7 Festival Styles You Can Wear All Summer Long

Fashion
sona gasparian's music festival style

Hey loves, as I’m sure you’ve probably seen on Instagram and Snapchat, I went to Coachella this past weekend! I’ve been to music festivals before, but this was my first time at Coachella and let me tell you, it was an experience! Besides the music and hanging out with KB and some of my blogger friends, one of the best parts about Coachella was seeing all of the amazing outfits people wore! I saw some really crazy outfits, but there were lots of really cute looks as well that you could totally wear into summer! Here are some of my favorite festival styles that I’ll be wearing for the next few months! 

Festival Styles I Love

1. Straw Hats

A hat was absolutely essential at Coachella! Not only do straw hats look super cute and summery, they also add another layer of sun protection. (Which is always a plus in my book!) Straw hats come in lots of cute variations, like this one I wore from Zadig et Voltaire that is a bit darker and has a cute feather in the band. I also wore a light straw boater hat that was perfect for the festival—I plan on wearing it from now all the way through summer! sona gasparian's festival style

2. Statement Jewelry

Is there anything more fun than piling on layers and layers of jewelry? I usually stick to one statement piece, but the music festival was the perfect opportunity to have a “more is more” mentality! I love the idea of continuing this festival trend in the coming months, to go with light airy dresses and off the shoulder tops! Plus, who doesn’t love tasseled earrings? sona gasparian's festival style, off the shoulder topsona gasparian's festival style

3. Denim Skirts

I wore a denim skirt one of the days at the festival and I forgot how much I love them. I’m so happy this trend is coming back! Denim skirts have all the casual ease of their cut off counterparts but with an extra dose of girliness! Come summer, I’ll pair mine with T-shirts, light sweaters, and slides! sona gasparian's festival style

4. Fringe

Fringe has been a Coachella standby for years, but I usually only wear fringe as a statement accessory. One day at the festival, I wore a fringed sweater with one of my favorite brown suede fringed bags. I loved the contrast of the yarn fringe on my sweater with the suede! It’s a look that I can’t wait to replicate for some fun, vacation-ready summer looks!sona gasparian's festival style5. Sneakers + Dresses

Okay, so I didn’t actually wear this look, but it was everywhere at Coachella! I usually pair dresses with sandals, and rarely think to pair them with sneakers, but I’m so excited to bring out this look in the summer. It’s the perfect easy outfit for traveling and sightseeing!sona gasparian's festival style with silver sneakers


6. Backpacks

Not only are they super cute, backpacks are also so convenient! I totally wish I had brought one with me to the festival to hold extra water and a jacket (it got cold and windy at night!) There are lots of cute leather or woven options out there that I’d bring with me for traveling, to the beach, or if I have a lot of errands to run!

7. Hair Accessories

If there’s ever a place to go wild with hair accessories, it’s at Coachella! If you saw in my last post, I had so much fun using hair rings with Carly for my glittery festival makeup tutorial. The look turned out so cute, and I’d absolutely use the hair rings again as an accessory. While at the festival, I wore clip in pastel extensions that would look cute for festivals or for a summer party!

      Thank you!! I think straw hats are one of my new favorite accessories! :)

    Love seeing music festival looks! They may seem a little over the top, but they make total sense knowing how to put them together. Love the earrings and the hats!

    Thanks for the post! ?

  • ReplyayeshehApril 18, 2017 at 10:56 am

    I was #DED over all your Coachella looks! is there anyway you could do a hair and makeup tutorial on your last look? I am LIVING for it. The pastels hair clip ins look so great on you! (do you know where we could potentially get them?) the statement jewelry as well, especially adding pops of color and unique pieces to make a outfit more festive and fun! I definitely LOVE sneakers and dresses too! anyone knows you can’t wear sandals to festivals, your feet get sooo dirty and have drinks poured all over them (at least in my case!) anyways loved all the looks you have posted on your insta <3 #snapchatfam love you sona!

    • ReplySonaApril 18, 2017 at 2:43 pm

      Hey Ayesheh, thank you!! Those were actually just regular hair extensions that were dyed pink and purple! You can pick them up from anywhere then use a colored hair dye! Lots of love! xoxo

    Hi Sona! I absolutely love your festival style! Where is your black boater hat from?

    • ReplySonaApril 18, 2017 at 2:37 pm

      Hi love! My black felt hat is from 66TheLabel! There are lots of other really amazing similar ones out there too :)

  • ReplyEwelinaApril 18, 2017 at 12:11 pm

    Love this post! I really enjoyed going through everybody’s pics from Coachella and seeing these amazing outfits (including yours of course!). I love how festival trends look on other people but I have to admit it’s not really my style. But I absolutely love statement jewerly! I’ve been wearing it for years and I keep buying more :)
    Glad you had fun! Hugs! #snapchatfam

    I went to Coachella last year, so I know how hot it is and I had blisters on feet due to the walking we had to do, but surely it was a lifetime experience. Xoxo #snapfamforlife

    Thank you for all the tips, I love them. My favorite would be hair accessories which I plan to use more in the summer and of course sneakers + dresses, that’s just a must for me.
    P. S. Love all your outfits, as always. ?

  • ReplySadiaApril 19, 2017 at 4:28 am

    A maxi dress and wedged heels are always a go for me. Can dress it up with accessories for a day or night look. Jewellery is my favourite part with myself finding rings to layer up!!! And Headscarf pins (as a Muslim) I love being able to bring out the bright and sparkly pins to add to my look!

  • ReplyNayiriApril 19, 2017 at 8:10 am

    I love the combination of colored extensions and the straw hat!

  • ReplyJeanine A.April 19, 2017 at 10:14 am

    Awesome post as always! One summer trend I want to try are those Pom Pom sandals! They look so cute and cool! Lol ?Also I totally agree with you about backpacks! I love them and they’re so comfortable as well as convenient!! The best thing about them is that they can be stylish and very useful at the same time. Love the post as always ?Thank you ?

    I love denim skirts because they are never out of style. Whenever it feels like they are going to go out of style for a while, a change happens in their cut or color tone and BAM they’re back! ???
