Okay, so I am heading to Coachella for the first time in about 14 days and if people haven't already noticed, I swear I've reverted to my 9-year old self going to a New Kids on the Block concert or something. I am so excited for the music, the people and of course, the fashion!
One thing I do know is that planning this trip can be fairly costly for most. You are paying hundreds for the ticket alone and accommodations/flights seem to be double or triple in price during the festival! So something might have to give, but who really wants to sacrifice style?
I have found tons of pieces, many from the Sale section of the Forever 21 website. The most expensive piece amongst these is a neon lace dress (below, right) at a whopping $34 CDN! Woot woot...
Most of these pieces are actually under $20, which is amazing. I will say that I didn't buy anything for myself from Forever 21 out of fear that many people could be wearing it. But now that I think about it; a. Forever 21 has a quick turnover, so once a run of an item sells out, it's pretty much gone b. a lot of people there probably don't shop at Forever 21, nor would they want to be caught wearing it at a music festival. So there's a good chance you might be safe!
I think the key is mixing things up. Get a piece or some basics that aren't costly, go check out some vintage or second hand stores for quirky pieces and add fun/interesting parts to your look like cool shoes, accessories, hats or headpieces. Either way, have fun! Any festival is a great place to play around with your look and be inspired to wear something you wouldn't normally.
I'll be sure to post a little fashion diary from the festival of what myself and my girlfriends are wearing, as well as any cool spottings :).
