palm springs photo diary

8.27.2012

A few pictures from Palm Springs a weekend ago with Liz. I seriously suck at documenting things, but I got a fancy new camera that inspired me to take more pictures. It was a rather colorful, relaxing weekend at the Saguaro hotel.

Some highlights and outfit details: saturated ourselves in the desert heat only during pool parties, walked to the Ace Hotel for another undocumented party, wore lots of bright colors (Cameo top, vintage cheer skirt, Zara flats), spent lots of time on the balcony (One Teaspoon bathing suit, For Love and Lemons kimono), picked up vintage goodies from the best vintage store in Palm Desert (The Fine Art of Design - must visit), desperately need the bright floral lobby of the Saguaro on a dress, lastly said our goodbyes at the Parker hotel curing a hangover with some eggs benedict (Joie top, WiNK shorts).

That probably just barely made sense, so, sorry in advance.
