Y2K Obsessed
Why not channel the #1 trend that has subsequently been taking over the runway, the streets, and beyond. Y2K style is fun, youthful, and bold look making it an ideal option when putting together festival outfits. Anything that screams early 2000s will honestly be a hit on the dance floor. Anything from baby doll tees to micro mini-skirts to flared pants are a go – in fact, music festivals are when you can really go all out so feel free to pile on the most trendy pieces into one look. I recommend topping off your Y2K-inspired look with some platform shoes that are comfortable enough to be worn for hours on end. The extra height will help to ensure you can see over the crowds!

Bold Colors
Speaking of bright and bold, one way to make a statement amongst other festival outfits is by sporting something deeply saturated. As I mentioned on the blog before, bright colors are another big push this year. Shades such as primary blue, Bottega green, and orange will be incredibly photogenic at any outdoor venue. The great thing about going after the bold colors trend is that it can easily adapt to anyone’s style preferences. Saturated hues tend to look amazing in so many different silhouettes. To show you what I mean, I linked some fun, bold colored pieces below that would be killer for any upcoming music festival.

Cowgirl
Giddy up! Last year, we saw the resurgence of cowgirl boots but styled with more sleek, contemporary outfits. In honor of music festival season, I am predicting this will be a popular footwear choice. As a kitschy play on the trend, style your cowgirl boots with a cropped tank and some cut-off shorts. Or channel the trend in a more literal sense with denim-on-denim and a wide-brimmed hat. But keep the accessories sleek and polished to maintain that effortless, cool girl aesthetic.

Crochet All Day
If you are heading to an outdoor concert venue and you already know the temperatures are going to sky rocket, something breathable will be the most optimal. Enter this next trend that is 100% worth tapping into as an option for your festival outfits – crochet! Obviously this is a very light, breezy fabrication, making it ideal for day-long concerts in the scorching heat. Crochet has a natural boho vibe but you can easily add a touch of modernity by adding more contemporary accessories such as a cute leather belt bag and oversized sunglasses. When shopping for crochet pieces to complete your festival outfits, don’t skip on the swimwear section! There are so many cute crochet cover ups that can double up as festival wear.

Printed Maximalist
For those who are just attending a pre-festival part or maybe looking for something more sophisticated to wear to an outdoor festival, while still fitting in with the carefree vibe, I am always one to suggest a printed maxi dress. Long dresses are great because they are equal parts comfortable and stylish. Anything from floral to paisley will work. Not getting down and dirty in the fields? Then style your maxi with a cute pair of strappy heels to elevate the look. However if you will are traipsing through the different stages, it may be best to swap for something more comfortable! Flatforms are a really great alternative to pair with your printed maxi dress.
