Electrifying music, thriving fashion trends, vigorous young crowds, and a destination filled with amusement. What am I talking about? Why, Summer music festivals, of course!

It’s that time of the year again and, as always, you can’t have music festivals without the fashion trends that accompany them. In 2017, we’re seeing that these summer festival fashion trends are a true reflection of the crowd’s attitude - bold, carefree, lively, and adventurous. And if we were to talk about the one fashion rule that must be followed, it’s pretty simple, there is no rule.

Wear whatever you want, just make sure to rank high in this year’s trend index! This can be shorts, skirts, and in case you want to flaunt your bikini body (and all those long hours you spent at the gym instead of relaxing with Netflix and a nice tub of ice cream), pair them with a nice bikini top. Just keep in mind that whatever you wear should be comfortable enough for long walks or hours spent dancing tirelessly to your favorite music!

Sounds nice, right? Well, yes, yes it does, but let’s be real for a second. While summer music festivals are wonderful, they aren’t all peaches and cream. Why? Because to your cute footwear’s dismay, going to one can leave you spattered with mud. Something you can do to counter the dirt is to wear ankle-length boots that will save your feet while adding a super cool touch to any look paired with short dresses, hot pants or skirts.

Let’s not forget those who don’t mind adding a muddy layer around their feet to complete their look, though. If you’re one of these or one of the ones attending dirt-free venues, feel free to put your feet in some trendy casual footwear that isn’t limited by length. Example, OTBT is a fashion footwear Brand that recently launched a of shoes that can boost any attire. However, if you’re like me and would prefer to stay protected, an option is to wear the following OTBT shoes:

Wrapping Up

Don’t forget that the perfect look requires perfect accessories. And with “Burning Man” just round the corner, festival goers know that this entails a combination of both hot and cold weather; scalding during the day and chilly at night. To look flawless and on point with BOTH temperature extremes, make sure to carry accessories for every occasion:

All of these styles will make you look chic, so the only things left are a smile and the confidence to get going!
