“Bought literally an hour prior to the shoot at Buffalo Exchange, the halter/shorts combo never fails to stun. And a little yellow at a festival never hurts either!”

“I’m wearing a light blue jumpsuit from Urban Outfitters for the color and the light material that makes it adaptable to Austin’s crazy weather even in October, and Zara heels and a purse to complete the look.”

“My outfit is from Forever 21, and it’s stylish yet affordable. I wanted to make the red boots the focal point, so I paired it with a comfortable button down shirt and high waisted shorts.”

“I really like this outfit because it has my favorite color blue in the pants and the headband. Also the bohemian detailing on the pants is the main reason I bought them!”
— Alysia Duhart
“We were inspired by “Pynk” by Janelle Monaé to wear entirely pink outfits for her set on Sunday. We thrifted our skirts from Savers here in Austin, and our bralettes are from Marshall’s and Victoria’s Secret.”

“The inspiration for this festival fit was part Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake’s 2001 AMAs look and part just my love of denim. I really like the denim top because the raw hem makes it kind of edgy and lets me feel like a pseudo rockstar. All items are from Zara minus the neckerchief, which I got from Urban Outfitters.”
— Lauren Cook
“I’m going to ACL to have fun. Nothing says fun more than a lobster print button-up.”
— Dallas Killeen
“I own one tank top, and ACL is the one day a year that I get to wear it.”
— Neel Homchowdhury

“I love the 2000’s look right now, so I had to have at least one early 2000s inspired look for ACL.”

“Being comfortable at a festival is a big priority. I chose this dress because it’s cute and comfortable!”
— Mandie Meier

“I like to keep things really casual mostly because I would overthink it otherwise. I know everything is a hot mess at festivals but my legs are mosquito magnets, so jeans with a simple cropped tank is really comfortable for me.”
— Saraeli Vela
