catching up with coachella

I'm sorry for the delay! it now seems Coachella was so long ago, but the weeks since have flown by and I've been busy moving my life back up to uni in Newcastle to prepare for final deadlines that I haven't found any time! My best friend came to visit me and I've loved having her here to gossip, pamper and catch up. Originally a Geordie lass she settled right in so no introductions or guides were necessary. Also, with a laptop near to the ends of its life plus no charger, blogging has certainly been off the table!

But finally, charged up and ready, lets talk Coachella!

Coachella pulls off every year being America's best musical festival, seeing pretty much all our favourite celebrities, bloggers and even designers strutting their stuff in the cleanest field I have ever seen. MUCH different to English Glasto or LoveBox, everyone looks immaculate 98% of the time, has a top to toe 10/10 outfit and never have mud fights. Some may say mud fights are the epitome of any festival, marking it as a friendship finder or stand-out moment of the whole weekend, but personally... I'd rather be looking nice, sipping wine in a clean, sunny field. What would you prefer?

This year Rihanna was caught on camera and splashed out to the papers taking drugs (not like we didn't know) and we were richly entertained by Justin Bieber being kicked out of the festival trying to get into Drake's set, which consisted of Madonna slurping the face off poor Drake in another Madonna moment to be remembered. Drama kicked off as Twitter fued between Khloe Kardashian and Amber Rose broke out into reality when Kendall and friends got Amber kicked out of an exclusive event...eesh. But on a high, Kylie Jen looked her finest at Khloe's Coachella party, setting our summer up for braid mania, teaming hair with coloured extensions, fine braids and feathers! 

Above all we seriously missed Vanessa Hudgens! 

Every year she sets the bar higher as indie goddess but this year we missed out with her starring on broadway. However never fear, be sure to look to her Instagram for summer inspiration as its sure to be booming with style to die for! 

Kendall J, Millie Mackintosh and Jourdan Dunn went with 70s vibes. See Urban Outfitters for your perfect 70s summer wardrobe featuring cute dungarees, lace bralettes and fringed jackets.

Summer screams for colour as Kylie went blue, pink and black for the weekend and Miss Dunn oozed candy floss purple. Beach curls, loose plaits and easy middle partings are set for summers quick hair to go.
