Festival Fashion

A festival is the perfect opportunity to show off your style and express yourself. Meanwhile, while roughing it for the weekend without luxuries of hair straighteners or blow dryers, it’s not always easy to scrub up well. Here’s our festival fashion picks for 2012.

Wellies
The classic symbol of a festival. Bright colours, patterned or just classic green. The wellington boot is timeless and quintessentially British.

Ditch the beanie for a cool straw or floppy hat this summer (Also great for covering greasy hair if you can’t face those festival showers)

Tents

Finally, we couldn’t do a festival fashion pick without mentioning your biggest accessory for the weekend – your tent!

If the thought of spending an hour pitching your tent on the first day fills you with dread, a pop up tent is for you. These Quick Pitch Festival Tents from Outwell Ventnor come in two bright colours, as after all, there’s nothing worse then losing your way in an endless sea of tents. Do you want to stand out? We’re loving this SunnCamp Mono Tepee.
