Date: Posted on Category: Fashion, Inspirations

For those who think summer and automatically think of Coachella rather than swimwear, you’re a gal after my own heart. Yes, music festival season is upon us. In case you missed my post on the “Ultimate Coachella Style Guide“, here it is. While music festivals like Coachella mean good music, friends, and good vibes, they also mean fashion. We are mad about all of the fashion parading around, but more specifically, the accessories. It’s all in the details!

Choker Necklaces

Okay, this is not like a suggestion, it’s like a rule. Of course, it’s the classic grunge black that’s got us going gaga –it goes with everything and makes a statement but at music festivals, you can take that up a notch. Get them in woven styles, with beads or gems. Have fun layering chokers, adding color or bling because with the sun’s rays out, catching any crystal will light up the whole venue, like seriously. But don’t be caught without one at your next music festival, especially Coachella!

Generally speaking, this is not even about age, but it could be. Maybe you’re just not ready for permanent ink. So why not try on some temporary body tattoos and see how you feel about it for a day or two. Don’t worry too much and just have fun with gold and silver designs that are cosmic and geometric and tantric. Remember, all fashion is about the attitude, i.e. self-confidence. If you love it, then go for it! For Coachella, it’s all about showing a little skin and a little ink.

When it comes to sunglasses for this summer’s musical festival scene, there is a huge assortment to pick from. How about a 1970s rounded frame with colored lenses or an extra-large pair that beckons all things funky and retro, maybe even disco. Another option is the aviators by Ray-Bans that have metallic lenses that catch the light and set all eyes on you. Literally, there’s something for everyone. Take your pick.

Bandana

Keep things extra grunge. The bandana is everything this summer. Why? Because it sort of does everything. It can be worn as a hair accessory a la Guns ‘n Roses or Amy Winehouse. It can be super French as a necktie. Hardcore like Rambo. In addition, it could also be worn as a wrist piece, or even Punky Brewster-esque added to bags, ankles, or legs. Go wild with bandanas. They are cute in any color, plus they can be used to wipe sweat away from major music festival jamming.

Statement Belt

Belts will never go out of style that’s why they are a staple in any girl’s wardrobe, however, be sure you’re wearing it right this season. With a pair of high-waisted cutoffs, a skinny belt will work well; try some pastel colors or even some neon ones –it’s summer, after all, let all those colors floss. If you’re thinking of wearing a dress, skirt or romper, a statement-buckle belt will definitely be necessary!

Crossbody Bags

We are girls. That means we come with bags, purses, backpacks, i.e. the whole kit and caboodle. Yep, we can’t go anywhere without a bag but for summer music festivals, we need versatility and we also need to keep things safe. Not only does crossbody bags let us have all our necessities, they also give us freedom to dance and fill our hands full of tasty food and drink.
