Thanks for getting this stuck in my head Minh….

obsessed: Essie - Nice is Nice

I am in LOVE with this color! I bought it two days ago and the second I got home that day I had to put it on. It looks great with my pale skin tone but I also feel like it would look equally as great on any skin tone. It is the prefect color for spring and it will brighten up your day for sure!

coachella - day three

Ugh, I know that Coachella was forever ago but I never posted day three! Before I went to the actual event I went to The Ace to swim and I realized while looking at this picture that I am paler then I thought! I like it though, but it did take me by surprise! Everyone around me is sooooo tan!

HEALTH was awesome! They played a new song that the crowd seemed to enjoy. I haven't gone down to the front of the stage see them play in years and it was really nice to watch them without getting smushed by their fans dancing and moshing all over the place. 

Duran Duran was really really really great. They played all of their hits and I couldn't stop dancing!

I have never seen Lightning Bolt before but I gotta say that I am now a fan. I almost fell flat on my back backstage while watching them - the floor was very slippery!

When I was back in the artist's area I got to meet some of Kanye West's ballerinas! They were all getting ready to go on and they were so super nice and sweet!

The palm trees in the artist's area looked super pretty at night!

Kanye was super super super amazing! I never realized how many of his songs that I knew until I started singing along to all of them hahahaha. I am kinda disappointed that no one came on to sing with him and that there was no big finish at the end but I am really happy that I got to see him perform because if he never played at Coachella then I probably would have never seen him perform at all.

HAPPY EASTER

coachella - day two

Day two of Coachella was really great - even though I didn't end up actually getting there until 4ish. I woke up really late, went swimming at the palm springs house, had a back yard bbq and got to the festival just in time to see all of the bands that I wanted to see. 

I was soooo excited to see Lil' B! I only got to catch 2 songs but he was awesome. Can you believe that he is my age?

I was backstage for about half of Animal Collective's set. It was really cool watching them from that angle and seeing the HUGE crowd in front of them. They didn't play any hits though, all of the songs were new songs. Well, they did play three hits but they arranged them differently and they sounded completely different - and not in a good way. Oh! and Danny Devito was standing next to me. I never would of thought that he was an Animal Collective fan....

Day three of Coachella coming soon!!!

coachella - day one

I went to Coachella over the weekend for the first time ever. It was so much fun! My boyfriend's band played so I got an artist's pass and got to backstage for any band that I wanted to! But some were so crazy crowded that I didn't even bother to even try. Here are some of the pictures that I were able to take on the first day: 

Odd Future was great! I have never seen them before but now I would love to see them again. In the middle of their set they all started stage diving - feet first. Saw some kid get carried away with a bloody nose and with a mouth full of blood. If you ever see them live, keep that in mind. 

I only watched Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti for a few songs - I was super hungry! With that said, get the chips and guac if you go next year, it is soooo good! 

Interpol had the 14 year old me screaming! I got pretty close considering that the crowd was HUGE!

Cut Copy was amazing amazing amazing! I have never seen that many people dancing like crazy before! Can't wait to go see them again! If you have never seen them live then I HIGHLY recommend that you do. 

Not that great of a photo of Crystal Castles but I was so tired and I just wanted to sit down that I only took a couple of pics. They were great by the way. So stoked that they got to play a big stage but super bummed that Alice's ankle is still busted. 

So that's all of the photos for day one. Photos of day two coming soon!!!
