Whether you’re a Coachella devotee or the energy of Justin Timberlake’s current arena tour is more your speed, we’ve got the concert outfit for you. After all, when it comes to concert-going, a genre-appropriate look is almost as important as the music (well, to us at least). Of course, there are a few other factors to consider when seeking concert outfit ideas: You need to be able to dance, possibly walk long distances (especially if you’re attending a music festival), and brave the elements if the concert is outdoors. (On that note, also check out our cheat sheet of the best types of shoes to wear to a concert.) 

To help you decide on an outfit based on the type of concert you’re going to, we’ve compiled an assortment of celebrity-approved looks that would be perfect for the occasion. Read on to see and shop 10 concert-ready outfits for rock, country, pop, music festivals, and more. These should free you up to focus on the music (as opposed to a poorly chosen outfit).

This morning in Paris, I stepped into a snow-filled mountain village. It was the late Karl Lagerfeld’s last show for Chanel, easily the most anticipated moment of Paris Fashion Week. As we took our seats with faux snow collecting on our shoes, I noticed the level of set production signature to a Chanel show. There were branded skis leaning against fences, each little chalet had a steaming chimney, and I swear the temperature was set to a slight chill. I couldn’t help but notice that Lagerfeld’s two most recent collections also referenced seasons: summer at the beach for S/S 19 and fall among the changing leaves for F/W 18. An ode to the final season of the year felt right for Lagerfeld’s last collection. The show began with a moment of silence to honor the former creative director, and in the show notes, there was a sketch of Karl and Coco with the words, “The beat goes on…”

As the music started, Cara Delevingne appeared on the runway in a checked tweed–and-houndstooth ensemble topped with a fedora—a fitting opener given the model’s close relationship with Karl. The collection blended streetwear and ski wear, mixing winter fabrics with airy chiffon. Picture a woman on a ski vacation who is the height of sophistication but somehow makes it look comfortable and easy. Winter white was a major theme, supported by beige, navy, and black, with punches of pink, green, and red. Toward the end of the show, Penélope Cruz, a recent Chanel ambassador, appeared holding a single white rose to honor Lagerfeld. As the models took a final lap on the runway, David Bowie’s “Heroes” played, another nod to the iconic creative director. Anna Wintour led a standing ovation, with every guest in attendance rising to their feet. Post-show, I noticed many guests lingering, quite the opposite of the usual stampede for the exit. The sentiment was clear: The fashion set wanted to savor the last bits of Lagerfeld’s legendary vision.

Next, learn about Karl Lagerfeld’s successor, Virginie Viard.

According to Forbes, makeup guru/reality TV star extraordinaire Kylie Jenner is officially the world’s youngest billionaire at the ripe old age of 21.

Her earnings are mostly thanks to her makeup company Kylie Cosmetics, which she owns all of. Combined with other earnings — from social media, for example, which earns her a cool $1 million per Instagram post–Jenner’s net worth is now estimated to be $1 billion. 

The youngest of the Kardashian-Jenner sisters was not only named the youngest billionaire in the world, but also the youngest self-made billionaire. 

Previously, Facebook founder Mark Zuckerburg held that title after hitting the billion-dollar milestone at the age of 23. 

“I didn’t expect anything. I did not foresee the future,” she tell Forbes. “But [the recognition] feels really good. That’s a nice pat on the back.”

A pat on the back. Well, that’s one way to describe it. 

Before Jenner was a legit billionaire and only had a humble net worth of $900 million, Fat Jew actually started a GoFundMe page titled “Let’s Get Kylie Jenner to a Billion.” 

Clearly, that wasn’t necessary as her cosmetics line, which expanded from just lip kits to include blush, concealer, and eyeshadow, brought her net worth up to $1 billion on its own.

Some people, however, aren’t too happy about her being named a self-made billionaire, saying that she definitely was not self-made.

I mean, people of the Twitterverse can keep arguing from the comfort of their Ikea futons that Jenner is not “self-made,” but odds are she’ll remain unbothered and/or wipe her tears with a few crisp hundred dollar bills. You know, because she’s a billionaire.

Anyway, back in December, Forbes had released their annual list of the 10 wealthiest celebrities in America where Jenner had tied with rapper Jay-Z for fifth place with $900 million, but now, she’s the fifth richest celebrity in America as Jay-Z drops to sixth place. 

Currently, Jenner is the wealthiest in her family, followed by Kim Kardashian West, who’s estimated to be worth $350 million. 

Unfortunately, though, money can’t buy certain things, including loyalty. Reportedly, Jenner’s baby daddy Travis Scott has been busy chatting up other ladies on Instagram while she’s raking in cash. 

Apparently, Jenner found a number of “overly friendly” DMs in his Instagram inbox, which led to Scott deleting his account to prove his loyalty. TMZ reports that he told her the messages “didn’t amount to anything more than innocent flirting, and he didn’t act on anything.” Okay. 

We don’t exactly know what really happened, but here’s a life lesson: If you land yourself an ultra-successful billionaire who’s also pretty damn easy on the eyes, maybe don’t cheat on her.
