Coachella Envy

Today is the first day of Coachella!  For those who don't know, Coachella is a music and arts festival that takes place in Indio, California every year around this time.  It's kinda like, Woodstock meets Warped Tour meets Electric Zoo, but with a lot more Free People style mashed in there.  This year it's taking place over the span of two weekends, from Friday-Sunday {this weekend and next}.  Guests camp out in the valley at night in between days for the whole weekend.

There's going to be over 100 artists performing at Coachella this year, but some that you've probably heard of include The Black Keys, Radiohead, Florence & The Machine, Avicii, & Calvin Harris, to name a few.  Other than the awesome music, another fun part about Coachella is the celebrities that attend.  Some of my favorites are always in attendance, like Lauren Conrad, Vanessa Hudgens, Lo Bosworth, and Whitney Port. It's also really fun to see what everyone's wearing.  It's not a fashion event, but I share similar style with the kind of people who go to Coachella, so it's fun to see pictures afterwards of what everyone wore.

Just wishing that I could be at Coachella right now.  It's going to be streaming live on YouTube the entire weekend, so we can all watch from home and be jealous that we're not actually there.  One day..

Tuesday Travels

This Tuesday was a little more laid back than our usual rendezvous across the city.  We spent the afternoon at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.  But knowing us, of course it was anything but laid back.  We bring the fun wherever we go.

It wasn't even five minutes into our trip that my sunglasses decided to fall into the toilet.  Totally gross.  After a good ten minutes of scrubbing and sanitizing, we were off.  Our first stop was the news stand for lotto tickets.  Sam's trying her luck and playing the mega millions!  While she picked her numbers, we made a friend.. shout out to Skinny Man!

Then we took what felt like the longest cab ride ever over to the museum.  I have to say that I'm the kind of person that goes into a museum for one thing and then dashes right back out.  {Just because we're art students, doesn't mean we like to spend our free time marveling at statues and ancient paintings}.  But I actually found myself enjoying it. Big shocker.  I almost wish we had more time to walk around and see more exhibits.  The museum is truly beautiful.

The time passed pretty quickly and before we knew it, it was time to head back to class.  We got stuck in traffic but paid no mind as we marveled at the amazing shopping as we rode down 5th Ave.

So, maybe our Tuesday wasn't as thrilling as usual, but sometimes its nice to just have a relaxing afternoon.  Overall it was a fun time :)
