When the sun is shining there is no better way to spend a day than listening to your favourite bands/tunes at a festival or gig. Its definitely the time to experiment with fashion and to show a bit of the rock chic in you! A festival is really just an outdoor fashion parade with music, so let your hair down, get in the spirit and have some fun! Festival fashion is all about the celebration of your individual style and choosing pieces that you love and fit you perfectly. Remember that your look does not have to match, think, boho, hippy, rave, rock and grunge! Also layer-up as the British weather is very unpredictable, so pack
gorgeous dresses dresses with contrasting colour boleros/shrugs and shawls.
Soft jerseys are the perfect party attire, loose, comfortable and cool you will definitely not feel constricted on the terrace or dance floor. Maxis are the dress of the season, very boho, mix and match with a loose-fit waistcoat and suede fringed boots for a look-at-me, yet have not tried too hard approach. The waistcoat has definitely emerged as a festival favourite to rock with a simple dress, think Kate Moss at Glasto.
Cut-up denim jackets are great for sporting with colourful, cutesy cotton day-dresses, wear with big chunky boots for that sweet but hard edge, think an off-duty Daisy Lowe. Jeans are not an option, in the heat they're too hot and if they get wet theyll never dry. Leggings are comfy, flexible, light and easy to pack in your rucksack and with so many colours on the market you can find a few pairs to accompany your favourite festival finds.
Oversized tees and dresses are fantastic for festivals, if you like to look more girly than opt for a loose fit shift style. Easy-to-wear and comfy, perfect to throw on and go. Remember to choose darker colours like graphite, navy and black as if you away for a few days these shades will not show up dirt. Also remember to pack a parka and don't forget to wear your wellies!
