  • Last year's Coachella style champ: model/actress Rosie Huntington-Whiteley in a J Brand shirt, J Brand x Christopher Kane Spring 2012 denim short, taupe Givenchy ankle boots, a JewelMint necklace and Westward Leaning sunglasses.
  • We love how Diane Kruger paired her Stella McCartney palm-print dress with Isabel Marant's cult-favorite Dicker boots.
  • More Dicker boot love, courtesy of Kate Bosworth.
  • Not even scorching desert temperatures could persuade Dita Von Teese to veer from her signature retro style.
  • When in doubt, dress for comfort. We love these easy, breezy bottoms on Emma Roberts.
  • The key to piling on accessories? Keep it all in the same color family, as demonstrated by Fergie.
  • What's a festival style roundup without boho fiend Vanessa Hudgens?
  • Nina Dobrev's Adriano Goldschmied maxi dress offers a nice color pop.
  • Emma Roberts is all smiles in a Nightcap Clothing diamond crochet bodysuit and Lavish Alice floral hotpants.
  • Paris Hilton, pre-sweatpants phase.
  • Nikki Reed ties a knot at the hem of her maxi dress to keep it from dragging.
  • Floppy hat? Check. Flat boots? Check. Fringe? Check.
  • Emma Watson combats chilly desert nights in a fuzzy vintage jacket.
