For any car lovers, Palm Springs is the best place to car watch. I mean look at this vintage Porche! So naturally in spotting it an impromptu photo shoot is in order.
Easily one of my most complimented items during Coachella was my Forever 21 Glam Girl Earcuff ($8.80). Earcuff’s a such a fun extra accessory, especially for music festivals, they bring so much to an outfit without even trying. I also debuted my new Botkier Honore Small Hobo Bag at Coachella and I am beyond in love with it. It’s one of those perfect size crossbody bags, where everything fits in it and I felt very LA chic in it. That bag is definitely my new it bag for summer.
