Here Are the Top Festival Style Trends for 2017

Mar 22, 2017

Coachella, Bonnaroo, Glastonbury. We could go on listing the hot ticket music festivals that deserve to be on every style influencer’s radar (but honestly, who’s got the time for that?). And besides, it’s the headlining festival style that’s really got our undivided attention. Ahead, we’re spotlighting 15 fashion trends we predict will be MAJOR in the months and weeks to come. Run, don’t walk to stake claim on some of the season’s biggest statement makers (feminist-embroidered jeans, paint splattering, and playful poms, anyone?) that we have a hunch won’t be fading away anytime soon.

1. Knitted Bandeau Bikini Tops: Show your stripes with this bandeau bikini top that’s begging to be teamed alongside a fringe maxi skirt or high-waisted shorts — give or take a tie-dye kimono and a patterned straw fedora. Brit + Co Pick: Scotch & Soda Knitted Bandeau Bikini Top ($59)

2. Embroidered Patches: How about some swag for your denim jackets, boyfriend jeans, baseball caps, you name it? This set of wild, wild west-inspired embroidered patches (cactus FTW!) can be used to personalize all your concert-ready threads without spending a fortune. Brit + Co Pick: Madewell Embroidered Sticker Patch Set ($15)

3. Mirrored Sunnies: Because what would festival season be without some fly shades (and maybe a killer suede fringe vest)? These pink mirrored aviators are ready to rage on from dawn to dusk. Brit + Co Pick: Quay The Plays Sunglasses ($60)

4. Frayed Sweaters: Not to completely overshadow fringe-tastic ponchos or anything (we still love you), but chunky frayed sweaters are where it’s at this season. A little south-of-the-border flair is exactly what the doctor ordered for a DGAF ‘tude during the daytime and unparalleled warmth come nightfall. Throw in a small suede sac and cowgirl boots, and you’ll be in business. Brit + Co Pick: Wildfox No Problemo Chase Sweater ($188)

5. Western Belts: Frayed hem black skinny jeans? Check. Oversized t-shirt? Check. A Western-style belt buckle that pulls it all together? Triple check. For a look that’s less rodeo, more bohemian goddess, just add some pointed-toe Chelsea boots. Brit + Co Pick: ASOS Leather Western Tip Waist and Hip Belt ($25)

6. Festival Floral: Imagine rocking this festive floral print buckle bag with an eyelet romper, woven huaraches, and some flash tats. Brit + Co Pick: & Other Stories Floral Buckle Mini Bag ($145)

7. Matching Sets:There’s something to be said about a one-and-done matching set that looks like you put in the effort (even if it only took a whopping two seconds to style). Exhibit A: This bombshell combo consisting of a gingham cropped halter top and high-rise pants is as sophisticated as it gets. Brit + Co Pick: Reformation Claudia Two Piece ($218)

8. Fishnet Tights: A much-needed alternative edge? Right this way. Team these fishnet tights alongside denim cutoffs (or high-waisted mom jeans) and a cropped hoodie for a festival-going look inspired by your favorite bad girl, RiRi. Brit + Co Pick: Forever 21 Kikiriki Fishnet Leggings ($18)

9. Pom-Poms: These ultra-femme peony pink sandals are picking up right where last summer’s eccentric lace-up tassel and pom-strewn sandals left off. AKA, hurry to snatch up a pair of these bad boys for limitless sartorial prowess. Brit + Co Pick: J.Crew Suede Caged Gladiator Sandals With Pom-Poms ($198)

10. Windbreakers: As far as festival-going toppers go, off-duty windbreakers are the piece de resistance you *know* all the Coachella babes will be flocking to this spring/summer. This metallic rose gold jacket not only brings the traffic-stopping potential, but it’ll allow you to dance the day away, rain or shine. Brit + Co Pick: Topshop Metallic Hooded Windbreaker Jacket ($95)

11. Celestial-Inspired Jewelry: We get it. There are only enough chokers and suede bolo necklaces to be had before you’re all “been there, done that.” But wait just a second. We’ve uncovered the celestial-inspired choker that will have you seeing stars. Pair alongside a neck-plunging jumpsuit or a deep-V lace bodysuit for a getup that slays. Brit + Co Pick: BaubleBar Starlight Choker ($36)

12. Ringer Tees: Take a trip back to the ‘70s with this retro ringer tee emblazoned with the slogan “make love not war.” Proceed to reach for your beloved flea market flares and throwback clogs for a hippie-dippie look with RN appeal. Brit + Co Pick: Camp Collection Make Love Not War Ringer Tee ($56)

13. Tassels: Oh. Em. GEE! Kate Spade’s definitely onto something with these tassel-happy Arabian Nights-inspired shorts that are a hero piece in their own right. We dare you to disagree. Brit + Co Pick: Kate Spade Embroidered Camel Short ($228)

14. Overalls + Logos: Nothing says self-proclaimed ‘90s-babe-in-training like a pair of slouchy denim dungarees featuring an iconic Tommy Jeans logo patch. Throw in a bandeau top, a mini leather backpack, and white tennies for instant swagger. Brit + Co Pick: Tommy Jeans for UO ’90s Dungaree Overall ($179)

15. Tie Dye: Going hand in hand with the flowers in your hair, this tie-dye denim trucker jacket exudes girl power and world domination. The pastel wash and borrowed-from-the-boys fit will serve as a testament to your anything-goes street style. Let the peace, love, and good vibes follow. Brit + Co Pick: Free People Tie Dye Denim Trucker ($148)

I Used Social Media To Find My Perfect Coachella Aesthetic

It's festival season, and we're here for all the boho chic style inspo, new music, and FOMO-inducing moments that go down at the best after parties. After years of watching Coachella moments play out on social media, I finally ventured out to the desert for myself.

My very first Coachella was filled with the stuff of festival season legends. By day, I wore my best festival 'fits (and all the SPF) for the debut of Sabrina Carpenter's "Espresso" and Olivia Rodrigo's surprise performance. By night, I went to dreamy parties at desert mansions and came narrowly close to Taylor Swift at Neon Carnival.

But one of my favorite experiences of all didn't require an exclusive invite or high ticket price — Pinterest's Manifestation Station, the social platform's first-ever (and totally free!) pop-up at Coachella. Keep reading for everything you need to know about the Manifestation Station!

What is the Pinterest Manifestation Station?

It's a pop-up that helps you tap into Pinterest's best trends of the season, thanks to professional stylists and makeup artists on site.

Do you need a ticket for Pinterest Manifestation Station?

Image via Pinterest

No, just join the queue when you arrive to create your best festival look ever. No ticket or entry fee required!

When does the Pinterest Manifestation Station open?

You can visit Pinterest's pop-up from 1pm-9pm on festival days at Coachella Weekend 2.

Coachella Beauty & Fashion Trends For 2024

Image via Pinterest

As always, Pinterest Trends is one step ahead of even the most stylish among us. They're bringing the most aesthetic micro trends to real life, no matter how niche. A team of styling and beauty experts is helping festival-goers lean into the looks we've all been pinning, from light and airy coquette and fairycore to dark feminine aesthetics like Lana Del Rey-core. It's safe to say that everyone looked so fab that I had to get in on it all!

A Coquette Fairycore Makeover

Image via Pinterest

I arrived at Coachella in a light floral set (one of my go-to warm weather outfits) and decided on the spot that I wanted to tap further into the fairycore and coquette aesthetic. The Pinterest team didn't skip a beat in helping me achieve my perfect festival look.

Image via Pinterest

We started with a light blue eye shadow to tap into the sugar plum vibes. As a maximalist who loves a little extra sparkle, I naturally opted into the inclusion of micro pearls to frame my eyes.

Image via Pinterest

Like every Pinterest girlie as of late, I'm still stuck on the Y2K and bow trends. There was a huge selection of bows in every size and color to choose from, but I settled on alternating baby pink and periwinkle. We added butterfly clips to my braids and topped off the look with more pearls in my hair.

7 New Trader Joe’s Items Under $5 You Need To Try In January

Trader Joe’s loves to keep us on our toes when it comes to their new arrivals. We’re constantly monitoring the aisles to discover all the new TJ’s sweet treats and savory snacks they launch – and these 7 new picks for January 2025 are not to be missed! All of these Trader Joe’s products will run you less than $5, which only makes sealing the deal on your grocery bill easier.

From delicious dips to a very enticing new frozen meal, these are the 7 best new Trader Joe’s finds you absolutely need to try in January 2025.

Trader Joe's

1. Teensy Candy Bars

These tiny little candy bar bites ($2.99) resemble Snickers in the best way possible: layers of nougat, caramel, and peanuts are enveloped in a delicious chocolate coating for maximum snackage. We're gonna have to resist eating the whole bag! TJ's even suggests using these bits as decoration for other desserts, like sprinkling some on a scoop of ice cream or baking them into some cookies.

Trader Joe's

2. Olive Tapenade Hummus

Trader Joe's array of dips is simply too good to resist, and this newcomer hummus ($3.49) is no exception! It's a tub of "smooth and nutty" hummus topped with a tapenade comprised of black olives, manzanilla olives, capers, and olive oil to give it a salty effect. It's gonna taste so great as a dip for crackers or as a spread on a Mediterranean pita wrap.

Trader Joe's

3. Organic Concord Grape Jelly

This squeezable grape jelly ($3.49) is nothing short of nostalgic. Trader Joe's says it's "super smooth, joyously juicy, and potently purple," which immediately has us sold on making PB&Js every day now.

Trader Joe's

4. Spicy Chicken Nuggets

Oh, yeah. Bring on the spice with these spicy nuggs ($3.99) that make the perfect easy meal no matter the time of day! Made from all-natural chicken breast and rib meat, breaded with wheat, rice and corn flours, then covered in hot sauce and lightly fried, TJ's has their texture down to a tee. You can easily cook 'em in the air fryer, oven, or microwave before chowing down!

Trader Joe's

5. Crispy Potato & Poblano Pepper Tacos

These halved and fried frozen tacos ($4.99) will totally crush your Taco Bell cravings, since they come together super quickly and contain flavors with mind-blowing authenticity! Each taco is filled with a blend of seasoned mashed potatoes and some "ever-so- slightly spicy" poblano peppers that'll work so well with any dipping sauce, from TJ's salsa to their creamy Jalapeño Sauce.

Trader Joe's

6. Strawberry Mini Hold The Cone!

Just in time for Valentine's Day, Trader Joe's is debuting a new flavor ($3.99) of their classic Hold The Cone! frozen dessert: strawberry! These tiny, chocolate-covered cones are lined with even more "rich" chocolate on the inside, then packed with strawberry ice cream, which TJ's says is crafted with plenty of strawberry purée.

Trader Joe's

7. Caesar Salad Dip

Trader Joe's shoppers have said this new Caesar Salad Dip ($3.69) makes a perfect girl dinner addition– which, if you get it, you get it! The tub starts with a "creamy" base that's then loaded up with Caesar-seasoned sour cream, mayo, anchovy paste, Parmesan, and finely shredded Romaine for the crunch. It's best enjoyed with crackers or veggie sticks to dip, but you could also smatter fried chicken or seared steak in it for some ahh-mazing flavor!

Zendaya Surprised Fans At Coachella Weekend 2 During Labrinth's Set

Coachella was full of surprises this year, from $60 burritos to Frank Ocean’s controversial set. But if anything could make up for these losses, it’s Zendaya. The Euphoria lead surprised fans during Labrinth’s performance on Saturday, singing along to “I’m Tired” and “All For Us” from the cult classic teen drama.

Dressed in knee-high leather boots and a pink corset dress, with her hair flowing effortlessly down her back, the star stunned in a festival-ready look.

www.youtube.com

Labrinth & Zendaya - All For Us (Live at Coachella 2023)

Following her performance, the award-winning actress took to Instagram to share her appreciation: “I cannot express my gratitude enough for this magical night. Thank you my brother Labrinth for inviting me and giving me the most beautiful safe space to be on a stage again. And to the crowd tonight ... wow ... my heart is so full,” Zendaya wrote. “I can’t thank you enough for the love I received tonight, made all my nerves melt away, I'm so grateful.”

The retired Disney Channel star also posted a video with a message for her fans: “I have never heard screaming like that in my entire life,” she shared. “As soon as I turned the corner, I couldn’t hear anything. I couldn’t hear anything but you guys. I don’t know what happened, I don’t know what I sounded like. But I was like, you know what? I'm just gonna have fun. And whatever. You know ... it was so special. Everybody was singing along, and it was so cool. So so cool. So thank you all for welcoming me back on that stage with open arms.”

Who else made a guest appearance?

Sia & Labrinth - Thunderclouds 🌩 (Live from Coachella)

Zendaya wasn’t the only surprise during Labrinth’s set. Singer and Songwriter, Sia drove fans into a frenzy when she and dancer Maddy Ziegler joined the stage to perform “Thunderclouds.”

What else has Zendaya been up to?

www.youtube.com

Zendaya - Replay

Zendaya’s appearance marked her first time performing live in over seven years. Zendaya released new music a decade ago, with the hit single, “Replay,” on her self-titled album. We hope to see the star hit the stage “again and again,” but until then, at least we have season three of Euphoria to look forward to.

The Internet's Convinced Dua Lipa & Callum Turner Are Engaged

Dua Lipa and Callum Turner spent New Years Eve together, and based on the giant ring Dua's wearing on THAT finger, it looks like they could be spending the rest of their lives together too! This celebrity couple were first spotted together in January 2024, and immediately became my favorite couple, like, ever. Engagement rumors were flying by the end of the year, and thanks to Dua Lipa's latest Instagram posts, the internet is more convinced than ever that these two will be headed down the aisle soon.

Here's everything we know about those Dua Lipa and Callum Turner engagement rumors.

Dua Lipa's been wearing a gorgeous ring on THAT finger since Christmas.

A post shared by DUA LIPA (@dualipa)

In a post celebrating the holidays, Dua Lipa posted a roundup of photos — led by a shot of her wearing a sherpa jacket and reindeer antlers. But as fun as her outfit is, the internet immediately focused on another detail: her new ring. It appears to be a diamond on a chunky gold band, and if you ask me, the ring's modern, glam look is the perfect vibe for the "Houdini" singer.

"THE RING," one user commented, while another user said, "ENGAGED VIBESSSSSSSSSS," under another end-of-year post.

And when Dua Lipa finally posted photos from her epic New Year's Eve celebration on January 3, a third user commented, "We all still waiting to see the 💍." TLDR; the singer's fans really want to know if she's engaged! But if there's one thing I know for sure, it's that this couple won't tell us unless they want to. And I'm here for it!

And Dua Lipa and Callum Turner are totally "mad about each other."

A post shared by DUA LIPA (@dualipa)

Dua Lipa and Callum Turner keep their relationship pretty private (aside from some very cute walks), but according to one Page Six source, they've been "mad about each other" from the start. And it's clear because these two can't keep their hands off each other!

"Dua and Callum are so in love and know this is forever," a source told The Sun in December 2024. “They are engaged and couldn’t be happier. Dua has had one of the best years of her career professionally and this is the cherry on the cake."

"Callum is such a solid support for Dua and they make a wonderful couple," the source continues. "Their family and friends are so happy. It’s been an amazing Christmas for them.”

Stay tuned for the latest news on Dua Lipa and Callum Turner's potential engagement, and read up on Tom Holland and Zendaya's engagement!
