40 Lollapalooza Street Style Stars Who Totally Rock

so hot and so cool

Attention, people who don't live in Chicago: Lollapalooza is officially a huge thing. Next to Coachella, it may be the biggest, baddest music festival this side of Glastonbury, and the crowds, VIPs, and bands who came out (even those who weren't playing) demonstrate that no inclement weather can stop the mega-fest. (No matter how windy it gets. This is Chicago, after all.) On top of some stellar performances (OMG, twigs. OMG.) and insane drama (Travi$ Scott, for one), we managed to spot a whole heap of gals who had put their own spin on festival dressing. Because this is a music fest, right? Let your freak flag fly.

Is this a necklace or a bandana? Or a neckdana? Or a bandlace? Whatever it is, we want one.

You know what this is? You know what this is, actually? The spirit of summer music festivals, personified. It's as is Sonia was our Music Festival Fairy Godmother.

Ashley stuck out because she just managed to exude cool in the sea of hot, hot weather.

Okay, this is awesome. Instead of face paint, try rainbow jewels in a cool pattern. That way, nothing melts off. You go, Lysette.
