Of the many Coachella stories I have (I was there in the desert for the Tupac hologram, the Red Hot Chili Peppers singing through an intense sandstorm, and Calvin Harris bringing out Rihanna as a surprise guest to perform “We Found Love”), my favorite personal fun fact was that the date of my senior prom had to be moved because 70 percent of the junior and senior classes was going to Coachella instead. Very LA of everyone and speaks volumes of just how prolific this music festival was—and still is.
Coachella will always hold a special place in my heart, and as weekend 1 kicks off, the best nail looks of this week give me that nostalgic festival feeling. We’ve got Kylie Jenner’s minimally chic jeweled mani that I’m lowkey obsessed with. Then, there are many spring florals that channel that quintessential flower-crown energy in a cool, modern way. There are also sparkle and velvet finishes that are just super fun.
