It’s hard to stand out in a crowd, especially in an event filled with fashionable individuals. But don’t worry’ with the right accessories, you can get everyone’s attention. Accessories such as hats, headdresses, or bags with playful prints or designs will have anyone do a double take. For example, this transparent iridescent backpack from Fudgerock is different from the typical bags because of its unique colors. Experiment with different hats as well and not just stick to the usual baseball caps and snapbacks. You can also try beanies, bucket hats, fedora, and trilby. Other pieces you can try are statement accessories like oversized layered necklaces and dangling earrings.

It might be tempting to wear sky high heels or wedges to music festivals, but it can be quite uncomfortable as the day goes by since you’ll be standing most of the time. When attending music festivals, opt for footwear that your feet can feel comfortable in for the rest of the day. You don’t have to sacrifice style when you choose comfort; there are pieces of footwear out there that can do both. Celine’s line of sandals is an example of style and comfort coexisting.

Suggested item: Artist tee

Where to buy: Fudge Rock

Price: PhP350

If you’re coming to the festival to support one of the acts, show your love by wearing their merch or band shirts. Band shirts do not have to be worn with just the usual denim jeans. Pair your favorite band shirt with a leather skirt or shorts for a rocker chick vibe. If you’re feeling girly, pair it with a pastel or plaid skirt as shown in the picture above. Accessorizing is also key depending on your vibe. For rocker chicks, include some cuffs and fishnet stockings in your look. For a feminine style, some pretty earrings and hair accessories will complement the style better.

Suggested item: Fringed lace kimono

Where to buy: Forme Clothing

Price: PhP998

What makes an outfit impressive is not just the overall style but also the details. An outfit’s fabric or texture can add extra charm to the look. For music festivals, clothes with lace details are popular for both laidback and boho style. Fringe is also a great option, and it can be incorporated through the accessories or clothes. For example, add extra flair to a pair of basic shirt and denim shorts by putting on a lace kimono over it. If you want to include both lace and fringe in your outfit, you will hit two birds with one stone with the fringed lace kimono from Forme.

Suggested item: Glitter brillants

Where to buy: NYX

Price: $6.50 or estimated around PhP340

Who says glitters are for just arts and crafts? In music festivals, glitters are a staple. Depending on your preferred style, you can adorn your face and body with swatches of glitter for that much-needed shimmer. You can even use it on your hair for glitter roots or on your face as part of your makeup. However, make sure you get cosmetic glitters, not the ones you can find in craft stores. The application can be tricky, so you’ll be needing glitter primer to keep the glitters in place.

Suggested item: Temporary tattoos

Where to buy: Tattumundo

Price: PhP250 to PhP300

Why not take things up a notch and get a tattoo? Don’t worry; we’re not talking about the permanent ones. Temporary tattoos are a great addition to your accessories, and what’s better is that you can choose designs that speak to your personality. Tattumundo’s collection of tattoo designs from local artists range from whimsical floral designs to serpents and flamingos. The best thing about these? You can put them anywhere without having to worry about commitment!
