As festival season hits its stride, the buzz from Coachella lingers in the air, paving the way for Stagecoach and a lineup of summer music events. If you’re plotting your festival itinerary, you’ll want to take a page—or several—from Lili Reinhart’s playbook. She’s pretty much a Coachella pro by now, so when we caught up with her at Revolve Festival, we couldn’t resist asking her for her top festival advice.
Just ahead, Reinhart spills the details on her go-to festival outfits, what she always packs, and the SPF she can’t live without. She’s got a knack for staying comfy in the scorching desert sun, especially when it comes to keeping her feet happy during long hours of dancing. She also shared her favorite beauty picks of all time, her must-have fragrance, what’s on her wishlist at the moment, and as a big-time book lover she let us in on the most recent books she’s enjoyed reading. Whether you’re a festival newbie or a regular on the scene, her tips are a gold mine for anyone looking to make the most out of this festival season.
A trend I’m loving at the moment
I feel like I’m not exactly in-the-know when it comes to the latest trends, but I personally am into short-sleeve button downs. I got some very cute ones from Anine Bing—she’s one of my favorite designers and has been for years. I think my everyday style is business-casual and all of her pieces are perfect for that aesthetic.
What I always pack for a music festival
A nice backpack, Miu Miu sunglasses, shoe inserts (since you end up walking so much on the festival grounds), a film camera, and makeup setting spray. Make sure you buy mineral-based sunscreen for your festival adventures, it’s hot in the desert! Supergoop’s SPF is s great option.
My festival looks this year
I’m wearing an ivory-colored swimsuit underneath a beige crochet matching set by Agua Bendita, and some cream Reformation heels to Revolve Festival. I wanted something that felt very poolside in Palm Springs. I also have some sequin-covered jorts from Self Portrait that I’m very excited to wear to the festival. If you’re going to wear sequin jorts, Coachella is the place to do it!
My favorite thing in my closet right now
I have an unworn vintage Dior bustier that I’m saving for the right occasion.
The beauty product I use the most
My Armani Luminous Silk Concealer, tied with my Image MD Restoring Lip Enhancer (with SPF 15).
My all-time favorite scent
Acqua di Gioia by Giorgio Armani.
What’s currently on my shopping wishlist
I have my eye on a Gucci watch and a pair of Citizens of Humanity jeans.
The last book I read
I am very into memoirs right now. I loved Julia Fox’s Down the Drain and Matthew Perry’s Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing.
