Coachella-newbie, from the traditional hippie look to something a little more trendier this year. With colourful, striped shorts paired with round sunglasses and a straw hat, the starlet definitely brought Coachella fashion to a whole new level.
#2 Lea Michele
The Glee-sensation wore a white beach cover, with her red bikini peeking out, bronzed pinkish cheeks and a lil hint of the smokey eyes definitely goes well. Anyway, what would a music festival be without TV's most vocal singer?

The Vampire Diaries star appeared at Coachella looking absolutely gorgeous in a lightweight, blue low-cut summer dress, paired with a tassel bag. She also came with an additional accessory, boyfriend, Ian Somerhalder, looking all-casual in a black tank and jeans. Both dressed all ready for the "smokin' hot" weather!

#8 Lily Collins
The sweet-looking, demure actress of the movie 'Mirror, Mirror' went for a more natural look. Her amazing facial features are her strength. She was spotted at Coachella in a fun, sheer day-dress with minimal accessories and a simple blowout. Simplicity is the new HOT!
#9 Kate Bosworth
Rocking black short shorts, a simple animal print T and a matching black combat boots, Bosworth jammed out in style and was sure all ready to pose for the camera.
#10 Emma Watson
Finally, our favourite pick for the weekend, Miss Emma Watson. Looking sweet and demure, she paired her light taupe strappy sandals with a strapless animal print dress, a navy cardigan and a floppy hat. Her cross-body tassel does add to the dynamics of her outfit. Ever so adorable!
