Festival Fashion
Music festival season is upon us! Whether it’s Coachella, Glastonbury or , I’ve found the hottest, bargain pieces to rock out in style.
Two stand-out new labels are an absolute must-buy for any hippie chick looking to shake a tail-feather in the mud. First up, Spirit Hoods make furry hats with scarf-slash-gloves attached, and each hood is designed like an animal. It begs clicking on the link because my description just cant do them justice! But my faves are Husky, Snow Leopard and Grizzly Bear. http://www.spirithoods.com. Then for the more daring, Tavik is a Californian company rocking out super ‘80’s swimwear in a sherbet rainbow of cool colours and patterns. Sort of Barbie meets Blondie. www.tavikswimwear.com
I’ve been stocking up on bright, super cheap Aztec-printed dresses from
Forever21 (www.forever21.com), I’m loving the ‘70’s studded olive and tan leather jackets from Sara Berman (http://www.saraberman.com ), and casual trousers and tops from cool new German label Closed (it’s a bit like J Crew, http://www.closed.com ). Head All Saints for the perfect pair of flat boots and faded denim shirts, and for simple, comfy tees, look to Alternative Apparel. Their cotton tops are so thin and soft I usually end up sleeping in them too. It’s almost got to the stage where I have to ban myself from their website because I’ll just click click click into the night ordering everything in sight. http://www.alternativeapparel.com
