8 Wardrobe Must-Haves for Festival Season

Coachella, Bonnaroo, and Governorโ€™s Ball are upon us, which means playlist-making, set time planning, and most importantly, packing are in full swing. If youโ€™re ready to prep your bag and plan your outfits, look no further. In this post, weโ€™ll be sharing eight wardrobe must-haves to get you all set for this spring and summerโ€™s upcoming festivals.

8 Wardrobe Must Haves for Festival Season

1. Graphic tees galore

Whether youโ€™re geeking out with Childish Gambino or moshing at Metallica, a graphic tee is always a great go-to when attending a show or going on day three of a festival. You really canโ€™t ask for more than a comfy shirt thatโ€™s breezy while still being effortlessly fashionable.

Pair a vintage graphic tee with a flowy skirt or high waisted shorts for a look thatโ€™s undeniably coolโ€”both literally and fashionably.

2. Versatile (and comfortable) shoes

Attending a multi day festival is hard on your body. From spending late nights on the campground to walking from stage to stage, youโ€™re more than likely going to feel the pain by the end of day 1. Thatโ€™s why we believe a pair of comfortable shoes is the key to festival survival. If youโ€™re going for a feminine look and donโ€™t want to compromise your aesthetic with comfort footwear, opt for a pair of pointed toe flats instead. Theyโ€™re still edgy (thanks to the angular shape), but theyโ€™re surely going to provide you more support and flexibility than a heel would on the festival grounds.

3. Statement shades

A pair of funky sunglasses is probably the most useful accessory you can pack for your trip. Depending on which festival youโ€™re attending, youโ€™ll likely be spending long hours in the sun which can be hard on your eyes and your vibe. For 2020 festivals, try out some sunnies with a unique pattern or retro shape to add some complexity to your look.

4. Flowy shapes

Thereโ€™s a reason flowy 70s inspired looks transcend festival style from year to year. One: a pair of wide leg, loose fitting pants or dress is breezy which is ideal for hot summer festivals. Two: their Woodstock-esque aesthetic looks great when paired with more modern staples. Three: flowy shapes look good on just about every body type!

5. Carry-all bags

When youโ€™re walking around the festival grounds, there are a few things you need to have on you at all times:

  • An ID
  • Cash and/or card
  • Phone
  • Sunscreen
  • Water

A carry-all bag is a must-have if you want to keep track of all of your essentials as the day goes on. Fanny packs, tote bags, and mini backpacks are all great choices because theyโ€™re small enough to not be disturbing to other concert goers, but roomy enough to hold all of your festival necessities.

Whatโ€™s more, a bag can add even more spunk to your festival look. These festival fanny packs come in really fun patterns and colors so youโ€™re sure to find the perfect balance between function and fashion.

6. Hydration station

If thereโ€™s one thing you absolutely cannot forget on your way to the festival entrance, itโ€™s a reusable water bottle. As we mentioned, spending all day standing, partying, and having fun takes a serious toll on your body so itโ€™s imperative that you stay hydrated throughout the day. Sure, you can buy water while youโ€™re there, but itโ€™s typically overpriced and the lines for concessions are almost always long. These reusable water bottles collapse when empty, so you donโ€™t have to worry about it weighing you down as you rush from one stage to the next.

7. Glitter is gold

One of the funnest things about getting ready for a festival is being creative with your outfit and makeup. Thereโ€™s no better way to embellish your everyday makeup than adding some rhinestones and glitter into the mix. Temporary flash tattoos are also a fun way to dress up your look and have fun with your friends as you prepare for the day.

8. A trendy hat

A cool hat is another one of those accessories thatโ€™s essential for its functionality and style. But donโ€™t get too wild with your headwear this season, thereโ€™s nothing worse than standing behind someone with an obnoxiously large lid blocking your view. Stick to fishing hats, baseball caps, and modest brimmed hats.

8 Wardrobe Must Haves for Festival Season

With these eight festival must-haves, youโ€™ll be ready to make this yearโ€™s lineup of festivals your most memorableโ€”and fashionableโ€”yet.
