Festival wear

Who says you can't be suave in the rain?

Typical British weather ey? It has been raining non stop these past few weeks... so how to overcome this and still look fierce during festival season? 

• Wellington boots - This goes without saying, they are perfect for miserable festival weather, they keep your feet dry and you can get as muddy as you like. 

My favourites have to be Hunter wellies! I personally think that they are one of the best brands out there, not only are they great quality but they also come in an assortment of colours and patterns. They sell them in most stores but you can also just go straight to their on-line store (Hunter-boot.com) 

These particular styles caught my eye... 

Hunter original Brit £104- allsole.com

Hunter regent Montpelier brown leopard  £195- Coggles.com 

Hunter original high gloss rubber £85- John Lewis 

Although Hunter wellies are quite pricey they are absolutely worth every penny! However you can purchase alternatives which are just as fabulous... 

Dandy riding wellies £32 - Topshop

Scholl foldover luxe wellies was £85 but now £20 - flannelsfashion.com (currently on sale so hurry!)

Star buy: Vivienne Westwood studded booties (I loved these when they first came out and I would still rock them now) - £63 ASOS 

Low on stock as it is in the sale but alternatively have a look on Ebay but just be careful that you're buying genuine merchandise and at a reasonable price :)

• A nice warm beanie! 

I first saw this  XXX limited edition beanie in the Rita Ora R.I.P video, and then I later stumbled across it again this time worn by an individual at the wireless festival and it looked even more fabulous close up! It has been difficult to track this down but I finally found it...The XXX limited edition beanie can be found here >>> http://rapraprap.bigcartel.com/

And last but not least.... 

• A  lightweight Jacket 

If anyone told you that raincoats weren't cool, think again! Spotted on the S/S 2012 Mulberry Catwalk were raincoats which looked rather stylish and wearable.

I found some nice ones in Topshop and on ASOS but I am still searching for the perfect mac (If anyone has any suggestions holla atcha gurrl!) 

The last jacket that I've  been seeing around quite a lot are the Camo Jackets and I love them. Before these became popular I had a friend who had bought an old army jacket and had customised it with flags, and band badges and I thought it looked pretty cool. Here's a picture taken last year of me wearing it (It was taken on webcam so its not very clear sorry).

Since these jackets are fast becoming popular, why not make it more unique by customising it with studs, different bits of fabric or whatever you like! Here are some Camo Jackets you can buy and customise yourself! 

Camo army Jacket £48- topshop.com (If you're not great with customising Topshop also do a studded one)

Vintage surplus Camo F2 army jacket £48 - Urban Outfitters

I hope this  has been useful, I'm open to any suggestions!
