Splurge vs. Save: Coachella Brunch Inspired Edition

Apr 14, 2016


Why hello there old friend, long time no share. Let me tell you, when you work a full time job, go to grad school, and workout with a personal trainer three nights a week, AND its crappy weather out: that is no bueno for blogging. 

Lucky are those bloggers that don't have a actual in-office job that can photograph three outfit changes a day or travel the world for their husbands jobs and take fab pictures, but guess what people, as the Campbell's commercial says, this is real, real life (in Cleveland for me at least). 

The good news however is now that the semester is winding down, the weather is getting warmer and it isn't pitch black out at 7 pm, that means I can start doing photo shoots again! yay! I have a very exciting but busy summer ahead with a lot of weddings, showers, parties, and even a blogger's fashion meet and greet, which I'm pretty pumped for so that means lots a great outfits. In the meantime, Coachella starts today and even though it may get a bad rap on social media as rich LA girls pretending to be desert nymphs for a weekend, my inner hippie loves Coachella (even though now that I think about it I really do hate the heat. and dusty wind. and crowds of annoying people). Even though it isn't practical to wear a white dress in the muddy/dusty desert, here is a look that be worn to those exclusive Coachella parties in a plush carpeted cabana, or at least, out to brunch here at home.  XO.
