Every year, the music and fashion worlds come together to bring the most hyped event of the year. Coachella is an arts and music festival held over the course of two weekends. While the festival is about the music, it's really about the fashion. We see many great performances, but the fashion is what people talk about all year long.
With that, I'm going to share with you my favourite performances and looks from weekend 1 this year, enjoy!
THE MUSIC
- Marina and the Diamonds: overall always an incredible performer, it's always nice to see a favourite artist performing new work, which is what we got with the set of tracks from Froot.
- Florence + The Machine: I have been so obsessed with F+TM again lately, so I was super excited for a Coachella performance. Florence was incredible, she is so captivating. The performance was never boring, she really kept the crowd going.
- The Weeknd: I actually used to have an obsession with Abel. I prefer his older stuff, I guess that's why the obsession ended. But that being said he performed a lot of his older stuff which made me a happy girl.
- Tame Impala: a boy I had a crush on in high school actually introduced me to them, which I'm glad for. This was my first time watching a live performance from them, I've never thought to look any up from them. But wow, they are incredible performers! Their Coachella set just really brought the band to life and represented them so well, I was so pleased.
- Drake: Of course I had to include Drake.. While I found some of it a bit off, most of it was great. And then there was that Madonna kiss.. At least now we know how she stays so young.
- Honourable Mentions: Angus & Julia Stone, FKA Twigs, Gesaffelstein, Hozier, Kygo, Mac Demarco, SBTRKT, Tyler the Creator, Vic Mensa
THE FASHION
Hope you enjoyed, looking forward to seeing what weekend 2 has in store!
