…Cause Coachella 

Every time around this time of year, the festival of music known as Coachella is highlighted. In instances where those of us from other areas can’t attend, the music and vibes are still shares via social media and air waves. Of course, I’m likely not able to attend this year as I wasn’t able to attend last year due to current circumstances and priorities. However, that doesn’t mean that I can’t wear a Coachella inspired look.

I think we all (who are acquainted with Coachella) know the “typical” attire that seems to be worn to the festival. Well I guess my look today can be Coachella-wear derived. I’m a style chameleon, not allowing people to label me nor try to identify my style. I like what I like, that’s my style. Sometimes a boho look tickles my fancy.

So shopping online, actually on eBay, I happened upon one of my favorite jewelry and accessories seller’s page. That’s where I fell in love with a beautiful necklace (which I’m wearing in this look). My cardigan is also from eBay, and I love it! The color compliments my skin tones and offers that boho pop of color against the nude of my dress. The crochet lace gives softness to the cardigan, offering a feminine touch to the entire look. My glasses are meant to pop against the nude just like my necklace and cooling down the warmth of this outfit. I initially thought about wearing my fringe bag but thought the fringe would detract from the floral design of my cardigan. Instead, I opted for my simple black clutch to sort of ground the look in an underwhelming manner and also bridge the “gap” of my sandals to the rest of my outfit. Needless to say, I was inspired to do this look cause Coachella…

Later Cupcakes! 💋

So I Missed Coachella…

Coachella was this past weekend and I missed it lol. Just kidding. I live in Michigan and due to life’s responsilbilities, I was at home…in Michigan both weekends lol. Anyhoo, in the spirit of Coachella, I decided to dress the part when we had 75 degree weather. My clothing pieces were purchased from a few places I don’t normally shop but will start to. I am learning my body all over again (due to weight loss and continuing a self-made health/fitness program) and I am back in the process of re-learning and developing my style. I realize that not everything in fashion that I love will look good on me nor compliment my body. (I will discuss this in a later post). I absolutely loved my outfit and am quite proud of this post! One of these years, I will attend Coachella but for now I’ll just look the part!

Peace!
