With music festival season fully upon us, it’s time to revamp what you’re wearing when you go west.
1. Wrap yourself in fringe. Scientifically speaking, there’s a 94.732938% chance that you’ll lose whatever jacket, wrap, or top you bring to Coachella. I mean, there’s a good chance you’ll lose your bra and underwear in a music(?)-induced haze, so, don’t spend big bucks. Look to brands like BooHoo to supply your festival fashion staples. Fringed kimono, available here.

2. Wedges that speak to the soul. If you’re not shopping Fortress of Inca for your shoes on the regular, you’re just doing it wrong. They’re purveyors of handmade, Peruvian shoes that look like you just walked out of Saks down about $765– but somehow you only spent around $175 and feel good about yourself because you’ve just supported Peruvian artists and designers. Check these wedges out here.
3. Leave the Rolex at home. I mean, parting with your fancy post-grad watch isn’t casual fun, but losing it is much worse. Invest in a couple statement, affordable watches from time to time so you can swap out your style and not feel guilty if you end up skipping through the mud with some lovely strangers who happen to share a fave song with you. This Michael Kors watch has a bright face, the shape and look of a Rolex, and offers easy wearability. Available here.
4. Pack one and done. Forget a ton of cakey makeup and heavy moisturizers. Pack one, light, refreshing moisturizing gel– your skin will thank you for not exposing it to yet another set of strange chemicals at Coachella. Simple Skincare’s Ultra Light Gel Moisturizer is full of good-stuff-only, goes on smooth without any oily feel, and is available just about everywhere. Check it out here.
