"Never trust a girl at Coachella"

--Matoma

So if you've read anything about this ridiculous Fyre Festival nonsense you're probably making the same face I am in that last photo.  I mean, I thought Coachella was ridiculous... I mean I still went.  But so not the point.  Anyway, the point!  Throw out ANYTHING you would, or would have worn to a music festival.  I promise it's garbage.  Let's instead throwback a little to some cute swing dresses and strappy sandals, and, as usual, some red lipstick.  Spring is fully in bloom, it's 80 degrees (if you're in LA) and we can officially pop out those harsh teals and stark whites with no judgment.  Get comfy, get bold, and-- I sound like a Covergirl commercial.  You know what I mean.

Pocketful of Sunshine

Looking for the perfect outfit to go shopping?  My person go-to's are easy to take off skirts or dresses, and button-down shirts that won't get stretched out the more you try on other clothes.  If you're feeling daring, try a pair of heels to add flair and dress up your look just a little bit more!

Red, White, and Stripes

"She is quick, and playful, and curious, and strong."

--Kate Spade

There is nothing more 50s inspired than red, high-waisted, capris.  It also doesn't hurt that they're made by ModCloth, a notoriously vintage site.  Yet, what's amazing about pants like these is that you can play with their kitchiness- making them completely period, or adding a modern twist.  I chose, for once, to mix up eras.  The fuzzy, white sweater is fairly 80s esque and the shoes, though pointed, are fairly modern.  It's an amalgamation of inspirations that create a completely unique effect; me.
