Must-Have Sandals
It's sandals' season...yay! As much as we have loved sporting knee-high boots and UGGS this winter season, the weather here on the West Coast is finally saying, "It's time to shop for some spring/summer gear!" Hey, we don't mind {thank you global warming}. Comfortable and cute are the looks we are going for when it comes to footwear and the above sandals are our favorites from Nordstrom's wide selection! The all lace up sandals are really trending for this spring/summer. Think swanky gladiator look when trying to pull these glam sandals off. We are really love the Michael Kors classy gold plated 'thong sandal'. It's just plain cute and classic (we would expect nothing less from Michael Kors!). Another sandal being sold at Nordies that we like is from the Vince collection called the 'Rita' Leather Ankle Strap Sandal. It's pretty versatile as you can dress it down by pairing it with a simple top and jeans during the day and then you can dress it up with a curvaceous dress paired with a simple clutch to match.
What are some of your favorite sandals that are out right now? Share with us in the comments below!

How To Stay Safe During Spring Break
We miss having spring breaks because we know how much fun they are! There is nothing like going on a trip with your girl friends and guy friends to a fun city to party the days away. However, spring break can be a bit dangerous if you're not taking the proper precautions so we wanted to share with you some ways to stay safe during spring break
- Share your travel itinerary with someone--When you're traveling, you want to be sure that someone you trust knows your itinerary just in case you may get lost or delayed.
- Lock your hotel when you leave--We have all done it before; we walk out of our hotel room never looking back to see if it actually closed. Always double check to see that the door closes behind you. You wouldn't want anything stolen out of your room.
- Wear sunscreen!
- Have a buddy system in place--Now, we are not saying to stalk your friends every move, but have a friend that you can at least be eye contact distance away from each other. There are a lot of people who like to prey on vulnerable woman and it would not be great to find out that your friend has gone missing and is no where to be found. Simply check in with each other whether it's eye contact or a text saying, "I'm okay!"
- Don't go home with strangers--Self explanatory.
- Never accept a drink that you don't know where it came from- Sadly, there are people out there who choose to rufy drinks in order to place their victim in a vulnerable situation to take advantage of them. Don't put your drink down and leave it unattended. If you do, throw that drink away!
- Most importantly, know your limit--Ultimately, YOU are responsible for yourself. Don't put yourself or your friends in compromising situations because you decided to ignore your limits.
Have fun and be safe this spring break!

A Girl's Guide To Coachella
Coachella tickets go on sale today and we are so excited because Coachella is pretty much life-changing! If you're wondering if you should go, our answer is YES YES YES! Coachella is so popular that they've been having it go down over two weekends. Both weekends offer an awesome line up. This year we are looking forward to seeing The Weekend, Drake, Axwell, AC/DC and much more. It is going to be monumental. But, first things first, you've got to buy a ticket! Go to Coachella.com and sign up. Signing up will allow you to track your profile and the tickets you've bought. Here are some other helpful tips:
- You will want to buy a ticket AND a shuttle pass.
- For lodging, get a house! It is the most affordable and convenient.
- Stay close to the fairgrounds--it's just more convenient.
- Dress minimally, but tasteful. If you buy something from Urban Outfitters or Free People it will be super cute, but just keep in mind that most people will be shopping there.
- Arrive at the fairgrounds at sun down--that is when most of the amazing artists go on and it's less hot.
- Sandstorms are common so wear a bandana to protect your hair.
- Carry cash.
- Rent a walkie talkie; there is no cell phone reception.
- Wear comfortable flats--like not even strappy flats because those eventually hurt.
- The cab line is super far from the fairgrounds so if you decide to take it, be prepared to walk far.
- Stay hydrated as you're basically in the desert and it's hot!
- Wear sunblock to protect yourself from the sun.
- Don't wait until the last minute to buy tickets!
Good luck and hopefully we will see you there!!
