Coachella 2016 Mood Board

2016 wristbands just arrived! I'm very excited for this year's line up, per usual. This will be my 4th Coachella... what a spoiled brat. I got sick in 2012 during my first year, but still had a great time with my boyfriend at the time. The last two years I went with a group of close friends and stayed for free (again, what a spoiled brat) at La Quinta (Thanks Kirs <3). Both years with friends were incredible. You pregame and get on the bus in groups, but in the crowds, you're quite quickly split into groups of 2. When you have a buddy that's on your same wavelength, it makes choosing what stage to go to, etc so carefree.

Rob and I are VIP this year which will make for a different and even better time. Rob is also a massive Coachella veteran. He is even more of a spoiled brat than I am and has gotten his VIP wristbands for free every year (his fam used to own part of the polo fields that Coachella is held on or something).

I get very stressed out about what I'm going to wear each day to the festival. It isn't just about making a statement, it's about being extremely comfortable in whatever I'm going to wear. ACCESSORIZING TO MAKE YOUR OUTFIT IS THE ANSWER. Like you already know, Indio is a desert which means it is scorching hot during the day and most-likely freezing and windy at night. I've been successful in the past of making sure I know what the weather is going to be like so I don't find myself miserably too hot or too cold once I get onto the grounds. This doesn't mean I haven't had to buy a Coachella sweatshirt bc of the windstorms (I don't wear sweats... $65 down the drain). Ugh.

Anyway, we are going weekend 2 (April 22-24th). I get to see my boo Diplo headline TWO nights. I don't know if my heart can take it. Wish me luck.
