It’s been more than a month since I came back from Palm Springs but I’ve still got some images to share. Like this gorgeous black and white dress I picked up on the trip and then photographed myself wearing at my hotel with the Ada earrings.

On the last morning of my most recent trip to Palm Springs, I ended up taking a few pictures of myself in the pool of my hotel. This was partly to recreate some of my favorite pictures from my trip to Nevis, but partly because it was the perfect way to document my experience of the trip.

I spent the first week of February in Palm Springs. It was my first time on a plane since the start of the pandemic, which seems pretty appropriate because Palm Springs was actually the last trip I took before the pandemic started. (I was there about a week before everything in the US shut down.) A lot has changed since then – most notably my hair is MUCH longer – so I couldn’t resist recreating these images with the same kaftan and necklace, especially since I was staying at the same hotel.

I’m finally sharing the last batch of images from my trip to Palm Springs back in March! (Better late than never, right?!?)
This necklace has since sold, but you can check out other colorful necklaces from the Modular Collection in my online store!

I’m still trying to catch up on sharing pics of my newest necklace collection from my trip to Palm Springs, um, eight months ago. (What can I say, it’s been a long year!)
This was an outfit I wore to Alt Summit (the conference I was attending) while on the trip, and I love how it all came together, with another dress from my favorite India brand, Nicobar, a jacket from Madewell that I’ve had for years, and this Modular statement necklace, which I just love.

Way back in March, right before the world shut down, I spent a very lovely week in Palm Springs. And while I blogged some of my favorite scenes from the trip, I got distracted and never shared the images I took of some of my jewelry while I was there! So I’m going to take a few days and share them now. (Better late than never, right?!?)

It’s no secret that I’m super into pink and green right now. (And by right now, I mean since I started buying all the plants over a year ago.) So when I was walking around Palm Springs taking pictures of walls and hedgerows, this pink and green combo totally won out as my favorite.
And then of course I couldn’t resist looking for more combos of pink and green as I explored the city!

One of the things that struck me most about my trip to Palm Springs was the sheer amount of hedgerows and privacy walls throughout the city. I’m sure there’s something deep I could say about privacy versus community, but the truth is, as a form of visual color blocking, I found them super inspiring.
And while I couldn’t see what was on the other side (for the most part), I think they still made for some pretty interesting photos. (So much so that I’ve got another post coming up with a different color blocked color palette, because in case you couldn’t tell, I’m super into color right now!)

I spent last week in Palm Springs, and while I was there for Alt Summit, I will admit I spent a decent amount of time playing hooky from the conference. The truth was, there was just so much visual inspiration throughout Palm Springs that I was quite happy just to walk around, take pics, and take it all in.
I shared many of my favorite pics in my Instagram stories, but I also wanted to share them here as well. Since I started my new line of colorful jewelry, I’ve been thinking of myself as someone who collects color palettes, and that theme definitely came through in my photo taking in Palm Springs.
