Fashionistas,
It’s that time of year again. Everyone’s favorite music festival kicked off this past weekend…Coachella! Filled with great food and great artists galore, Coachella is the fashion girl’s ultimate playground, so get ready for an influx of printed rompers, floppy hats, and fringe – lots of fringe – to flood your Instagram timelines for the days to come. Whether you want to switch things up and go for a daring look or dress down and keep your look boho-chic, the event is sure to have more fashionable moments than we can possibly count.
Want to make the perfect outfit statement? Check below for seven style essentials to truly elevate your look:
1. Straw Fedora
One of the chicest accessories – and most practical for protecting you against the desert heat – is a straw hat. It is one of my personal faves and you can never go wrong with a fedora or floppy hat. Get into this one from American Eagle.
2. Flower Crown Headband
If you’re looking for a more feminine way to shield the sun while adding an extra oomph to your ensemble, a floral crown headband is definitely the way to go. Try this piece from Charlotte Russe for a relaxed vibe.
3. Sunglasses
Whenever I feel like I’m in a style rut and not sure how to piece together a certain outfit, I just grab a pair of flirty shades to instantly take my look to the next level in a subtle way. Speaking of flirty, I absolutely love these polka dot Dolce and Gabbana sunglasses. Yes, please!
4. Crop Top
Crop tops are the total style staple of any Coachella event. They reveal just enough skin without looking too inappropriate. Take this free-spirited piece from Otte – I just love the neutral colors of this super crisp top.
5. Denim Cut-Off Shorts
Cut-off shorts are another style staple that go with just about any top piece. The options for styling are endless – you can go for high-waisted, distressed, or a wider fit to complement your look. And did I mention they are perfect for dancing in?! Check these denim cut-off shorts from Nasty Gal.
6. Maxi Dress
Because I’m part of the short girl committee, I can never find a maxi dress that fits the way I want it to; however, I can’t deny that this piece is effortlessly wearable! Don’t you agree?! Shop this flounce maxi dress to get in on the trend.
7. Fringe Handbag
Fringe is one of this season’s biggest trends. Not only is it a nod to the 70s, but you can easily make a statement with any piece without trying too hard. I am absolutely obsessed with this crossbody handbag from Barneys.
Are you heading to Coachella this year? If so, which pieces are you planning to wear? Let me know below in the comments!
