New This Week: 3.1 Phillip Lim Summer

Coming this week: 3.1 Phillip Lim Summer!

Ya, you might neeedd one of those necklaces. So cool!

Coachella 2011

Even scorching temperatures of 110 degrees weren’t enough to stop music lovers and celebs alike from letting loose and forgetting about the real world at this past weekend’s annual Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival.

Every year, Coachella seems to be just as much about seeing and being seen in bohemian, breezy outfits as watching your favorite bands perform- so much so that the event seems to have created its own distinctive fashion vibe. Maxi skirts, straw fedoras, piles of bracelets, printed silk tops and the ubiquitous bikini-as-underwear look are all staples of a girl’s Coachella wardrobe.
Celebrities like Diane Kruger, Malin Akerman, Whitney Port and Busy Phillips were effortlessly chic as they breezed between pool parties, the VIP beer garden, and backstage areas.

At Coachella, though, you don’t have to be on the A-list to make a sartorial splash. Almost everywhere you looked, there were carefree combinations of prints and stacks of jewelry. Enough to make us wish every weekend was Coachella!

One thing’s for sure, we’re starting our quest for three days of perfectly bohemian outfits for next year’s festival today.

If next year is as hot as this year was, I’ll want this lightweight Myne Camilla dress to throw on over a Lover bikini. Pair that with a floppy straw hat, leather gladiators, and piles of jewelry and viola!

Actually, with Summer arriving any day now, I might just have to rock this outfit a bit sooner and have it remind me of those amazing 3 days in the desert.

Just In: Myne Spring '11

Can you say SPRING?! New Myne just arrived! Prints prints and more prints. So pretty and fresh. We are loving the wild flower print (pic 2). Just girly enough.

Catherine's Picks: Grays and Whites

Since Spring has officially made itself at home in LA, it's time to bring soft and light favorites into our wardrobes. I am loving staple pieces in dreamy grays, like this ever popular IRO Agnette jacket, Kimberly Ovitz dress, T by Alexander Wang tank, and my personal fave - the Sedgwick tie dye clutch. Add a bit of whimsical edge with the Luv AJ Fool's Gold ring and nail polish in Essie's Sand Tropez. xo, Catherine

T by Alexander Wang

Catherine's Pick: Mike Gonzalez 3 in One Dress

I'm a sucker for anything multi-functional. Not only do you get multiple pieces for the price of one (hey, excuses are always nice to have up your sleeve), but they are fun to style in different ways to showcase your creativity. That's why I'm obsessing over this new Mike Gonzalez piece. It's a maxi dress, maxi skirt, and mini dress all in one - the perfect treat to bring on vacation this summer. Talk about easy packing! Just don't forget your breezy tank (have you tried the T by Alexander Wang yet?) and a chunky cuff, like this Low Luv beauty. xo, Catherine
