Living under a perpetual rain cloud in the Pacific Northwest, I cannot wait to soak in some vitamin D by the time April rolls around. Thirsty for some fun in the sun, this year I began swimsuit shopping early and booked a last minute getaway to sunny Palm Springs. My bestie was already en route from L.A., and we had The Parker booked, my all-time fave design hotel. Being Coachella weekend, we also had a ton of events and #CoachellaVibes to look forward to! Check it out and start non-planning your next last-minute getaway! xx
PSP: Love the open air style of Palm Springs airport.
We kicked off Coachella weekend (and rosé season) at The Blonde Salad Pool Party at #hotelREVOLVE aka Arrive Hotel, hosted by blogger Chiara Ferragni with a special performance by rapper A$AP Ferg!
Night one led us to 'Rhonda: Queen of the Desert' at the Palm Springs Air Museum. The expansive airplane hangar was complete with vintage planes and staged in a decor hardcore fashion, think beautifully deranged, unapologetically campy. Shout out to the organizers, A Club Called Rhonda for the iconic settings and house lineup, including Solomun, Dixon, and Doc Martin.
After warming up at the Amex Platinum House, we attended ZOEasis: an Amalfi-inspired retreat hosted by Rachel Zoe of The Zoe Report at the Colony 29 estate in Palm Springs. Complete with braid bar, facial treatments, nail art, gelato carts, and stylish cocktails, this party had it all—including the dreamy setting.
