Festival fashion Part One

Festival fashion is my personal favourite style EVER!
also including vintage which i will later blog about.....

Anyway Festival style orginated from the 60's (Also my fave decade ;) soo wish i was born then..) which bought the whole style phenomon worldwide.
We call them HIPPIES! well, they did back then but come on who wouldn't love to be a hippy??
OK, minus the greasy hair and the muddy B.O smell (ugh) but that's is why my friends we now have things to distract from them rather unpleasant disadvantages.

First of all i'm gonna have to start with the top 10 essentials not including clothes BUT, what you REALLLLY need for a festival and if your camping you might wanna listen up ;) :


*Baby wipes (soft AND moisturizing so doesn't harm on your skin)

*TOILET ROLL (queuing up for hours and then finally get in a cubicle and realise there is no loo roll...oh dear)

*Wellies are a MUST

*Torch (for night-time peeing)

*Blanket (casue a sleeping bag just isn't enough ;)

*A waterproof mac!

*Dry shampoo (keeping your hair nice and well clean-sish)

*Drugs and NOT the kind you get stupidly high off but for headaches,etc...

*Mini make-up kit, you dont NEED your whole treasure chest just the basics like mascara, lipgloss (to keep lips hydrated), concealer...Try to go au natural!!

*Suncream, sunglasses, sunhat but choose a high SPF with suncream even if you don't need it.


And now style for festival!!


Tbh, i wouldn't take your wardrobe either BUT then i would be saying just wear ya long johns and that's no fun soooooo......here are a few celebritys;

Alexa chung always seems to pull off any look thrown at her and this is yet another one of those styles that suit her soooo well.
With a stripy top and high waisted shorts that separate waist and hips, this suits her body figure tremedously and at the same time shows off her AMAZING legs that i so dearlt would die for!!
Knee-high socks and wellies again look so effortless yet simple, then topping off that cheery on a cucake with her biker look leather jacket.
Three words: I LOVE HER.



Daisy lowe looks drop-em-dead gorgeous in this years trend, fringing. This is such an easy look to pull off because the fringing does all the deatail for you therefore (as daisy shows) no need for EXTREME accesorizing. Wind-swept hair ( how DOES she do it?!) and a brown leather bag to distract from all the black.

I Love this model but her name slips my mind!! sorrry!!
As kate moss she displays the grunge look and the too-die for hunter wellies ;)



I J'ADORE sienna millers top/dress in an aztec design, again simple and beautiful with a plain brown belt and buckled boots. The blue shades and the studded black bag all work as gorgeously tasty cake mix you wanna eat staright from the bowl.


Kate moss, a true festival goer and brings the grunge yet glamour look where she goes.
A plain black tee, dressed up with a folk-like waistcoat teamed with khaki shorts (which are also a big hit trend this summer) and the most wanted wellies, HUNTER.




Hope you enjoyed, bringing part two soon ;)

love always
