Festival Fashion

A.K.A: I am not at Coachella, but need to be.

There are countless summer music festivals coming up this season.  Indie ones, pop ones, country ones, and everything in between.  It's the perfect opportunity for fun, easy Summer style.  Here's my ideal festival fashion.


Head to toe: Silk headscarf- Vintage
Silver pendant- Coordinates Pendant, Spiffing Jewelery
Long Necklace- Vintage
Dress- Target, talked about in this previous post
Fan- Vintage
Wedges- Target

Floral wedges.  Nail polish- OPI's Chicago Champagne Toast

Half crown braid.

Sunglasses- Similar at Urban
Rings- Vintage, similar here
Nail color- Essie Play Date


Makeup used:
Primers- Maybelline Baby Skin, Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion
Foundation- Clinique Even Better Foundation, Ivory
Concealer- Maybelline Fit Me, Fair
Powder- MAC Studio Fix, NC20
Bronzer & Blush- elf Bronzer and Blush Duo, St. Lucia
Highlight- Benefit High Beam
Brows- Anastasia Brow Genius Kit, Medium Brown
Eyeliner- Smashbox Limitless Eyeliner, Onyx
Eyeshadow- Urban Decay Naked3 Palette
Mascara- Benefit's They're Real!
Lipstick- Clinique Chubby Stick, Woppin' Watermelon

A great highlight and contour, when well blended, will give your skin that gorgeous dewy summer glow!  I love using a light shimmery bronzer and cream highlight in the summer to give my skin that extra oomph.

Don't forget!  When going to an outdoor music festival, bringing flats and sunscreen are a MUST!  Don't risk getting blisters or sunburn.  It'll completely ruin your weekend.  (Trust me, I've been there.  Not a good memory.)

But most importantly, take good care of your skin and your feet, and everything in between really, and have the best time!

Until then,

xxoo,
Alexis
