As I mentioned in a previous post, I was home for Austin City Limits last weekend. I had a fantastic time romping about with old friends, eating Chi'Lantro tacos (THE BEST), checking out new bands and reminiscing with old favorites (cough cough Okkervil River). But this year I also went armed with a camera in the effort of trying to get some good style shots of the blithe and sunburnt festival-goers (try being the operative word here).
I'm ashamed to admit that it was an incredibly difficult endeavor. I figured running off between sets to snap a few pics would be a slice of cake but instead I missed half of Lissie trying to hunt people down. Yo Austin: Step. Up. Your. Game. People go to Coachella PURELY to be photographed for style blogs and probably don't even realize it's a music festival. Sure, ACL is about the music, but lets have some pride in our style, shall we? What happened to Keeping Austin Weird?
Below are the few shining stars I came across, but next year, let's do better hm?
(P.S. Anyone beg to differ with me on this? Maybe all the Glamazons were trolling about while I was at Grimes. Who was killer btw.)
I cheated on this one because she's my friend Lauren but she's also super stylish so bonus points. Hi Lauren.
She also took my picture for her atx style blog. (Ha! Please ignore awkward stance.)
She was so sweet. Great texture/print mixing.
This girl was on every ACL style blog post. Way to be.
Crop tops for daysssss.
That low-V. Daring.
mmmm GoodPop.
Oh and here's a little collage of some atmosphere pics from the weekend taken by both myself and my dear friend Skinney after he gently commandeered my camera. Look out for him, he's a NatGeoPho in the making (I just made that term up, I think).
I can't believe you included someone with the giant flowers. You gave in to the dark side.
ReplyDeleteI knowwwww but if I was going to give an honest overview it had to include some. Much to my dismay. Ugh.
