Coachella Part II


We gave you a day to cool off, a day to download all of the music you heard and a day to go shopping for all the hot looks you saw out west... that's right - The Coachella music festival kicked off this past weekend at The Empire Polo Club in Indio, California, to less than favorable conditions. With temperatures around 52 degrees and wind around 37 miles per hour, people began to coin the phrase 'Blowchella' this year.


But lets be honest, most of these die hard fans, celebs, and fashionistas did not come to Coachella for a tan, they came for a show and the fashion and that is exactly what they got.
With epic performances from Phoenix including a special appearance featuring R. Kelly belting out 'Bump n' Grind', few were disappointed this year.

Highlights included Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Janelle Monae, The Savages, 2 Chainz, Blur, Major Lazer, and, of course, The Red Hot Chili Peppers. Rumors were circulating all year about Daft Punk making an appearance after a 7 year hiatus from the festival. They found a way to do so, in video form, but fans went crazy anyway.

Lead Singer Jehnny Beth of The Savages

Rolling Stone discovered a British flair in the festival this year and clung to Johnny Marr's beautiful renditions of The Smiths. The Stone Roses were also a band to watch this year with a vast and loyal U.K. following.

Then there's the wardrobe. The second (and possibly first) reason you decided to roll into Cali this weekend.
Think Dolce & Gabbana, crop-tops, denim cut-offs, floppy hats, and crazy shades. Oh and some of our favorite celebs like Alexa Chung, Kate Bosworth, Katy Perry, Paris Hilton and Kristen Stewart rocking their own incredible styles.

If this made you bummed you missed the show, have no fear Drobers, you can access videos at http://www.youtube.com/user/coachella . No you may not get the full experience of glow sticks, questionable hygiene, blasting music, and mesmorizing lights, but there's always next year!

A Look Back at Margaret Thatcher: A Bold, Political, Style Icon


This Iron Lady may be gone but she will certainly not be forgotten.  The former Prime Minister of England will be remembered for her no-nonsense, yet personable and protective political approach, which was reflected in her crisp, classic style.  Tailored suits, tastefully chic hemlines and affable pearls, oh my!   

The global style icon once said of fashion, "It was time the government ought to show their tremendous appreciation for everything the fashion industry does." A beautiful example of how style and politics can work together to leave a mark on the world.  
Lady Thatcher you will be missed!
