So Coachella happened last weekend and I’m sure it was pretty cool but there’s a few fashion items that need to be cleared up. I mean honestly, some of the outfits I saw were so absurd that I actually thought I was tripping on acid…until I realized I was sitting on the couch with my Mom watching Gilmore Girls.
There were some good ones, but for the most part everyone looked like they went into their closet and just pulled out the most ridiculous clothing items of the 90’s they could find and put them all on. I get it, it’s about being a free spirit and letting the music takeover – you know what’s not free? THAT $600 FREE PEOPLE OUTFIT YOU BOUGHT SO YOU COULD SIT ON THE GROUND AND RUIN WITH GRASS STAINS. I’m just saying, I’m having difficulty jumping on the Coachella Hippie bandwagon when you just paid more to camp out than most people pay in rent. Also in case you didn’t know, the seasons aren’t some polygamist marriage – you have to choose. Really, I don’t care what you choose but decide if it’s going to be fall or spring and then dress like it. If you’re wearing combat boots, a felt hat and a bikini top you don’t look hipster – you look like you just rolled out of the Goodwill clearance bin and your head is probably dripping in sweat.
One fashion choice I can get on board with – Fanny Packs. They hold everything you’d ever need, you can use your hands for holding drinks and food instead of a purse and it covers the fupa so really what more could you want?
