Find Your Go-To Festival Look
"For daytime, a great pair of shorts or a skirt are a must with a flowy top and a cool hat. For night, a maxi dress with a jacket is perfect for when it gets cold."

Accessorize Your Outfit
"I like to layer jewelry, and that is the main reason I designed a lot of simple pieces that you can combine together. Also, if you are wearing a simple outfit, it is great to combine it with a statement piece. I am Brazilian and we love accessorizing, but I always make sure the pieces that I'm wearing are well balanced."

Embellish Your Swimsuit With Jewelry Too
"I have incorporated amazing ankle bracelets and body jewelry in my BaubleBar collection, which I think would look adorable with any bathing suit and all outfits! Body chains are in right now, and there is no better way to showcase them than when you are wearing a swimsuit."

Master the Day-to-Night Transition
"It is important to change up your accessories from day to night because they can totally change your outfit. Also, make sure that you have a jacket for a night outfit as it can get cold. Great jewelry, a hat, sunglasses, and a crossbody bag are festival essentials."

Stay True to Your Signature Everyday Style
"The majority of my collection is casual weekend clothing, so that's what I wear most of the time. We've also added bags and hats to the collection."
