Perhaps even worse than saying goodbye to Coachella for another year was making the trek back from hot-as-hell Indio to New York weather…on a Monday. But while we've found ourselves in a bit of a depressed stupor today (no pools, no promises of Kanye West), a ray of light shone down on our day as the photos from our pool party with Phillip Lim landed in our inbox.
It already seems so long ago, but just this Saturday we celebrated the New York fashion scene's weekend on the West Coast with Phillip Lim at a pretty epic house in the desert overlooking all of Palm Springs. There were spiked Kanon snow cones for the drinking– er, crunching– amazing Mexican food for the eating and some summer-inspired tunes for the listening (yes, that would include the Beach Boys) played by DJs Binki Shapiro, Alexa Chung and Myles Hendrik.
Also in attendance sipping Kanon and sun bathing alongside us? A few of our favorite FOKs Rumi Neely, Bronques and Harley Viera Newton, fellow Swede Elin Kling, street style extraordinaire Garance Doré and the man of the hour, of course– Phillip Lim (who somehow elusively dodged our lens). You'd never know it was 100 degrees plus with the amount of good vibes everyone was soaking up. Luckily, Laura Taylor, our go-to girl for Coachella snaps was on deck with a Polaroid camera in hand.
