Uniform

Levi's jacket, Alternative Apparel tank, Uniqlo jeans, Seychelles sandals, American Apparel clutch, Gap hat, H&M necklace, Marc Jacobs watch, thrifted silver rings

A little denim on denim. A little neon. A cuff here and there.
That's mostly what I've been wearing the past few weeks.

And this clutch has been one of my favorite pieces lately. It feels very liberating to not have a bag on my shoulder. And you'd be very surprised at how much it can hold.

Coachella Dreaming

I haven't been able to stop thinking about Coachella lately. I've been daydreaming at work, on the subway, everywhere really...

I wish I was going this weekend (or next) but tickets sold out before I could get my hands on them. If I were going though... this is what I would be wearing.

I've been to Coachella once before and here are a few pointers on what to wear and carry with you:

- Be comfortable and dress for the Cali dessert (shorts, tank tops, flat sandals, sunglasses)

- Wear inexpensive items that you wont mind getting a bit dirty (you'll be walking on grass/dirt all day and when people start dancing the dirt will kick up and get everywhere)

- Don't carry a big bag. If possible- don't carry a bag at all. Stuff your pockets/small sling bag with just the bare essentials (cell, cash, hand sanitizer, lip gloss, tissues/napkins)

- If you have time... collect & pack a few bottle caps (different sizes too) from plastic bottles because the vendors will often throw out the bottle caps from drinks they sell you (in order to keep you coming back for more).

And most importantly-- have fun & dance the weekend away.

Over Easter weekend I found this gorgeous melon colored dress at my parent's house. I'm guessing my mom wore it back in the late '70s. The color and midi length were right on trend for spring, and it fit me perfectly.

It was a bit of a windy day so it probably wasn't the greatest time to wear it, but I was too excited about it to wait any longer.

And I'll leave you with my unavoidable Marilyn moment:

Dear Zara... Love, NY

The new Zara store on 5th avenue is incredible. It's big, spacious, neat, & has just about everything you see on their website. For those of you who shop at Zara and live in/visit NYC- you need to check out the new location.

I picked up the following pair of floral pants and skirt -
