Festival-friendly accessories, set to be a hit at festivals and pool parties
Summer is in full force, which can only mean one thing… festival season is here! Who doesn’t want to see their favourite artist perform live on stage? We sure do, but who are we kidding, festival season is no longer just about the music. Fashion has become an integral part of festival culture, and High Street fashion stores have set the bar high with festival capsule collections fit for any fashionista.
In need of some style inspiration? We’ve teamed up with Tribe Alive to identify the key fashion pieces you’ll need to create the ultimate laid back, bohemian look.
The most important thing to remember when dressing for a festival is that comfort is key! No matter which festival you are attending this summer, there is bound to be a healthy dose of dancing and walking, so you don’t want to be restricted by ill-fitting clothing or sky high heels. Trust us, high heels and grass do not go hand in hand!
Beat the summer heat in this season’s festival favourite; a romper. Whatever your style preference, High Street stores are brimming with rompers of all different colours and styles; so you are bound to find your perfect match. To add a touch of boho chic to your look, simply pair it with a kimono. We’re currently loving kimonos with fringe detailing!
What would a festival outfit be without accessories? If you love bold jewellery as much as we do, you’re in luck that the sky’s the limit when it comes to accessorizing your festival look.
If the festival you are going to is in the daytime, one vital accessory you don’t want to forget are your sunglasses. While we love a good pair of designer sunnies, festivals aren’t necessarily the safest place for your most cherished shades. Most brands have a wide selection of budget friendly sunglasses available that are perfect for festivals. Personally, we’re loving the trendy, reflective colourful glasses!
This season we’ll be foregoing floral crowns in favour of gold jewellery with pops of colour (and plenty of tassels). Whether it’s statement necklaces and bracelets or stacking rings and simple earrings you’re after, Tribe Alive has you covered!
Not sure which statement pieces to invest in? We’ve selected our top 6 pieces to help you refine your search:
2. Ammo Bead Tassel Necklace *YCB Staff Favourite
5. Hexagon Stud Earrings *YCB Staff Favourite
We don’t know about you, but we cannot think of anything worse than hauling around a heavy handbag for a day of dancing and festivities. Staying the night? Who says you can’t travel in style? Tribe Alive have a gorgeous collection of weekender bags that will be the perfect travel companion. We’re currently lusting after the Indigo Stripe weekender!
When packing for a festival, don’t forget to pack a few basic (but vital) items to see you through the day: Sunscreen, lip balm, tissues and blister plasters (just incase).
