FESTIVAL OUTFITS

With summer fast approaching, festivals will be soon to follow. With many held up and down the country- and even abroad- the question on everyone’s lips is, “what shall I wear?” With the cost of living hurting our purses, and the damaging effect of fast fashion on our environment, why not buy second hand? We have teamed up with Vinted to find the hottest festival outfits, at a fraction of the costs, all while helping the environment. Dresses are always a keen favourite at festivals; of their easy wear and chic look. Colourful dresses, with abstract patterns seem to be this year’s go to. With thousands of these dresses available on vinted from as little as three pounds, you can look the part without the expense. Co-ords are another keen favourite for festivals due to their unique style, and easy wear. Coords come in many different forms, shorts, skirts, and trousers. Shorts and skirts seem to be the most popular as they are not too hot and are easier when you need that loo break. Again, colourful and abstract patterns are just as popular with the co-ords as with dresses. They’re also great to pack for a camping festival, as the sections can be re-worn with another piece of clothing. Again, Vinted has a wide range of co-ordinates at affordable prices. Small tops, and bralettes are another fantastic festival favourite for many years and continues to be so. Bralettes are a good option for a festival because they allow you to remain cool, while looking the part. Small and easy to pack they are perfect for any camping festival.

How to sell your old clothes

Do you have old festival clothes that you will no longer wear?

List them on Vinted. Unlike any other selling site, Vinted allow you to keep all the money you have made. Not only can you sell clothes and accessories on Vinted, but shoes and much more. Sell old today, buy new tomorrow. Vinted allows sellers to send offers to you so ensure that you are prepared to accept.

Accessories

One of the most important parts of any festival is accessories! They can change any outfit to really shout festival. Sunglasses are always the perfect, and useful accessory to any festival outfit. I would suggest that spending a large amount on sunglasses is not the best idea; they are often lost, which is why vinted is the way to look for the perfect pair.

Another famous festival accessory is the ‘bum bag’, allowing both style and safety for your belongings. We all know the stress of carrying a bag, even on a regular night out, so the stress of this in a crowd is not required, or necessary because bum bags are the stylish accessory to the festival outfit. Hundreds of bags are available on vinted at a fraction of the original cost.

Dress up

Vinuted has a range of clothes for sale. Ellie bought her whole outfit from Vinted for dressing up for the Leeds famous otley run. The Otley run is such a popular part of student life in Leeds, but drinks can be expensive. So why not save on the outfit you choose to wear.
