Elle Woods began her trek to the cities most prestigious music festival of all, Coachella. Coachella Music Festival; where every daddy’s little princess in flower crowns and crop tops with half-stitching on the hem, journey across the desert in their BMW’s to thrive. This is where good girls go to die during Beyonce’s surprise set with Destiny’s Child. It’s where camping is a “cultural experience,” but only because the Ritz was overbooked months ago when the lineup was announced. Of course, every seasoned music fest gal knows the drill. Allow me to share with you a snippet of what you’ll need for a flawless Chella experience:
Camera- Other than the outfits, this is the most important material of all. How else will all your peasant friends who couldn’t afford a ticket see you live your best life without the footage?
Which leads me to the outfits. If you're lucky enough, each day's fit is carefully selected by a stylist or PR house. You'll have to convince them that you're a"social influencer" but here's the catch: In order to borrow their pulled garments from the showroom, you have to promise to tag the brand so that all your 12k purchased followers will see (ummmm, obviously?) We’ve seen the assistants of celebrities, like Kylie Jenner, bag each outfit with stapled photo attached of how it will be worn. You know, just in case you’re so dumb that you forgot where your mini skirt goes on your body. Now that we have our visuals locked down, it’s time for the psychedelics.
Drugs- Maybe you fancy the uppers, may it be Adderall or cocaine, or prefer psychedelics such as mushrooms or LSD. Or perhaps you’re more of a weed gal at a festival, it's your choice. Either way, you better plan to place an order to your dealer within days, possibly weeks, in advance depending on your level of OCD. Nobody shows up empty-handed. If we’re being honest here, which we are...drugs are the real MVP. Let me explain, you won't have to drink alcohol, which means you'll probably forget to eat and look astonishing frolicking around in your crop top.
Last, but definitely not least, your friend group. You can choose where this fits into your priorities. However, it's important to select a guy/girl group that will truly elevate the weekend by providing all the vibes. I promise that memories are just as good as the money shot you got in front of the Ferris wheel. The good news is that if you’re decent at choosing friends, they will check both boxes: a good time and an avid content capturer.
So, we have covered all the bases from photo opps, wardrobe, drugs and friends; a perfect concoction for a magical weekend in the desert. Enjoy, hunnies. XOXO
