Festival Fever. . .

Before we know it, festival season will be upon us. There's nothing I love more than sitting on the grass listening to my favourite bands with friends. One of my highlights from last Summer was when I went to Hard Rock Calling in London's Hyde Park to see Pearl Jam. Sadly, I can't afford to go anywhere this Summer but here are some essentials I believe you shouldn't leave home without:

#1. Playsuit. Comfy and cool. Throw on a crochet waistcoat for a boho feel.
#2. Feather Earrings and Beaded Cuff. Just 'coz you're living in a tent doesn't mean you can't accessorize!
#3. Top. Great for Summer. Layer over vest tops when it gets chilly.
#4. Batiste Dry Shampoo. An absolute God-send! Spray and bush through second-day hair for a fresh lease of life.
#5. Dress. Wear with a pair of tights or Overknee socks (as below).
#6. Overknee Socks. Gotta keep those legs warm!
#7. Wellies. An absolute MUST if you live in Ireland or the UK. There's no doubt that campsite will be muddy!
#8. Sunnies. Incase we do get some sun. Or more realistically to hide those bleary eyes =)
#9. Headband. Just because it's cute!
#10. Shorts. A festival staple.
#11. Sunscreen. It may look cloudy, but you can still get burned easily. Also doubles up as a moisturizer.
#12. Hat. Keep the sun off your crown and hide that bad hair day!
#13. Satchel. Easy to carry and somewhere pretty to store your essentials when you're away from your tent.

Is anyone going to any festivals over the Summer months? I'm so jealous of anyone going to the one's here in Ireland! Here are some of the bigger festivals in Europe not to be missed:
