I've been searching for the right camo jacket for some time and was more than happy to find one just in time for fall at Aeropostale. We're still experiencing an Indian Summer here in San Fran, so having a jacket that can transition from day to night is key. It's lightweight enough for warm days, but just warm enough for cool nights - how's that for just right? Also, can we talk about the fit for a moment? Sometimes, it's challenge finding a jacket that's not too boxy. With drawstring ties and a flattering cut, it was easy to cinch the waistline to hug my curves just the way I like. I'm trying to hold on to every last bit of sunshine here in the city, but I know once the fall breeze hits, I'll be wearing this jacket with jeans. For now, I'm taking advantage of the heat and showing my stems some love. 

Coachella 2013 | Day Three

Day Three (also known as the saddest day of Coachella because you have to slowly snap back to reality). On the last day of Coachella, I was running short on time, so I spent what few hours I had left relaxing poolside at the Lacoste L!ve Desert Pool Party (more on this in my next post!). I stuffed myself silly with popsicles, chili fries, street tacos, and ice cream sandwiches, enjoyed a fresh DJ set by Elijah Wood, got my nails done thanks to a fun mani/pedi bar, and sprawled out soaking up the sun.

I made sure to bring my A game to the pool with my Addison NY floral tee and a freshly made DIY flower crown (yes, real flowers!) by Cult Gaia. There's nothing I want more right now than to be back in that desert sun. Talk about withdrawals...

Coachella 2013 | Day Two

Open Knit Top c/o Addison NY; Shorts: Brandy Melville; Bag: H&M; Espadrilles c/o Soludos; DIY Floral Crown (thanks, Kathleen!)

Just when I thought Coachella couldn't possibly get any better, day two came and proved me wrong. It was a glorious day filled with warmth, laughter, and sweet, sweet music. On day two, I saw 2 Chainz, Major Lazer, Grizzly Bear, Benny Benassi (with special guest John Legend), The XX, Phoenix, Janelle Monae, and my favorite act of Saturday's lineup, Moby's DJ Set. PURE GOLD. Nothing can explain the feeling of dancing to good vibes in the Sahara tent, under the desert night sky, with your best friends. Nope - nothing! 

On day two, I wore the cutest open knit sweater (thanks to Addison NY!), printed shorts, comfy espadrilles (thanks to Soludos!), and finished off my look with the quintessential Coachella statement piece - the flower crown. You know you've made it at Coachella, when you're stopped for street style pics (hahaha!). Now...if I could just find out where those pictures ended up! 

Stay tuned, y'all! Day three coming at ya shortly!
