Another year of free-spirited prowess seems to fly by in a flash, leaving a memorable trail of clothing to motivate much of the festival frenzy to come. It’s no wonder that, according to some, this is Coachella’s most versatile and delightful fashion year yet, with Queen B setting the stage for all fashionistas who love the festival’s boho-chic vibe.
From the trendiest outfit looks, to memorable celebrity looks, let’s have a look at this year’s Coachella picks, and how you can incorporate them into your style!
Front and center edges
Even when you choose pastel colours and durable denim as your material of choice for the festival, there’s all the time texture to play with. This year’s Coachella proved that even the simplest of outfits can be embellished beyond recognition with a little added substance to otherwise mundane outfits.
This western-inspired penchant is seen everywhere, paired with a trendy cowboy hat and pure brown leather tone, and obviously, no look would be complete without a pair of genuine cowboy boots. Some favorites include Calvin Klein, too Nocona embroidered boots in a delicious brown color. Don’t be stingy with your bangs when you wear some great footwear!
Polka, stripes, and plaid
Not that florals should be abandoned, as any summer music party is a perfect excuse to wear all things floral. This year, although, there’s so much more pattern to look forward to, and the trend will only continue to grow with the street-friendly version of this look.
Some of the funky best include black and white polka dots, to give your look a really retro look, while rainbow stripes as seen with Alessandra Ambrosio and his colourful cowboy extravaganza. Anything from shorts, full rainbow tops and bottoms, to barely soft rainbows on a long dress is more than welcome. Plus, let’s not forget the love of lumberjack checkers, particularly keen on our boyish shirts for added layers of evening warmth.
Beauty needs
There is no way to look like Coachella for your upcoming event if you do not take excellent care of your skin. Spending all of your time in the sun means you should follow in the footsteps of the Coachella diva and pay attention to your sun protection, so choose a reliable sunscreen to be your partner in crime.
Then again, do not neglect your pretty hands either, and make room in your fashionable purse (which we’ll get to in a moment) to L’Occitane moisturizing hand cream to nourish your skin on the go. Luckily for all boho fans, the nude look is still on the rise, so you do not need to overload your skin with too much makeup, even though a touch of lip gloss is all the time an excellent option!
Mastering accessories
Layered bracelets in a number of colours, crisp white nail polish to match lots of oversized white shirts, chokers paired with delicate pendants all made their presence felt at this year’s Coachella.
However, other unique things include the reinvented waist bag which makes the entire experience simpler and resembling the 80s and 90s. After all, if Kendall Jenner chose one, then it’s a utterly approved item to choose according to your own style! Of course, let’s not forget the nuances that stand out as the festival’s most powerful add-ons: from classic aviators, to tortoiseshell trim, these accessories easily become the perfect statement piece to complete a Coachella look.
Keep going-y
Kendall is not the only one showing off bandage bras, but many more are putting a twist on classic top options, and adding that extra edge with floral embroidery, texture via knit, or simply plain old fringe! In fact, many wardrobe choices are perfectly coordinated to reflect today’s love of street-inspired style.
What could be your low-maintenance staples? Choose torn, distressed denim shortsa plain white shirt or t-shirt, a pair of rugged boots to deal with the pressure of the crowd, and you will have only a few accessories from the perfect Coachella look!
