Well, Coachella is just as much about fashion as it is about music. People come from everywhere to experience this weekend long music festival. What you're wearing is a HUGE part of the experience, and so are the secret special guest artists that may surprise you during a set. So let's take a look hot surprise guests this year, AND the best Coachella fashion!

2. Calling all the emo kids

When I tell you that this announcement was almost enough to make me buy a last minute ticket... Blink-182 made a surprise announcement joining the Friday lineup. Can you imagine singing "I Miss You" and "What's My Age Again" in the desert with your friends? This is the first time the original band has reunited since 2015.

3. This fishnet shrug is somehow working!

Alix Earle is a TikTok influencer and fashion icon. She, of course, slayed her Coachella look this year with a bikini set and cut out flare pants. The fishnet shrug really brought the look together. Many influencers head to Coachella to create content for their followers, so the outfits need to be on point.

4. When Bebe Rexha made a guest appearance

Two Friends (Matt Harper and Eli Sones) hit the stage on Friday. These two are a dance-pop duo and they were playing the Sahara Stage when suddenly Bebe Rexha joined them to perform a few songs. Fans were freaking out by her guest appearance and performance of Grammy nominated "I'm Good (Blue)."

5. Howdy, y'all!

Saweetie not only served up some sweet guest performances, she did it in this amazing lace-up leather outfit. She was truly channeling her inner cowgirl with this look. What we love about this outfit is that it takes some major confidence, and Saweetie delivers that in spades!

6. We'd expect nothing less from Bad Bunny

Image Source: Reddit
You KNEW Bad Bunny was going to come through. During his first weekend as a headlining act, he gave the crowd quite the shock when Post Malone came to the stage! He experienced tech problems during his performance, BUT the audience got a night to remember with a special acoustic performance.

7. Hannah Harrell giving us this look

Tiktok influencer and fashionista took us along on her Coachella journey. We heard the vibes were overall a lot more casual this year than they have been in previous years. That being said, Hannah delivered a wide array of looks, but this checkered sparkly crop was our favorite!

8. If you don't know Becky G, you should!

One thing's for sure... Becky G is EVERYWHERE. This girl has performed with the likes of Christina Aguilera and more. So when she performed her medley of hits on the Main Stage, fans were excited to see Natti Natasha join her for "Sin Pijama." Natti is a huge star in the Dominican reggaeton space!

9. Hailey Bieber served us casual

Image Source: Reddit
Speaking of this year being more casual, the likes of Hailey Bieber and Kendall Jenner both served us with understated looks this year. Many people are calling it a "Coastal Cowgirl" look, and honestly we support it. It makes sense to opt for more casual wear when you're braving the desert elements, walking for hours, and just trying to vibe out to some good music!

10. The duo we definitely needed

Image Source: Reddit
Many fans of Calvin Harris were THRILLED when he brought out Ellie Goulding at the end of his Saturday night set. These two have collaborated several times throughout the years. Ellie joined him on stage to sing "Miracle." Who would you LOVE to see as a special guest at Coachella?

11. Can someone explain these pants?

Image Source: Reddit
We know the vibe, but we're confused about these pants. They look like the waistband is ripped off and replaced with... safety pins? Either way, of course, Kendall Jenner has a way of making just about ANYTHING work. But we're pretty surprised at this low-key look she delivered to watch her rumored boo, Bad Bunny.

12. Of course, Billie Eilish didn't disappoint

Billie Eilish is no stranger to Coachella. She returned to the stage over the weekend during Labrinth's set. Her appearance absolutely shocked fans! They performed their new collaboration "Never Felt So Alone," which, unsurprisingly, was co-produced by Finneas.

13. Dixie D'Amelio gave us something new

We loooove when people try new things and change up their style. Dixie has really been giving us more high fashion looks recently. Consider this her level up. This look was casual yet edgy and unique. Paired with the gelled hair and chunky combat boots, we are here for it!

14. Turning up the HEAT

Image Source: Reddit
Some people weren't as familiar with the artists this year, to which we say... listen to more diverse music! Latin sensation Rosalía surprised fans when her fiancé Rauw Alejandro joined her for the set. These two love to work together, and they're the definition of a power couple!

15. This is a more classic look

Image Source: Reddit
Emma Roberts gave us simple and sophisticated in this white Prada dress. Of course, when the dress says Prada, you can hardly call it understated. We love the minimalist look paired with the Coachella desert vibes. If you were going to Coachella, what would YOUR vibe be?

16. A Smith family reunion

Image Source: Reddit
Willow performed at Coachella, and then, SURPRISE! Her brother Jaden Smith joined her onstage to do a duet of "Summertime in Paris." Will Smith (their dad) was there to cheer them on from the crowd, which we love to see. Safe to say the Mojave stage was poppin'!

17. Ready to party

If you've been anywhere near social media, then you know the Revolve party at Coachella is THE place to be for influencers and celebrities. Storm Reid served us a look that says, "I'm ready to party in the desert." The metallic top paired with denim shorts gave party vibes but in a casual way.

18. We love this big energy!

Image Source: Reddit
When one of your biggest hits is called "Big Energy," that's exactly what you have to bring to the stage. And Latto did just that. She was joined by Saweetie, who's known to have a chart-topper or two! The two performed "BFDS Remix" and the fans went wild!

19. This one is NOT casual

Image Source: Reddit
Here's one artist that decided to buck trends and not keep it casual. Charli XCX went all out for her Coachella wear. This outfit is giving... well, a lot of things! But it's definitely showing us that she's not afraid to own the popstar that she TRULY is! We understand the practicality of casual outfits, but this outfit is way more fun to look at!

20. This duo shut it down

Tyga took everyone by surprise when he stepped on stage with A Boogie Wit da Hoodie to perform "Startender" and "Rack City." A Boogie Wit da Hoodie took over the Sahara tent on Sunday night, and fans were delighted when he also brought out YG to perform "Big Bank." Sounds like quite the set!

21. A little upcycling is good for the environment

Image Source: Instagram
Nigel Xavier's claim to fame is being the champion of Netflix's Next in Fashion series. So you know he had to serve major looks at Coachella. He loves to make upcycled ensembles, so he rocked this patchwork fit made from all-denim that people just couldn't get enough of!

22. We love a strong debut

Image Source: Reddit
It's safe to say that Jackson Wang's Coachella debut definitely made an impression. This Hong Kong born artist ended up bringing Ciara on stage, which fans were elated about. The two performed a medley together of some hits like "Lose Control" and "Level Up."

23. Racing jackets are the vibe this year

Image Source: Instagram
We saw A LOT of these racing style jackets all over Coachella. They kinda go with pretty much everything, and they automatically make you look 10 times cooler. Think it's time we go order one so we're ready for next year. What's your favorite Coachella trend that you've seen?

24. A stacked guest list

Kali Uchis brought out a TON of guests during her performance, and fans could not get enough! At one point Don Toliver joined her on stage, and then soon after, Tyler,the Creator also made an appearance. Plus Omar Apollo who was nominated for Best New Artist at this year's Grammys.

25. Another casual gal

Chalk another up for casual vibes. Singer/songwriter Tate McRae stepped out at Coachella in a simple jersey. We also saw her in a casual denim set paired with a lot of silver jewelry. This year seems to be all about balance! What's been your favorite look so far?

26. Bet she won't be lonely for long!

BENEE had a viral hit on TikTok, and now she's made her Coachella debut. It's safe to say she won't be a one hit wonder. We're pretty sure her fan base grew when she brought out Gus Dapperton to sing their collaboration, the hugely successful "Supalonely."

27. Fashion, but make it sustainable

Emma Chamberlain showed off her long legs in a cute mini dress made of denim. The dress comes from the Depop shop called Flamie Love. She chose to pair the mini dress with vintage sunglasses and T.U.K. Footwear shoes. This look feels effortlessly cool!

28. Blondie brought out this legend

The iconic Blondie took it up a notch when she brought on Nile Rodgers during her performance. The two jammed together on stage with fantastic performances of "Backfired" and "Rapture." What a queen move! There's truly something about Coachella. No two years are the same, and it's such a once-in-a-lifetime type of experience.

29. Kali Uchis delivered on fashion too

Image Source: Instagram
We already talked about her performance, but let's talk about her outfit! Yet another denim on denim on denim look that we're seeing this year. Kali absolutely slayed this look, and we love the addition of the 3D butterflies. Apparently the Canadian tuxedo is here to stay!

30. The more the merrier

Why have one special guest when you could have a whole slew of them?! Metro Boomin' brought out The Weeknd during his performance on the Sahara Stage. But he didn't stop there. Later, John Legend, Future, Sean "Diddy" Combs, 21 Savage and more joined him on stage!
