Festival Fashion!

As the festival season is officially upon us, it got me thinking about my first festival two years ago. I found myself questioning what clothing is acceptable for a festival, do I take clothes that I will look good in, or do I go for the sensible option and side with my mum? I refused to let my mum win, and instead decided to come up with a compromise. first things first YES you do need a waterproof, don't try and convince yourself that you won't need it because it will most likely rain (it is England.) Secondly you may not like wellies but hey if you're trudging around in mud they are the best footwear to have. So, 'how do I wear these and still look nice at a festival?' I hear you say. Here are a few examples of your crucial festival apparel, with a stylish flair for those of you that want that key festival look....

This dress is typical festival wear. Tassels are a must! styled out with some sunglasses and boots and you're good to go. A simple yet effective festival look

This outfit proves that you can even accomplish a chic festival look with your standard green gardening wellies! Paired with the floral crop cut two piece your bound to look the part.

I just can't resist a colourful Kimono! This with a simple crop top, shorts, boots and a statement necklace is perfect for jumping around in the crowds whilst listening to you favourite bands!

And last but not least, don't forget this! 

Whatever you say this is an essential item which you can't go without! it most likely will rain, but even if it doesn't it won't hurt to be prepared!

Summer 2014, A First Glimpse At Summers Top Trends

As Summer is only a stone’s throw away, it was thought that it would be suitable to provide a post that features some of my favourite apparel items that have been hyped up for this years summer season essentials. 2014 has seen the return of many timeless fashion trends; from old school athletic, florals and tartans to off the shoulder pieces, amongst many. This Summer we will see the revival of long skirts, the new avant-garde dark looks, sandals and once again pretty pastels.

  

My personal favourite of this years Summer essentials has to be the great comeback of sandals. Whether they are flat-form, heeled or standard flats they are a top buy for this summer. They are great to wear for various occasions; festivals, holidays, BBQs and everyday wear.

Nobody can deny the great impact the Kimono has had on this years Spring/Summer wardrobe. This item can be worn to every occasion whether it being out for drinks or a day out in town. A brilliant cool layer for those warm summer days.

The Skort. An item that until this year was long forgotten, and only okay for tennis players to wear. This piece is able to be dressed up with heels and jewellery for a night out on the town, or dressed down with a pair of converse trainers and a vest top.

These short length baggy thigh trousers are back on my top buy list. Due to their tight waist and ankles they show off your figure by hugging you in the places you want ,and being loose in those other places where you don’t always feel comfortable. Great for every-day attire with sandals, trainers and a crop top.

Here are some examples of outfits, using my top essential items
