She Goes to Palm Springs on Sundays


I'm not sure if you are aware but I have a slight obsession with the Ace Hotel in Palm Springs. Every day I come up with a new reason why it is so awesome (Captain is not amused). If you are having a bachelorette or birthday party or just want to be in the coolest place on earth for a couple days please head to the Ace immediately. No, I am not a paid rep for the hotel. I am just freakin' obsessed.


Let's start with the rooms: There is a collection of booze on the bathroom shelf. The walls are covered in canvas material. The furniture is vintage. You can, and are encouraged to, move the pictures around on the walls as you see fit.


Now the pool: Maybe it was because I haven't been in a pool in lord knows how long but it was divine. Christian, the rad bartender, sent me off with my mojitos {20% off with the Easy Rider package btw} with a wink and a smile. The cute boys in gold hot pants shakin' their booties were fine entertainment for the afternoon (don't worry, babe, they were more interested in each other than in me). Of course, the ambiance was helped by Michael of The Flashdance!

{I apologize for the lack of pool pics. I was distracted by the mojitos and the boys in hot pants}

Oh, and don't forget the food at King's Highway, the revamped Denny's, with a menu of fresh, homemade food. Top it off with cocktails at the Amigo Room and then some downtime at your building's fireplace. Oh, did I mention that each building has a community fireplace? How about a massage in a yurt???

Yeah, this is like the raddest summer camp ever for adults!

Oh. my. goodness. I am so excited. I didn't think I would be able to but the stars magically aligned and now I will be attending The Sunday Wedding at the Ace Hotel!!!! I'll be driving up Sunday afternoon and back in time for work Monday morning (yes, I do realize that I'm nuts). Now I just have to pack a snazzy outfit! Is anyone else going?

ACE HOTEL: Palm Springs

I am obsessed with the Ace Hotels especially the Palm Springs location. This is exactly what I want my house to look like. It brings to mind 70s California, Henry Diltz and The Doors. I love that the rooms have record players. Not sure why I would need to stay in a hotel to listen to records when I can do that at home but I have a feeling my Gram Parsons albums would sound so much better in this environment. Check out Michael Antonia's photo shoot there with his wife and baby (aka the most gorgeous family in the world).
