Music Festival Style from Coachella to Firefly for Under $50

You're headed to a music festival this spring or summer, so what should you pack? What we didn't see coming is that '90s style is trending in a big way. That means overalls are back. Take a moment to visualize that fashion flashback. So…maybe we should have salvaged the Calvin Klein denim overalls we practically lived in from like '96 to '98. On second thought, maybe not.

Polka Dot Shortalls  from Forever 21, ($28).

Thankfully, fast fashion retailers like Forever 21 have concocted cuter versions of the unflattering overalls revival.

Rock Refinery 'Welcome to the Jungle' muscle tee, ($38).

"You're gonna hear me roar!" Get festival-ready with rockin' apparel and accessories for under $50 from Rock Refinery.

Kardashian Kollection Tortoiseshell Cat Eye Sunglasses,  ($19).

Shield your eyes while you fist-pump to your fave artists in a pair of cool Kardashian Kollection cat-eye sunglasses, nicely priced under $20 at Sears.

'Shadowlands' sun hat ($34) & 'Tell Tell' pants ($38) from RVCA.

Go hippie-chic in a 100 percent paper straw, floppy Shadowlands hat and flared cotton/spandex Tell Tell pants, both from RVCA

Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater Comes to Brooklyn, June 5-8

Attending a performance of the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater is always a highlight of my arts and culture calendar. An engagement with this awe-inspiring and genre-bending dance company is even better when they perform close to home at the Brooklyn Academy of Music.                                                                                                                                         Photo: Danica Paulos Ailey’s long-standing relationship with BAM began in 1969 when the trailblazing choreographer established The Ailey School in Brooklyn and presented his company’s...

Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater Graces Brooklyn Academy of Music, June 4-9, 2024

Dance is expression. Dance is spiritual. Dance is activism. Dance is life. I feel most alive when I am listening to music and dancing.  As a spectator and fan, some of my fondest moments of watching dance performances have been witnessing the dignity and grace of the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater. Every time I see the Ailey company, I am inspired, moved, and grounded in the beauty and complexity of the African American experience.  Photo by Paul Kolnik For me, the highlight is always "Revelations," Mr. Ailey's three-part ode to his upbringing in the Black Baptist church. The three sections -- "Pilgrim of Sorrow"; "Take Me to the Water"; and "Move, Members, Move" -- tell the story of African American faith and persistence from slavery to freedom. Over the weekend,  I had the pleasure of taking an outdoor Community Workshop in downtown Brooklyn, where we learned some of the choreography for "Revelations." I beamed from ear to ear...
