Be it Vfest, Glasto, or Reading & Leeds (to name but a few) the summer festival has acquired a name for itself. Moving away from that “boho” status, today’s festival is dubbed a fashion catwalk in its own right. You only have to look at Kate Moss donning her Hunter Wellies in 2006 to see that the festival look has taken a complete U-turn since.
So what’s a girl to do? The conundrum stands that you need to look stylish but effortless and practical but cool. So, in light of this I’ve put together my top festival tips:
1. Hats. Gone is the chance to straighten your hair and spend hours in front of the mirror. A nightmare, unless you come armed with a hat or accessory which will shade your locks come day 2. Braided Siren Sun Hat
2. Shoes. No sky heels girls, actually no heels at all. Flats are the way to go, whether it is some pretty flip flops or a stylish wellie. Havaiana Issa in Black
3. Wrap up. You know the British weather can be unpredictable. A small cover up is perfect as it fits in your bag, but equally looks stylish. Darling Libby Cardigan in Taupe
4. Bags. The festival essential. You need something of decent proportion but something that equally shouts ‘laid back'. Lupo Abanico Masai Stitch Pleated Handbag in Brown
5. Funky Jewellery. You might need some colourful jewellery to draw attention away from those muddy wellies! ChloBo Summer Love 15 mm Red Bead Bracelet with Peace Sign
So there you have it, my festival style tips! And as for those little extras, don’t forget your hand sanitiser, pocket tissues, sunblock and shades. Oh yes, and your mobile phone charger…most festivals now have emergency charge up booths, so you can always stay in touch with your festival party!
Enjoy!
