Hooray, I'm super excited I'm going to Lovebox festival this weekend. I thought I'd compile a few lovely pieces for outfit inspiration for the day!

4 Festival Hair Styles
Before I go to a festival I love perusing the web to find some inspiration for festival hair-dos so that 3 days without a shower won't be a problem for my locks!

V Festival
We spent last weekend partying away in a field in Essex (sometimes in the rain) to Beyonce, Rudimental, Emeli Sande, Ellie Goulding, Tom Odell & Kings of Leon.
We had a fantastic time, drank too much Pimms, did lots of people watching from giant hammocks & heard some great music. This is our little visual diary of our V festival experience.
Mojitos in the Taxi to Chelmsford. The festival Tea Ladies.
Oxygen Lounge. Festival stacking rings.
Cooling off with some ice cold beer in the VIP lounge.
Chorizo & halloumi rolls & lounging in hammocks.
We took a whirl on the sky ride. At which point the sun disappeared & the temperature plummeted. So much so Izzy's lips turned blue.
We headed off to the Hummingbird Bakery van to warm up with hot chocolates.
Restored (& able to feel our toes) we went off to meet all the lovely people at the Very tent & got some amazing festival face paint.
Festival OOTDs.
As the night settled we cosied up in the hammocks before Beyonce.
The next morning we were so happy to wake up to sunshine & no more rain!
We kicked off the day with a couple of cappuccinos in the sun, sitting in candy striped deck chairs, listening to The Saturdays in the distance (pretty good start to a Sunday!).
Sunday morning was so relaxing, after breakfast we sat on top of the hill in front of the 4Music stage listening to Tom Odell's soulful music.
Suddenly starving we joined to queue at Jamie's Fabulous Feasts & picked up a couple of delicious cheese burgers that we demolished sitting cross-legged on the grass.
More OOTDs by the Very Tent.
Finally after an afternoon full of music, cocktails & Pimms we packed up our tent & headed back to London with the most gorgeous sunset lighting the sky up above us.
If you have blogged about any festivals this summer please leave the links below we'd love to see your festival experience!
A big thank you to Very who gave us the tickets & made this weekend possible.

Festival Fashion
As we slip into August the festival season is well & truly underway, however many stores are beginning to filter out summery styles in favour of the new A/W lines. With a couple of festivals still lined up for the two of us this summer before we even start thinking about cold crisp mornings & chunky knit jumpers we have a few more summer purchases on the horizon! These are our ultimate festival style picks that can currently be found in the shops.
Look 1. Rain or Shine
This denim playsuit with embellished shoulders is a great throw on item that makes for an effortless look & wont take up much room in your backpack. The utilitarian aspect looks great with a pair of classic wellies that will keep you safe from the rain & mud that most UK festivals are synonymous with. We paired it with a cool zebra print backpack to keep all your essentials in & a black porkpie hat that will be a lifesaver to disguise day 3 festival hair. Add a pair of sunglasses & pretty ring & you're good to go.
Look 2. Very Denim
We love this embellished denim shirt for slightly cooler festival days (currently a huge bargain in the sale). Paired with a pair of high waisted Levi cut offs & it makes a perfect double denim summer statement. Some tan ankle boots will break the darker colours up & be comfy enough to traipse around fields all day. The polarised aviators are everywhere this summer - they compliment the blues in the outfit perfectly. Finally this great fringed x body bag finishes off the laid back boho western look.
Look 3. Coralista
Probably the look that would be most suitable for a one day festival. This orange maxi dress & white fringe sandals look great together for a luxe hippy vibe. We offset the bold dress with a cool mint coloured x body which go really well together. A chic straw hat, delicate wrist bling & a boho scarf complete the look. Just be careful not to wear in the rain!
Many of these items are found in the festival capsule collection put together by Very, a great place to pick up some festival chic items, with the added bonus that much of it is currently on sale. Link!
Very is the official partner of V festival so anyone going there on the 17 & 18th August will be able to shop the capsule collection at the festival itself.
We are entering this post into a competition to win some V festival tickets so wish us luck!
