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.

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!

Louis Vuitton Fall 2013 - Belles of the Boudoir


The Louis Vuitton runway transformed into a dimly lit, old world hotel hallway for Marc Jacob's debut of his Fall 2013 Collection during Paris Fashion Week at the Louvre... 
I know, we wish we were there too. 
With disheveled hair and brooding expressions the models channeled Italian actress Anna Magnani.


 Each model appeared behind one of 50 doors to give viewers an intimate and somewhat voyeuristic experience of the mysterious and provocative woman behind the hotel room door. 


Louis Vuitton runway shows have long been about the experience, transporting the viewer to another time and place, and this season Jacobs did not disappoint. For this collection, he wanted to encapsulate the femme fatale and what she would wear, or not wear, whilst sneaking into different hotel chambers in the middle of the night. 


The results were half dressed, effortlessly glamourous and sexy looks that could be converted from nightgown, to day, to evening wear.










The accessories were label free, a trend seen with more and more luxury labels as they try to test the strength of their brands sans logos (i.e. Saint Laurent's departure from Yves).


Kate Moss made an epic appearance on the runway, accompanied with applause from the crowd.
True to bed time form, Marc Jacobs wore pajamas from his men's fall 2013 collection. Oh and by the way, Marc will be celebrating his 50th birthday next week and I think we can all agree he has never looked better!
Marc Jacobs thoroughly impressed us this season, creating a collection that not only addresses the effortlessly chic woman, but also speaks to the darker, more mysterious side, which we Drobers know is in all of us.
