Festival Style: Coachella Ed.

With Coachella right around the corner (16 days to be exact), I thought I'd put together my picks for festival wear. One thing I love about festival season (let alone summer), is that it brings out my inner bohemian & hipster style. Layering pieces, arm parties & bands, distressed cutoffs, lace, crop tops, gladiators w. flower crowns, headpieces & turbans to top off my look. As everyone knows, Free People is ALWAYS my go-to for bohemian chic. I know that it's not always the most affordable but the great thing about any boho hipster style is that you can mix & match & layer. I love seeing how eclectic peoples' styles are at Coachella. Everyone pulls out all the stops to achieve and showcase their best festival styles & looks. Listed below are some of my Coachella Ed. festival style picks.

Polo Ralph.

 

I love Menswear! Who doesn't? Leave it to Ralph! Ralph Lauren kills it with his Polo Great Outdoors Collection. The combination of vibrant serape prints mixed in with cozy Southwestern-inspirations and an added touch of chambray just makes this collection rustic and flawless. Layer layer layer! You can never go wrong with layering and these prints and color combinations make it effortless. What I like about this collection is that it completely breaks free from the classic yet standard Polo preppy style. Here are a few key pieces from the Great Outdoors collection that I absolutely love.

  

 

 

Shawl- Collar Serape Cardigan- $695

 

Custom-Fit Western Chambray- $125

DC Day.

#CANDID

 

This polar vortex just won't quit. Taking a look back at J's & my DC date 2 weekends ago w. amazingly gorgeous weather. We started our day at the Corcoran Gallery of Art which was something I really wanted to check out before it closes. {On Feb. 19th, the Corcoran had announced that their museum would be closing & taken over by the National Art Gallery & GWU.} The Salon Dore was my favorite part of the gallery w. it's enormous glass mirrors, intricately carved paneling & beautiful ceiling murals all covered in white & gold. The Salon Dore looked like it was taken right out of the Palace of Versailles. It's no MoMA {Museum of Modern Art; NYC}, but another DC favorite of mine is the Hirsshorn Museum & Sculpture Garden on Independence. You should check it out if you have a chance! With the Corcoran's location right on 17th Street NW, we decided to stroll down a couple blocks to the World War II Memorial. After soaking up all the sun & sights, we made our way to Georgetown for a little bit of shopping & grabbed a bite to eat at Café Asia in Rosslyn.
