Festival Fashion Inspiration

Following on from yesterday's post where I shared my top 20 festival tips with you today I thought I'd share with you some festival fashion inspiration. Outfits for festivals should be practical, comfy and make you feel confident there's no point in wearing something that you feel uncomfortable in or that you have to constantly sort - ain't nobody got time for that! I've been looking online and in stores for festival inspiration and thought I'd share it with you. (all items are linked and the photos are taken from the stated website)


This clear mac is super cool and quirky I've been thinking about getting one for a while now what do you think? I think they'll be nice for a festival because it will keep you dry and your outfit will still be on show plus it's got a hood and pockets. The only problem with jackets like these are that some of them make a horrible noise when it rubs together, this only is only £22.99 from New Look so wont break the bank. I really like these black ombre mom shorts from ASOS I actually ordered them last month so I had them for festival season, they have a little turn up and are high waisted which I love, I think they'll look really nice with a top tucked in like this striped cami from ASOS. When it comes to festivals footwear has to be practical and comfy for me and I love my Dr Martens I'd recommended them to anyone who goes to a lot of festivals. I would pair this outfit with a choker and a backpack so I had somewhere to store all my essentials and the mac when the weather was nice, I think this would be a cute outfit for any festival.


This outfit is a one stop shop everything is from New Look, the bag would hang nicely over the shoulder or across your body, it's great size for everything you need without the temptation to over pack and you can draw the bag in to stop people getting their hand in when your in the crowd. The high leg wellies would be great for a rainy day because with rain comes mud and the sunglasses would protect your eyes whatever the weather. Now on to the bulk of the outfit the shorts have a really nice tile flower print with a drawstring waist and tassels and the black cami would look nice oversized and slouchy tucked into the shorts, paired with the long line crochet fringed waistcoat would give the outfit a festival feel plus it's lightweight for when it's warm and you can layer it up with the denim jacket (again I'd wear it oversized) when it gets cooler in the evening.

Who says festivals need to be all about prints? This simple monochrome outfit is gorgeous I love the top from Topshop it's part of Kendall and Kylie range for Topshop and I think the wrap over, gypsy style and lightweight fabric is great for a festival teamed with distressed black denim shorts, a pair of Dr Martens, a cute fringed tassel bag from New Look that can double up as a backpack and an across body bag then complete the look with a leather jacket for the cooler nights. Just remember to pack a waterproof mac and your all set. I really really love this outfit *heart eye emoji*

Dress // Topshop
Backpack // New Look
Wellies // New Look

I love oversized denim jackets like this one from ASOS they might cool cover ups for festivals, you can usually pick up jackets like this at the stalls at the festival if your feeling spendy! This printed dress comes complete with pockets making it great for a festivals pair it with these calf length wellies to keep the mud at bay (they are only £17.99) and this cool quirky silver backpack from New Look. I have this backpack you might remember seeing it on my blog at the start at the month, I bought it for festivals as I love the structured shape and it's actually rather roomy.

I hope you like these outfits they've certainly got me in the mood to go festival shopping. Are you going to a festival this year? What's are you planning to wear? Let me know in the comments below.

OOTN | The Primark Dress


Dress - Primark
Shoes - Primark
 
You know what's it's like with Primark sometimes you go in and it's filled with lots of nice things other times you can endlessly search and find nothing. This time however I found this gem of a dress that someone had left hanging on the end of a rail luckily it wasn't in size and I wandered round the shop with it in my arms, I liked it and I couldn't put my infer on why as it's not my usual style.

The dress has a gorgeous graphic flower print and is a mix of navy, black and white. The neckline is racer cut which means one thing a strapless bra which is a bit daunting for me as I'm rather busty but actually I was surprised how supported I felt in the dress, credit to the bra but also a little bit to the dress as the fit is so nice. The quality is great for £13 it feels and looks much more expensive, my friends actually thought it was from River Island. I wore this for my friend Ruths birthday night out but this dress could also work for a wedding, the length is a good length not too long but not so short that your scared to move encase you flash something! Unfortunately the print of the dress doesn't photograph as gorgeous as it actually is which is a shame.

So I think I've raved about this dress enough for someone who at first wasn't sure of it. I'm so glad I bought it and thank you to the person who dumped it at the end of a rail!

Drip Drip Drop Little April Showers






 Coat - Marks and Spencer
Top - Primark
Jeans - Topshop 'Joni' Jeans
Bag - H&M
Boots - New Look
Necklace - H&M
Ring - New Look
 
These photos were taken very early on a rainy April morning and one way to combat the rainy morning blues? Chuck on the brightest coat you have. I bought this coat last winter from Marks and Spencer and I think it was £60 but I got it £48 on a 20% off event. I instantly loved the coat the minute I saw it, I loved the bright yellow colour and the collarless detail but was a little bit intimidated by it because it's not exactly subtle is it!
 
I teamed it up with a fairly simple black and stripe outfit now I think about it it's got a hint of a bumblebee about it. There are two bargains about this outfit the first one is the boots I picked these up from New Look at the start of the month for just £7 I like the half zip detail and the heel is a great high for everyday. The second bargain is the ring that I got from New Look for £1.99 its gorgeous, I love the teardrop shape, it's a great fit for the top of my finger and sits comfortably all day.

A Cold Spring Day

 
  
 


Jacket - George at Asda
Top - Primark (old season)
Jeans - Topshop
Necklace- Primark
Bag - H&M
Boots - New Look
Nails - Primark


You know what its like outside is bright and looking spring like so you dress for a spring day get two minuets out the door and its bloody freezing well that's what happens to me and that's exactly what happened this day. I wore this a week or so back when I went out for breakfast with my sister (thanks for taking the photos sis) we went to Frankie and Bennys and for once I didn't have pancakes instead I had the lighter breakfast and it was delicious.

When I got up in the morning it looked like such a lovely spring day so I decided to wear my mint green coat from George at Asda, I picked it up at the start of the year as I really liked the style it's collarless and a nice weight not heavy but not overly light. I paired it with my ripped Jamie jeans from Topshop and an old laser cut top from Primark that I love. I kept the accessories simple with just a gold circle necklace from Primark it was only £1.50 and I really like it, my bag is from H&M I love the shape of it and I like that its huge but structured it keeps all my things secure without my bag looking overly full and lumpy. The boots are from New Look and have not been off my feet since I got them from my birthday last October the heel is the perfect day size and they are super comfy.
