Coachella is almost here and hopefully, by now you’ve got your wristband, accommodations, and a ride ready to go! What else are you taking with you? You’ll be in the desert for at least three days and you’ll want to make sure you’re well prepared. Here’s The LA Girl’s Ultimate Coachella Packing List to make sure you bring everything you absolutely need and more.
Clothes
Unless you don’t really care about fashion, make sure you pack your crop tops, fringe boots, and distressed denim. No matter how trendy you look, you also want to make sure you’re comfortable because it’s going to get hot out there!
2 dresses
2 pairs of shorts
4 tops
2 bras
8 pairs of underwear (2 for every day that you’ll be there, I like to sleep in clean underwear)
1 hat
1 rain jacket/poncho
1 sweater or a jacket (so you have something for when it gets cold at night)
2 swimsuits (for hotel pool parties!)
1 bandana
And 1 pair of pants to sleep in
MAJORELLE Valentina Crop Top – $168
MAJORELLE Kinley Top – $198
Shoes
Make sure the pairs you choose are comfortable since you will be walking in them for up to 12 hours a day. Don’t risk it by bringing new shoes that haven’t been broken into yet!
1 pair of sandals
1 pair of flip flops
1 pair of boots
Accessories
You don’t want to be carrying too much with you throughout the day. A backpack or a cross-body bag is perfect to keep your hands free. A small purse or wallet with all your essentials should be all you need.

Bandana (for the dust)
