It is music festival season...you know what that means. COACHELLA!!! 

The Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival is an annual music festival held over two weekends in Indio, just east of Palm Springs. This insanely fun festival is held over two weekends. This year weekend one is April 13–15, 2018 and weekend two is April 20–22, 2018.

To commemorate one of my favorite places in Cali (and, let's face it, a darn good music festival) I am releasing a new earring: The Coachella Earring. Just in time to make your last minute fashion preparations for a weekend of desert, tunes, and limitless fashion potential.

THE PERECT LONG DANGLE FESTIVAL EARRING
The Coachella Gemstone Leather Earring is crafted by hand in our Southern Cali studio. Its made with a rustic honey brown leather, solid 14k gold filled chain, findings and hooks. The beads are genuine turquoise, howlite and wood. It's a perfect accessory for your inner boho goddess, while still remaining understated with the beautiful worn like of the leather, created by the striations and creases throughout. 

And because I'm such a sucker for desert fashion, I've created my own "Must Have" list for this year's Coachella Music Festival. Imagine this special release earring paired with the following trending festival fashions.

THE KIMONO

The Reason the kimono is so popular this season is because it is the perfect item to drape over your crocheted crop top, knitted bathing suit top, or vintage American Apparel bodysuit (R.I.P American Apparel.) The kimono is a lightweight, easy to remove accessory which is multi-purpose. It helps keep those rays from resting those sensitive shoulders, and it makes you look like an international superstar. 

THE HAT
Another multi-purpose accessory must-have in Coachella Valley is a hat. Not just any hat...one that will protect your face, but also make a statement. You can go with a boho floppy sun hat. A satin baseball cap, or something a little more...spectacular. 

THE COWGIRL BOOT
You're heading to the desert lady, you're going to need better protection than a flip flop. But you can still get a crown hmm'ing and hawing over your boots. Check out these insanely fabulous Lace Up Western Boot from Free People.

THE FRINGE JEAN SHORTS
It's a Coachella classic that never goes out of style: the cut off, ripped, needs a belt cuz it looks like it might have belonged to your boyfriend at one point, pair of jeans. I mean, what else are you going to pair your new western boots with? Big bonus: cut off jeans are fun to wear, anytime, anywhere. Just...especially to Coachella Valley. 

THE BRIGHT COLORED SUNGLASSES
It is both hot and dusty at Coachella -- sunglasses are pretty much essential. I've seen many chic sunnies there, and these are my favorite looks for 2018. Cat eye, and bright colored. Sign. Me. Up. 

THE OFF THE SHOULDER RUFFLE TOP
It's inevitable, one of your staple pieces at Coachella is going to be some form of white crop top, bikini, halter, or ruffly top. You are going to want some kind of white outfit to balance out the colors in your self-made flower crown (I see you Coachella Babe.) Check out this one-shouldered top from MadeWell. (Fun fact: It is currently 30% off!!!)

THE GLOW
You are going to want to sunscreen it up if you're heading to the land of sand and palms. But you can gloss over that SPF with some addition glow with this Tom Ford Shimmering Body Oil. Warning: It's pricy. But it is stunning on! People will be asking you how you managed to look like a glowing Egyptian goddess. And you can just answer "It's cuz I'm fabulous boo." ........"And also Tom Ford's Soleil Blanc....but mostly because I'm fabulous."
