Festivals are the perfect place to take fashion risks. Pair oversized shirts and dresses with a belt bag that's not your usual style. Clothing items should be easily washable. Festivals can get messy. Never fail with crop tops or tees with a tie-front! 1. Mini Skirt Mini skirts can be a stylish option at festivals, especially when worn with tops that are comfortable and solid shoes. If you attend a beach or desert festival, bandanas will provide protection from the sun, mud, rain, and spilled drink. To create a stylishly modern look, you can pair your mini skirts with classic black pumps, and a chunky father jacket. A round neck tee also works nicely; to add feminine flair use nude pointed heels. 2. White Silky Top At first glance, worrying about what to wear may seem silly when traipsing through mud and waiting in line for warm beer - yet getting your festival look just right can actually enhance the experience and doesn't need to cost an arm and a leg! Ailbhe Malone of Strategist magazine says you don't have break the bank when creating your festival ensemble. She says this white silky Sark piece is an affordable cool-girl staple that would be perfect over a vest and a West Side Story moment. Jiaras is convinced that cargo trousers will become a staple piece for festival attendees this year. They like how they fit flatteringly and "hugg your figure." These versatile pieces can be worn with sandals and a T-shirt to create a classic festival look, or you can add an edge and layer up chunky jewelry while wearing bandanas. 3. White and gold Heart Cowgirl Boots The fashionistas who are looking forward to a summer filled with music festivals have no better time to express themselves. Music festivals are a great place to show off your unique style. When choosing concert clothing, comfort should always be the first priority. Wearing shoes with proper support is essential for long hours of standing, walking and dancing. These white and gold cowgirl boots make a great statement at any summer event, be it a music festival, an arts festival or a sports festival. Pair them with a casual look like black tank top and denim shorts for an adorable casual ensemble. A classic leather western belt like this makes an eye-catching accessory in its own right; tie it around your jeans' waist or wear it over a T-shirt for the best festival outfit possible! 4. Sunglasses Jiaras enjoys injecting some humor into her festival outfits by donning eyewear that stands out. "Funky sunnies can help disguise the fact you have slept only 24 hours in 24 day and that you have been screaming one more tune since dawn!" She explains. She recommends including belt bags (also known by the names bum bag and waist bag) as part of your festival gear. She claims that these accessories come in particularly handy when it is hot or raining. The bags are designed for essentials to be carried without adding weight, leaving you with both hands free to navigate crowds or hop from stage-to-stage. Other sunglasses that you should consider taking to music festivals for this year include Y2K inspired twists on classic aviators & wayfarers along with cat-eye styles & logo-covered frames. 5. Belt Bag You want to be cute at music festivals but you also need to be practical. After all, the last thing you want is for your outfits or behavior at these events to become the subject of viral YouTube clips featuring festival fail army videos (ie those hilarious viral YouTube clips that have become an internet phenomenon). A belt bag provides a safe place for all your essentials including your phone wallet and keys. The belt bag is the perfect size to fit under your hoodie, or even over your miniskirt. Another great option is a lightweight poncho, which will protect you from rain as well as heat. If you want to protect yourself from heat, humidity or spilled drink, avoid any made of suede, fur, or leather. Or opt for one with half-zip closure so it can easily fit over your body. 6. Pink Bandana Festivals are a great place to try out new styles in a fun, safe environment. Festival fashion is a great way to experiment and push boundaries. Pink bandanas make for versatile accessories and can add some fun to your outfit. Pink adds a feminine touch to any outfit, while adding country charm. It can be used as a neck scarve, to tie back your hair, to create flower crowns, or even to decorate your backpack. This accessory is essential for every festival wardrobe.
