1) SHOES
Wear comfortable shoes like gladiators SANDALS for that perfect bohemian look : a strappy look can go with almost any style. PS: Neutral-toned goes with everything, so you won’t have to worry about packing two or three different pair of shoes.

BTW, walking in the dirt and mud can get your feet dirty, so you can choose BOOTS: they will get dirty, but it’ll just add a worn and vintage look to them! You can never go wrong with a good pair of booties either.
2) HATS
Fedoras are to Coachella as sand is to the beach. Protect your face from the sun while looking totally boho chic.

4) ESSENTIAL BAG

Go long with a dreamy kaftan dress that truly oozes music festival style. If you are not afraid of getting dirty, a white lace dress is an ethereal look sure to keep you cool through the festival days giving a 1970s vibe without being over-the-top retro.
10) BIKINI

Wear colorful swimsuit top (no need to bring the bottoms, unless there’s a lake or pool nearby) underneath your tank top or T-shirt in case weather heats up and you need to shed a layer.

Fringe is the unofficial adornment of music festivals. Get on board the trim train with this embroidered kimono (like that wore by Alessandra Ambrosio). If you’re there to get down, it’s fun to wear something that’s got a lot of movement. It’s impossible to not feel like twirling when your skirt is encircled in fringe.
13) SCARF

A lightweight scarf will save your life: when it’s hot, tie it around your head as a sweatband. When it’s cool, drape it around your shoulders. Heck — it’ll even work as a towel or a skirt in a pinch!
