Indio is in the desert and you walk through grit and dust &#8212; especially in the parking lots &#8212; which doesn&#8217;t feel very nice when it gets in between your toes. I do see plenty of people wearing sandals, but I don&#8217;t know how they do it. I wouldn&#8217;t be able to take the discomfort! Last year, I wore a low-top sneaker one day and that was miserable enough. Speaking of dust, bring a bandana to cover your nose and mouth.<\/p>\n<p>Come back to the blog <del datetime=\"2017-04-25T03:32:52+00:00\">tomorrow<\/del> soon for my post on the performers I saw!  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Coachella kicked off the music-festival season last weekend, which means its time for dozens &#8212; or possibly hundreds &#8212; of music-festival-fashion stories.
