So glad to finally be back home & healthy from Coachella. It was such a wonderful whirlwind of memories that will forever stay with me. Photographed here are little snips of our rad log cabin we rented during the festival. (A dedicated post to said cabin will be coming shortly). Dress of choice was something I've recently unearthed and am so glad to have done so given its shimmery iridescent purple/charcoal colour and how super easy it is. Bought it numerous years ago but am happy to see that it's still available! That's what I love about American Apparel. These mules are current season Zara and am in love with the fact that I can give my ankles a rest from the many convoluted straps they're usually in. That's my mule theory.

P.S. I've added an Ask.fm for a more interactive comment section experience! So ask away.

I just got back to LA from Hong Kong and to really 'America' things up for me we took to the batting cages and arcade games at Castle Park in Sherman Oaks. It was here that I discovered my hidden talent (or beginners luck) at skee-ball. The only thing better about the fact that I can now gloat about this is that the horrible 90's carpeting went so well with my equally dated 1998/99 outfit details. See spaghetti straps, athletic shorts, and chokers for more proof. Of course they've all been updated a little & my hair no longer carries those awful yet awesome butterfly clips but the same essence still remains. In addition I put on my new virgin white creepers reminiscent of Japanese uwabaki to really make it seem like high school again.
