So it’s that time again folks, the season of music festivals is upon us and these past few weekends has been all about Coachella. I can’t tell you how many Coachella vlogs I have watched. These YouTube vloggers make it look so effortless! Where ya’ll get this $$$? 😉
Coachella– The Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival is an annual music and arts festival held at the Empire Polo Club in Indio, California, located in the Inland Empire’s Coachella Valley, in the Colorado Desert.
Hit you with a little Wikipedia info, ya know just in case you live under a rock and don’t get all huffy over the thousands of Coachella posts you’ve been seeing day after day.
We get it, it’s fun. You’re having the time of your life. No need to rub it in. 😉
Let’s be real though, I have to admit- I’m lowkey- totally jealous. FOMO [Fear Of Missing Out] is real, thank you internet.
Not because I want to stand for hours, in a crowd of people in the California desert heat.
But because the whole experience kind of speaks to my flowerchild self.
I LOVE music, I love food, I love FASHION.
And the fashion at Coachella is bohemian and hippie child and I am so with it!
However, I feel like my anxiety would kick into high gear in an environment like that.
I don’t do well in crowded places or in intense heat. So right there I feel like I would have such a tendency to be completely miserable there.
But I do think it’s a really cool idea and could be a cool experience if I worked myself up to go.
I feel like I’d fit right in, with the fashion inspiration.
Here are my favorite Coachella looks, I’ve seen from the YouTubers I keep up with.
Niki DeMar on YouTube
Niki is my favorite Coachella look this year. I am OBSESSED with her blue hair. I always said I wanted to do something crazy like this. I’ve dabbled but it’s been a while and now with my job I feel like I can’t experiment like that. Anyway I adore her facial jewels and her nails! I also really love her cool and warm tone color combination.
Ashley Nicole on YouTube
Ashley has a bit of a more 90’s grunge vibe and I totally dig the black, and monochromatic shades, and the choker. And those glitter freckles! Come on now. I have real freckles and I love them, so I would be all about glitterfying them! 😉
Bethany Mota on YouTube
Bethany is my original YouTube Queen. I adore her. And I also love this sheer top she has paired with her denim shorts and the necklace tops it all off!
Kalyn Nicholson on YouTube
Again with the black and the silver. I love it! I also really love this long lace skirt trend paired with a big floppy hat…perfection!
LaurDIY on YouTube
Love this high low number and I also love Lauren’s heart shaped glasses in the picture below. Her mini space buns are adorable and I love how she’s not afraid to just keep it simple with some distressed jeans shorts and a funky tube top. Can we also just give her wrist full of friendships bracelets a round of applause! That’s commitment. Haha. I love that look of stacked colorful bracelets.
Tess Christine on YouTube
Her color combination and her fringed jacket are EVERYTHING! That print tho!
Sierra Furtado on YouTube
The bandana, the eye jewels, the sunglasses, very hippie chic, and totally cool! I dig it!
Mia Stammer on YouTube
Coachella is known for being the time where over accessorizing is a must. I love accessories and Mia killed it here! Super cool! I freakin’ love that purple ring!
Alisha Marie on YouTube
I love Alisha’s gladiator goddess vibe. The sheer overlay she DIY’d makes for the perfect cover-up.
Shay Mitchell on YouTube (Best known for her role on Pretty Little Liars)
Shay is keeping it simple here with jeans and a cropped knit top, but I just love the call back to 90’s denim and her hair…so rad. Yes RAD!
**Vanessa Hudgens- The Coachella Queen**
I feel like Vanessa is at Coachella every freaking year and she always has the best looks. I saw this one and fell in love with her butterfly braids and flash tattoos!
I feel like I would like to experience this at least once in my life. Despite the dirt, sand, lack of real bathrooms/sinks, and the intense standing in crowds on your feet…It has a lot of things I love-music, food, fashion, and cool pic options. Haha. Who knows maybe I’ll be brave one day and go for it! Or ya know just host a Coachella themed party this summer, for the hell of it! 😉
Last weekend I rocked this outfit, and I was feeling some Coachella vibes in there, a little bit…no? 😉
