Little Black Dress Festival Chic

Festival time is upon us once again! The true essence of any festival is baby wipe baths, drinking out of paper cups and raving to your favourite music.

We all know how unpredictable the weather can be, and would never set off for a festival without our wellies, but seeing as the LBD is one piece of clothing that you can get away with wearing anywhere, why not rock it at a festival?

 

Pixie Lott, who is renowned for being a festival-goer extraordinaire, is rocking her little, black, lace dress in this picture. The gold fabric, under the black lace lightens the look for a summer feel. This dress teamed with suspender tights and a pair of black wellies is chic, festival styling from Ms.Lott.

The beauty of the LBD at a festival is that you can create a number of looks from one base garment. Throw on a denim jacket or parka, dare to bare those legs (it is summertime you know!) and you have a completely new style.

Accessories are everything – whether you choose to go for a straw hat, daisy chain hairband or statement necklace, these touches can make an outfit rock-on or fall flat.

Don't forget that the right kind of handbag can make or break your festival fun – you don't want to be clinging on to a clutch in one hand and a paper cup in the other for the entire weekend, trust us!

If you're heading to a field full of tents and cider-quaffers, here's our suggestions for creating the festival look.

The little, black, lace number below nips in at the waist and flicks out, to give your legs room to move, so you're not restricted when you're getting your groove on. Pull on a pair of Hunter Wellington boots and you are festival-fashion ready.

If you've got it, flaunt it! You'll regret it in 20 years time when everything goes south so make use of what you've got now. This leather, bodycon, mini dress, with a visible back zip, is perfect for creating a fierce, festival look. Colourpop by adding a contrasting belt in a vibrant shade.
