From as far as we can tell, the world survived another Coachella weekend. We’re not going to bore you with a rundown of the acts, but instead give your eyes some candy just in case the heat is making your blood sugar drop. Check out this photo series from WWD to get up close and personal with both victims and mavens.

ROCKING ON WATER

We’re lucky to be alive. The riot police were called to our offices this morning to contain the swarms of customers who were shivving each other over the new eco-friendly Wolfmother boardshort from Billabong. No that we blame them, because as far as high-performance surf trunks go these are in a class of their own. Okay so maybe the machetes and broken beer bottles were overkill, but the angry mass made a good point: Global warming is no laughing matter. And when the surf and music industries combine it’s a beautiful, beautiful thing. (And it’s even more of a beautiful thing that the inseam is a manly 21″ and not 18″ like some of those wussy retro trunks…but we digress.) Made entirely from recycled polyester suede and featuring an all-over Wolfmother print with a large logo and art screen at the right side, it’s already got our unicorn revved and ready to fly.

Alright already, we get it. You’re a unique spirit with a sensitive soul. You treasure your individuality. You crave new ways of self expression. You have a notebook full of love poems written in your own blood. And OMG you get a THO over anything that’s DIY. Which is why we know you’ll love this clip from Kat Von D, explaining how to cut-up your t-shirts to show off your rockin’ bod.
