Nicole Richie

The fashion designer and mother of two is best known for her signature bohemian style (which is exemplified through her House of Harlow 1960 clothing line), so it's no wonder she's an expert at Coachella dressing. This year, Richie's all about ease and comfort, and recommends coordinating ensembles to take the guesswork out of packing.

"Matching sets are perfect for festival season. It's a full outfit that looks put together, but feels effortless," she tells PEOPLE.

Shay Mitchell

The Pretty Little Liars actress dished up plenty of savvy advice for festival-goers, noting that function is just as important as fashion."It's going to be hot out there in the desert, there's going to be a lot of people, and you're going to want to have a hands-free solution for staying hydrated. The Beis Water Bottle Sling is the most compact, chic little festival companion," she said. "This guy can carry a full-size water bottle (or hey, a can of Onda Tequila Seltzer), plus any essentials you need for the weekend."

The star also gave two thumbs up to a sparkly sheer dress (which could double as a bathing suit cover-up) and a standout pair of white cowboy boots, in addition to a clever chain necklace that keeps your sunglasses safe and in sight at all times.

"There's nothing worse than losing your favorite pair of sunnies. Trust me, I know firsthand. I'm basically an expert at sunglass loss now and yet have no excuse. I love that this tortoiseshell acrylic chain is just chunky enough to be a statement, yet slim enough not to overwhelm."

Peyton List

The actress and Pley Beauty founder tells PEOPLE that she'll be wearing a little denim dress and cowboy boots to beat the heat, plus packing up her own beauty products to create a playful matching makeup.

"This is the go-to eyeshadow palette for festival season because it allows you to add bold pops of color, but it never feels intimidating," she explained. "I also love this sheer pink gloss because it's subtle enough to let your eyes take center stage, but still feels festive with its light-reflective shimmer and sparkle."

Remi Bader

The popular body positivity influencer says comfort is key when it comes to styling her Coachella 'fit, noting that Good American is one of her top picks for flattering, size-inclusive looks.

"I'm obsessed with this set because not only does it come in a wide variety of sizes, but it's cute and comfy — which are the two most important things to me when it comes to style. How are you supposed to dance and frolic around all day without being comfortable?" she tells PEOPLE. "The sneakers are perfect to wear with this set, and [I'll] throw on the green Ray-Bans to match. I love the whole look!"

Camila Coelho

The content creator gravitates towards rich textures like leather and suede when styling looks for Coachella.

"I love wearing leather pieces for festivals. It's edgy, sexy, and adds a western vibe. My top pick would be these pants, which have a straight-leg cut that go perfectly with boots and allow for great airflow in the desert," she explained. "The side cutouts make all the difference because they show a bit of extra skin in a cool way. I would style these with a basic crop top, a mix of fun chain necklaces, and a black hat. Totally my vibe!"
