Thursday dinner at Mr. Lyons

Palm Springs is the high desert, so even if it's super hot during the day (which it was not while we were there), it gets chillly at night. Our first day was on the cool side, so I was glad I packed this alpaca cardigan from Quince—it's somehow lightweight and super warm at the same time (and majorly soft too). This is a very mellow color scheme for Palm Springs—as you'll see, my outfits got more colorful as the trip went on—but I've found myself gravitating toward neutrals during the week and brighter, happier colors on the weekend.

Friday architectural bus tour

If you've never been to Palm Springs, I highly recommend taking a tour—there are a bunch of buildings on the national register of historic places, as well as celebrity homes and just straight-up cool architecture. It's also a great way to orient yourself and get the lay of the land. This outfit was kind of my way of easing into the weekend—the blazer (which I just featured) is all business, but the La DoubleJ skirt, which you last saw in NYC, is a complete party. 

OUTFIT DETAILS: Zara double-breasted blazer | Athleta tee (current version) | La DoubleJ skirt | Isabel Marant Lecce belt | Balenciaga first bag (current version) | Birkenstock Arizona EVA sandals

Saturday house tour

On Friday's tour I determined that Indian Canyons was one of my favorite neighborhoods, and luckily we had booked a house tour there the next day. (You can rent the house, btw, on VRBO.)  My Rhode Resort dress (last seen in Napa) got a bunch of compliments and the bright pink color just made me so happy. One thing to note: this dress is not the most packable if you plan to travel with it, and it wrinkles like a mother. But it's cute (and comfy) AF. 

OUTFIT DETAILS: Rhode Resort Ella dress | Sojos sunglasses | Balenciaga first bag (current version) | Hermès Oasis sandals 

Sunday pool day

There are many photogenic hotels in Palm Springs, but I'd say ours was one of the most 'grammable. We stayed at the Saguaro, which we were warned was a party hotel, but we found it to be pretty mellow, especially in the morning. I thought its rainbow color scheme went very well with my new Change of Scenery swimsuit and matching skirt. I absolutely love this brand—their suits are incredibly flattering, the fabrics are super high-quality, and the prints are just so good. Plus, you can use code CHERYL10 for 10% off ;)
