Has #Coachella Lost Its Cache?

Ummmm to say the least.  The Desert Fashion Show Music Fest is like sooooo 3 years ago.  All focus is on desperate girls trying to one up each other by playing their own game of "Who Wore It Better" Less about the songs, more about the celeb-spotting, #Coachella has turned into 1 big circus of bad fashion on posing hipsters.  Don't believe me?  Click here to see what our male counterparts have to say http://wittyandpretty.com/2015/04/17/what-guys-really-think-of-girls-coachella-outfits/
