Much more attainable ;)

XXXO

Oh my goodness. I am desperately seeking tickets, and kicking myself for not buying them when I had the chance. I have so many great outfit ideas for Coachella, maybe next year... :(

Caroline said...

I LOVE EVERY ONE of YOUR PICKS!!! Swoon!

What a perfect board for Coachella! I'll admit, I never though I'd be tempted to attend an oversized music festival, but it sounds like it's going to be the most fun weekend of April!

Elisabeth said...

Now you've got me wishing I was going too! Le sigh. Maybe we'll at least get some more warm weather in SF so we can pretend.

Alicia said...

@Elisabeth - I'm crossing my fingers for shorts weather! ;) ha!

Samantha said...

I am all over the wide brim hat and flowing maxi dress, especially paired with those to-die-for sandals. Great picks!

I'm KICKING myself for not getting tickets. Next year we MUST go.

I think we might have to have our own little party, thoughts? We can turn up the heater and dance around with Coronas :)

Have a good weekend.

I'm so craving Coachella style. I promised myself that now that I lived in CA, I'd go this year. But, lo and behold, it snuck up on me and I don't have any plans to head down. Instead, I'll have to live vicariously through style photos. You know, it's funny - festival style probably isn't something I'd usually wear, but I'm still so drawn to it!

I wish I were going to Coachella too! A few friends of mine have gone and they've loved it. This is a great outfit board ... even if it's too cold in SF to wear it. I too, shall prance around at home with the music blasted!

Cheers.

Mary said...

By looking at everything you picked, I wish I was going too! Not for the music, but to wear all those cute pieces! Well done girl!

Kastles said...

This is so fun! I wish I was going, it is right around finals :(
Sam Edelman sandals are my favorite, especially leopard ones :)
And I am going to need to add that Deborah Lippmann my list!

I absolutely adore these picks! I am SO jealous of everyone going to Coachella! But I think I'm going to have to wear everything here regardless - so cute!

Kate said...

Those Sam Edelman sandals are GORGEOUS! For some reason they won't ship those particular ones outside of the US? So strange - but maybe for the best (for my wallet) - so so cute!
