by Caroline Grosso

Love Coachella? We are packed and ready to go, but in the spirit of trying out a new look this year (and not wearing denim cut-offs like every other girl), we’ve scoured the web for 21 different pieces to wear, with nary an undone hem in sight. Perfect for a poolside bash, the Electric Carnival, or for actually watching one of the weekends’ many performers, including Radiohead, Lorde, Lady Gaga, and more, here are the true items that will catch street-style photographers’ eyes. For those of you still tempted by a distressed low-rider denim short–or jort, if you must–click through for some very fashionable, and still functional, alternatives that may just change your mind and last you through the long summer months.
