Coachella is simply our favorite holiday of the year and to of us who attend every year religiously, it is our first taste of summer and the weekend we will always remember. The parties, the music, the palm trees and canyons as your backdrop make this festival so magical and special. Aside from the amazing music, fashion also plays a huge roll where everyone lets out their inner hippie.

Admit it, we all plan out our outfits months ahead and want to look our best. It’s important to keep in mind the “rules”, and not make the rookie mistakes: First, wear as little as possible because face it, it’s the desert and it reaches up to over 100 (it was 103 degrees on Friday!), Second, for the girls who aren’t a fan of the flats, (cough, like US) shoes become an important dilemma. Even though we would love to wear and sky high wedge, it’s simply not realistic. That’s where 80%20 came to our rescue. Walking around the festival in hidden platform wedges that are stylish AND COMFORTABLE makes us believe that miracles do happen.
