Coachella Baby!

Hey beautiful people,

I have invited my friend Tanya Elizabeth to be guest blogger here today. She went to the music festival Coachella last weekend and has promised me to share her experience right here. Check it out!!!

Hello readers,

my name is Tanya Elizabeth and Im a close friend of Kristina Korsholm. Currently residing in sunny California. On a daily basis I’m a Student at, ‘The Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising’, in the evening you can call me a night owl, on the prowl for the most exciting parties to be in Los Angeles. I love this city. Consider it my play ground.

This past weekend all of Los Angeles flocked over to Palm springs about 2 hours away in to the Desert. This was my first time in Palm Springs and my first time at, ‘Coachella Festival’.

The parties were amazing, especially the one held at Merv Griffin Estate, ‘Oasis’. The property is a mansion on a piece of land, surrounded by the natural beauty southern California has to offer. In the foreground, a lake reflects the snow filled peaks of the mountains, and around the estate the palm trees line up against the white fence. Everyone who was anyone was there. From Olympian Shaun White, to Paris Hilton, Alexander Wang,Will. I am. The Killers, Whitney Port the Wayans Brothers and of course Lindsay Lohan. She is everywhere.

We made it into the festival just in time to catch the rock band ‘Pavement’. Ran over to shed a few tears to, ‘Thom Yorke’ found our way over to rave to Electronic sensation, ‘Plastikman’ and finally chill out to some, ‘Gorillaz’. Majority of the attire was bikinis, bathing suits with Kaftans, loose shirts and shorts cowboy boots or combat boots. This years, ‘Coachella Festival’ was the first time the festival sold out. With a huge array of the worlds finest DJ’s(Such as David Guetta, Tiesto, Kaskade, Deadmau5, Benni Bennssi ( to name a few), to Rap sensation Jay-z, to rock genius Thom Yorke: there was a piece of music for everyone. The festival attracted all sorts of audiences, which, naturally, reflected interesting wardrobes.

A whirlwind of a trip, from laying by the pool drinking champagne, to being abandoned in the desert at a gas station, I’m happy to say I had the ultimate, ‘Coachella’ experience, being picked up in a all original 70’s vintage van and making it home in one piece.
