COACHELLA 2014!

It’s that time a year again folks! The infamous California music/arts festival, better known as Coachella, kicks off first weekend for the 2014 festival this Friday, April 11th. So, congratulations if you were one of the lucky ones that had an extra $375 lying around to get a pass when they went on sale back in January. As much as I’d like to be in attendance myself, I”ll be working to try and save up for a pass to next years festivities. However, I can hook you guys up with some cool band merch to rock at your favorite shows this year and give you a heads up on a few trends happening as well as some of my personal style predictions to keep an eye out for while camping. From Hip-hop to Rock, we’ve got you covered. Let’s get into it!

This year, hip-hop power duo, Outkast will be headlining the first Friday of the festival. Be sure to grab a “Heavy” Tee to wear when you watch  Andre 3-Stacks and Big Boi rock the stage. Complete your festival fit with your favorite bucket hat or safari hat. My prediction is that you can expect to be one of the few people not wearing one this year.

For the rockers looking catch the Foster the People show, or anticipating the Queens of the Stone Age face-melting performance on Saturday, we’ve got a ton of options to choose from. Be sure to bring your dorky, light-up-frame sunglasses with you to rock at these night shows. Or you can always just let the pretty girl you meet/are with at the show wear them. Just make sure she’s not wearing any ugly hipster boots, that’s a no-no. (Holy boots!)

And please don’t be “that guy” wearing dream catcher spectacles. Girls don’t dance with dream catchers..

I hope this has helped you make the correct outfit decisions for your trip, and if you just finished reading this and are now re-packing I apologize (not really). If you’re looking for band merchandise for some of your other favorite artists check out the list below of more available artists that will be at Coachella x Dress Code.

Artists: AFI, Afghan Whigs, Cage the Elephant, Kid Cudi, Motorhead, Muse, Nas, Sleigh Bells
