OMG so excited to share that we are going to COACHELLA 2020! Always wanted to go as compared to the weather in England a festival abroad is always a good idea! The head liners are Travis Schott and Frank Ocean - wooooo!

Not sure where to start though, flights to Cali or accommodation have not even been booked, i am not going to lie the prices are high but i am focusing on the experience for now and to get some dope images for you guys to see when i am back - as Drake said “Here for a good time not a long time”! Need to get thinking on outfits as as you know its proper bohemian fashion vibes -Sustainable Coachella Vibes, lets make it happen!

Thinking we should do a road trip but start at Coachella and work our way to San Fran, all i booked in a mad panic whilst on the Coachella 2020 website was the actual ticket and then as a contingency plan a parking space where we can camp out but then it hit me how can we be fashion in a car…. I mean it can be possible but what about the space, mirror, electricity?? AaaaaRGH so many things to think about! I will keep researching and let you know the outcome but apparently you can find some standard hotels at Palm Springs - booking.com at the ready babes? Obvs the parking space camping is the cheapest options and you will make friends as everyone drinks together at their camps, but lets see.

Quillattire is working on some dope pieces that we will be wearing at Coachella, so excited to wear the pieces! It is going to be so hot, so lets think less fabric but some uber cool customised pieces - Upcycling at the ready! Apparently there are sand storms too so sun glasses are a must, but look at the below taken from Vicky Flip Flop Travels, it says to take face masks!

How do you cope with the heat at Coachella?

Coachella is challenging. By the time I left I must’ve ingested so much sand it was heavy on my chest and I could barely walk round New York afterwards for breathing. One of my friends I went with had to have a week off work once he got home. Trust me, you need to wear your face scarf / protector thing to look after your respiratory system – the winds were just crazy.

I did a little research into how you purchase drinks, as it can get manic and does not like a beverage or two ,comonnnnnn you’re at a festival in Cali!!! So the queues are apparently hectic, and if you get spotted totes drunk then you get thrown out - so prepare to keep it classy at all times… There are lockers outside the venue that you could stash with some beverages and have a little sesh and social then pop back in to the festival, below a bit from Lucie Loves blog.

Q. Do people drink alcohol at Coachella Festival?

If you want to have an alcoholic drink at Coachella you must queue up for a wristband first, to prove that you’ve shown ID to say that you’re over 21. Once you’ve got this wristband, you then make your way to one of the penned off areas – away from the stages, and buy your over-priced beverage. You’re only allowed to leave the penned area once you’ve finished your alcohol drink – and not before! So, there’s usually a bit of a mad swarm between sets, to get to the bar.

I have started doing some research for people going from the UK by reading some blogs about Coachella 2020, some of them listed below.
