Recently, as you should probably know, I went to Splendour in the Grass. And it was AWESOME. Seriously, if you're ever in Australia around my birthday (end of July) shoot me a phone call and let's spend way to much money and go to Splendour in the Grass. Yeah? Yeah. The one thing that stressed me out before I went was wtf do I pack? The boyfriend and I ended up bringing an entire suitcase full of stuff between the two of us (but in our defense we went to Ballina and Byron Bay first and then headed to Gold Coast), but I thought I'd show you all of the clothes I needed to bring!
This was my go-to night time outfit, it's "winter" in Australia, and it does get a little too chilly for shorts at night! Leggings, whatever shirt I was wearing during the day, and a cozy oversized flannel shirt was the right amount of warmth and comfort, yet I thought I still looked pretty cool! Long socks are super important, and so are gum boots (rain boots, wellies, etc) for all of the mud!
Day One: This is like my awesome pirate hooker outfit. I'm not entirely sure why I called it a pirate hooker outfit, just go with it. Singlet, booty shorts, bandanna, sunnies, gum boots, perfect. Shorts are perfect for peeing in porta potties. Gross, I know, but you don't want anything that dangles into the urine soaked floor. Yup. Moving on.
Day Two: Okay, so this one is like my... white rapper roadie outfit. The top is from Billabong (buy it, seriously) it's super lightweight with longsleeves (perfect for the sunburn miss pirate hooker probably got) but the trapeze style shirt makes it easy to breathe! Borrow the boyfriend's mesh snapback, booyah Ashton, they're back, and a nice dark pair of sunnies to hide those hungover eyes and again, long socks and gum boots. Mud, mess, repeat.
Day Three: My hippie chick "Spendour, like, totally changed my life man" outfit. That was way less fun that pirate hooker. I really need to stop saying pirate hooker. That sweater is adorable and super fuzzy (but not in a fleece way) on the inside and although the sleeves are fit for a small child, they look cute pulled up. The shorts are a new fave of mine, scallops = love. End of story. That flower headband is actually a Splendour in the Grass purchase, it's super cute! And again, wellies. Yep.
These bad boys are AWESOME, I bought them from Target for $17 (I know, right) because someone told me that there might be mud at Splendour in the Grass. Ha. Some mud. But seriously, don't go to an overnight festival without some rain boots, just leave them in the car if you don't wear them but bring them. It's worth it.
Do you have any other suggestions of what clothes to pack for a festival?
