Nine Inch Nails
It's true: NIN is back, and it's offering all the angst and grunge-era music you can handle. Though the only remaining original member here is Trent Reznor, we're taking this opportunity to revive all the trends we rocked while watching the group on MTV — back when it was all music videos and Beavis and Butthead. This means channeling the overalls, baseball caps, and backpacks of the '90s. It's just like the song goes: "The best thing about life (like this outfit) is knowing you put it together."

Del Rey may have that summertime sadness, but we think this outfit would certainly cheer her up. This is your chance to join in on the singer's romantic style. The rose-printed circle skirt is the more obvious romantic gesture, here, but the subtle lace detail of the crop top makes for a perfect pairing. Doing up your hair real big, beauty-queen style is optional, but encouraged.

Though Vampire Weekend only began a mere seven years ago (making them relatively new to the music scene), these preppy indie rockers have made quite the impression. And for us, they're one of our must-see acts at Lolla. We recommend staying on the "indie" end of preppy indie, however, with a contemporary, totally dance-friendly outfit. We're in love with silver shoes at the moment, and pairing them with cutoff shorts that will keep you cool. The subtle pop of nail color is just the cherry on the sartorial sundae.
