One of my favorite parts of the trip was driving around and looking at the houses and neighborhoods. We also stopped off at some amazing hotels to see their decor and bars, The Parker was my favorite of these. With interiors designed by Jonathan Adler, we had fun taking some photos in the impressive super 70's loungy lobby, then wondering around the maze of the seemly endless tropical grounds.
Another highlight was the vintage shopping which we didn't get the chance to dive very deep into, but another great reason to return. My favorite we found was Mr. Cox Vintage, with a super classy selection of well cared for glamorous pieces. Plus I got the chance to wear a few of my favorite warm weather dresses, including this hot little full length tropical number below.
And how could I not mention our perfect accommodations at the Ace Hotel. The rooms were super comfortable and the food at King's Highway Diner (a restored Denny's) was excellent, served poolside and open late night. I adore everything about the Ace! I was also thrilled to find out a friend from Estie School is new the Lead Esthetician there, so if you go make sure to get a facial at The Feel Good Spa!
Chances are I will be back in Palm Springs very soon!

What a lovely post! Reading this brought back great memories from my own recent trip to Palm Springs. There’s something so special about the mix of desert calm, vintage charm, and mid-century design everywhere you look. The Parker is definitely a must-see — those Jonathan Adler touches make it feel like stepping into another era. I totally relate to your fascination with driving around the neighborhoods too; the architecture there is just stunning. On my last visit, I stayed at a cozy Palm Springs vacation house with a few friends, and it made the whole experience feel extra relaxed and homey. We spent mornings lounging by the pool before heading out to explore shops and cafés. I didn’t get to dive into the vintage scene as much either, but you’ve convinced me to go back soon and do it properly. Sounds like your getaway was the perfect mix of fun and style!
