How is it that some girls look fabulous throughout the mayhem of festival season? Flawless in a field is not an easy look to perfect, so we caught up with our pals, the creative talent behind iconic women’s leather jackets and accessories website I Love 2 Love www.il2l.com, for their failsafe style tips on working a glamorous festival look.
Get the basics right
Let’s cover the boring stuff first. You won’t feel glam if your feet are soaking and your hair is hanging in rats’ tails. So don’t forget your wellies and a hat to cover up with. This doesn’t have to mean a death knell to fashion though – get your hands on some lovely Hunter style Wellington boots and pack a couple of hats to co-ordinate with the rest of your outfit. Oh, and don’t forget to pack your suncream – burned bits are never attractive.
Keep it simple
The basis of your festival look should be simple, wearable shapes and colours – your unique style can be added with hot accessories. Shorts are everywhere this season, and teaming these with your big boots means classic festival chic, a la legendary Kate Moss.
Layer up
Add interest to your outfit, with layers of silky knit jumpers or cardies with extra long arms. Top with a scrumptious leather jacket, that’s a bit rock chick and a bit hippie biker girl. We love this IL2L asymmetric biker jacket, which is funky but wearable. Freshen up the perennially popular boho vibe with a gorgeous scarf like this V. Fraas crinkle look piece, which is the easy way to carefree style. Or experiment with wearing it as a bandana for an ‘I live for festivals’ look.
Relaxed, statement bags
Tote your bits and pieces around in an unstructured, casual bag. Kipling has a great range of summer lovin’ looks that are as stylish as they are practical. I Love 2 Love has handpicked the very best of the Kipling collection and this cross-body white fabric bag is bang on trend with its sporty look and will have you soaring in the festival style stakes.
