Aah summer time. When sunshine, booze and good times are plentiful. One of the key fixtures in our British summer are festivals. Glastonbury, T in the Park, Isle of White, Rockness. Which ever festival takes your fancy, you will need to get your style in check. But which fashion route to tread? Let us survey our options...
Boho Chic? Yes, we must blame Sienna Miller for this trend. Some summers ago now, she flounced around in long flowing skirts, wicker hats and crocheted cloths entrancing the female population of this country to follow suit. None the less the trend has flourished from year to year, high street to high street. Festival wear has somehow adopted this style and women a plenty adorn themselves in this manner. Update the look by adding more colour pop, than whites and nudes, and ensure you stay away from headbands. They are very last season, as nice as they may look.
What of wellies? Do. Not. Go. To. A. Festival. Without. Them. Fact! Yes, sandals or a pair of little white Keds would be excellent for sauntering down the high street, but you won't appreciate them when you are ankle deep in other people's excrement. Aah I do paint a delightful picture, don't I? Never the less, Hunters are your best friend. Not only do they come in a variety of colours, but you can even channel Chanel by purchasing a pair of quilted ones! Tres bien!
Personally for festivals I feel the best style to adopt is simplicity. A pretty summer dress or shorts, wellies, a waterproof and possibly a quirky straw hat or colourful scarf. Sorted? Well yes. At the end of the day there is no bigger faux pas than tramping around a field trying to pretend you are on a catwalk. Especially when you have not showered for at least two days. Embrace the simplicity and you are sure to look fabulous.
