This week’s Get the Look bloggers are Rachel and Nate from Dolly Mae Vintage.
It’s been less than a week since we (Rachel and Nate of Dolly Mae Vintage) begrudgingly made our way back to New York City from a quick Southern California getaway, and we can’t seem to get over our two-day stop in Palm Springs. While the city’s mid-century Hollywood residents are now only immortalized in the Palm Springs Walk of Fame, the city continues to ooze the glamour, fun, and excitement of this by-gone era. The mid-century architecture is ever present, and it’s hard not to feel inspired by the look and feel of this old desert hideaway. Whether you’re headed deep into the Southern California desert, or looking for a tropical-inspired getaway in your own backyard, we’ve compiled the perfect mid-century Palm Springs looks for you, exclusively from Vesties Team members!
Wild prints (tribal, tiki, mid-century novelty), vibrant hues (pink, aqua, yellow, orange), statement accessories (the bigger the sunglasses the better), and the perfect swimsuit will complete your Palm Springs look in no time. It won’t be hard to keep up with the look of the town that boasts Elvis’ honeymoon hideaway, a 26-foot statue of Marilyn Monroe, and echoes of Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, and Dinah Shore through its canyons.
Palm Springs fashion is bold, classic, funky, and modern all at once, embodying the glitz of its former residents, mirroring the unparalleled mid-century modern architectural landscape, and capturing the essence of California cool. We left Palm Springs drooling over its beauty and history, completely sartorially inspired by the world around us. We hope this treasury inspires your wardrobes, and adds a pop of color to your day!
Great Post. Sounds like you have a time machine. I wish I could pull off bold, classic, funky, and modern all at once. It never happens. Look forward to your next trip.
Love it! Thanks!!
