Spot The Festival Virgin

Summer can throw up some vexing fashion dilemmas, can't it?  There's- how do I look thinner on the beach? (lay down most of time in my case); should I risk wearing open toes to work? (only if you don't mind some shitehawk standing on your toes in the tube/getting caught in the inevitable thunderstorm) and perhaps most irksome of all- what the hell shall I wear to a festival? Festival dressing seems to have fallen into the default mode of 'Shorts + Hunters + Kimomo + Flower Crown' in recent years. Not that I don't like that look- in fact- I love it (mostly on girls with better legs than me). But when the lovely Bryony over at F + F asked me to put a little festi look together I knew I didn't wanna go down that route. (However, if I were going down that route this kimono is pretty ledge, to be fair). What I wanted to do was a look that was a bit more me, a bit more monochromey, a bit more boyish, just a bit more......non-default. So I went for this jumpsuit. And I can fully confirm that it's priddy shamazeballs. Ok, I know. What kinda dumbass chooses a jumpsuit to go a-festivalling in? A dumbass festival virgin like me, that's who. But wait. There's method in my madness. You can roll this beaut down, layer a tee underneath it, and then when you're done pretending to enjoy standing in a field listening to a band who you only know one song by, you can take it back to Sanityville and dress it up with a heel. Hopefully, there's some logic there somewhere. The flatforms are also F + F too, and are incred value, realllly comfy and make shortys that much needed inch taller (Hi!). Lemmie know what you think :) xx
