Summer Hats

If you’re lucky enough to attend a festival where the sun is beaming and spirits are high, it is very important to keep yourself protected from the sun – whilst looking great, of course! Many high street and high end stores have started selling floppy festival hats for the festival season and we love the designs they have come out with this year. We love this one from Topshop, perfect for protecting yourself from harmful rays and easy to accessorise with many outfits!

Denim Shorts

Parting with your beloved skinny jeans can seem like a daunting thought, but with soaring temperatures and mud at every turn, it may make you reconsider your fashion choices. Dare to show a little skin and opt for some denim shorts with a loose fitting vest for a comfortable and stylish festival look. With a range of different denim colours and lengths to play with, the outfit possibilities are endless.

Rain Coat

Even if you’ve been checking the weather forecast every day up to the festival and several times on the actual day, you should always take a rain coat as we are in Britain after all. Protect your hair and outfit with a simple, lightweight rain coat. Boohoo stock a simple transparent rain mac that is perfect for festival season at the ridiculous price of £1!
