What to Wear with Wilson: Festival Fashion
May 18, 2015
SXSW, Warped Tour, Voodoo, Ultra, Coachella, EDC and every major music festival in between. It’s the greatest time of year – festival season. The sun is out, the music is loud, and the vibes are good. Festival season is upon us and there is no better time to get that effortless, carefree wardrobe that would look good for any occasion.
Fringe is all the rave this season: you’ll find tassels on jackets and purses and even on boots.
Playsuits, also known as rompers, are very in. They are highly versatile and comfortable. Ranging from floral prints, to stripes, to bold solids, the pattern scheme for playsuits are endless. They can be paired best with statement sandals or sneakers, which are basically just shoes with thicker platforms than usual.
Cotton babydoll dresses are a good fit for a music festival. They simple and comfortable. They look well with practically any type of shoe – sneakers, boots, sandals, anything! To liven up the outfit a little bit you could add a wide brimmed fedora.
Cuffing the bottom of your jeans are not just for the skater boys anymore.The pin roll, super skinny, under, half tuck – there are so many different ways to cuff your pants. This is the season’s hottest must-try look.
Do not be afraid to show a little bit of skin when you are rocking a halter crop top. Unlike your typical crop top, halter crop tops tend to have their straps go around the neck versus on the shoulders. These asymmetrical tops are hot because they expose more of the back and are cute in any color. They pair well with high waisted shorts, skater skirts, and even your favorite pair of jeans.
When it comes to men festival fashion, let’s be real here, a boy can throw on any spring/summer outfit and be ready to go to a festival. Don’t believe me? Let’s put some things into perspective…
Let me clear the air, and say that it is perfectly okay for men to wear Birkenstocks. Birks are cool and stylish unlike tacky flip flops – those should never be worn by the male population. Men and Birks basically go hand in hand, they go best with cuffed jeans, shorts, joggers, sweat shorts, and basically about any type of pants.
Not only would these trends look nice at a music festival, but they would look great for any spring or summer occasion. Until next time, stay cute, fashionable, and post concert depressed, Puma Nation.
