If you catch me out on the "weekend", I'm usually wearing some variation of this look. Don't judge me but this look is super comfortable. It's especially perfect for traveling and shopping. Easy in and easy out! Seriously, TSA has nothing on me when I'm wearing this.

I, also, have this dress in black and I feel like I should have gotten about five more! It's the perfect length hitting right below the knee and did I mention that it was comfortable? Yeah, I'm in love.

I clearly love this Parker blazer and black and white shoes. I love this Parker blazer WITH black and white shoes. I love shoes. I love blazers. I love love.

Wait…

This time, I paired the blazer with an easy breezy seersucker Mossimo romper (yes, from Target) along with these Pour La Victoire Jemmy oxfords. They give me life, do you understand? Life. Like, I whisper sweet nothings to their soles and dream about the next time that we will be together.

I wish I could give you this feeling...

This week I'm hyper-focused on prepping for Coachella. I'm T-3 days out from the much anticipated road trip to Palm Springs. I'm a first timer and I'm completely and absolutely not sure of what to expect. More importantly, I have no idea what I'm wearing. I seriously don't have even a little bit of a clue. I'll go sit on the floor of my closet until it comes to me. 

Thanks to Instagram, I've been able to see what people wore last weekend and I've been taking notes. All week, I've been looking at pieces and calling them "so Coachella". Used in a sentence, "These clear sunglasses are so Coachella."

Here's my first attempt at a look that may be "so Coachella" (minus the wedges, of course).

Shoes: L.A.M.B., Bag: Courtesy of Halston Heritage, Sunglasses: Marni for H&M,  Cuff: Mango
