So it's spring and you what does that mean, it's time for musical festivals. In Egypt we already started with a couple of jazz festivals with bands from Lebanon and Egypt. I know that in places like the US and Europe, the festivals stay for days. What I love about music festivals is how much everything is so chilled, everybody is having a good time and enjoying their time. I have summed up my top 10 favorite essentials for music festivals for style and beauty. I hope you can get some inspiration out of these for the next music festival you will attend.
Distressed Shorts
They are amazing and they are always in. Distressed denim shorts are breathy, they look cute and edgy and they are practical. You can choose any wash, length or waist style depending on your mood. For music festivals distressed denim shorts can be styled with anything and they will still look good, tank tops, band tees or even a bandeau. If you would like more cover up, you can try some distressed denim pants
Flower Crown
They are completely hippie and they give such a goddess look but effortless. Flower crowns can be worn on an edgy outfit to soften it or you can complete a feminine look with it and look like a hippie goddess. I love how you can wear a flower crown to keep your hair out of your face incase you are dancing and sweating and all, because you still look amazing.
Kimono
They are a great cover-up piece without making you melt. A flowy kimono style cover-up will be great on any top and shorts or top and pants, also they will look great on a dress or a skirt. Because kimonos are made from light fabrics, they don't take much of space in your bag in case you want to store it until night.
SPF
I never recommend caking up foundation and powder for music festivals. A natural look is best when it comes to makeup, especially that you will be there all day and probably sweating; also the bathrooms are torture if you want to fix your makeup. SPF is best for your makeup, so you would stay protected from the sun, I have mentioned lips and base because that's all what you really need to look natural and well put together.
Canvas
Canvas are the best of both worlds, they are practical and they look good. You can be stepped on and not have a bleeding situation, also you will be protected from any mud or shenanigans. Converse are the kings of canvas, you can have something girly like these floral ones from Zara. I actually own these pair from payless and they are so comfortable, make sure to wear socks so you won't have smelly feet.
Backpack
A tote bag or a satchel are always a distraction in music festivals, you are not mobile and you need something to hold your stuff. A cross body bag might be good, the ultimate solution is a backpack. It's a great choice to keep anything you have in and not even think about it, you can choose any fabric or print you want; personally I love plain ones.
Shades
Don't take your expensive shades to music festival, they will get smashed or you will forget them somewhere. A cheap pair of shades is a great way to accessorize and keep sun from blinding you. You will find amazing dupes for high end brands like these H&M ones looking exactly like the famous aviators from Ray Ban.
Interesting Nails
A French manicure isn't going to cut it in a music festival. Since your makeup is very natural, you can go rebellious on your nails. Don't wear fake nails and don't have 3D nail art, cause you won't look so good with one missing nail or half a flower on your nails.
Hippie Dress
A short dress might look nice in pictures, but trust me it's not practical for a music festival. A long hippie dress will elongate your shape, give you that feminine look and won't put you in risk of showing your underwear when you want to set on the ground. Ditch the strapless options, because you don't want to spend all your time worrying about a nip slip.
Stacked Jewelry
If the weather is sizzling hot, chance are you are not going to handle having jewelry on you. You can wear them anyway then take them away if you are feeling sticky and put them in your backpack. Friendship bracelets and ring sets are best for a hippie edgy look.
That's it, I hope you look extra stylish in your next music festival. xx
