Admittedly I’ve only attended a few music “festivals” in my life. Most were EDM heavy and revolved around teens early twenty somethings getting into their skimpiest get ups and thumping their bodies to the beat of the bass.

What I’ve found to be an afterthought throughout my festival experiences though, is the perfect outfit to keep you rocking all day without worries of overheating, sunburn or exhaustion. Now I know this may be an old fashioned notion, but if I am going to be outside enjoying my favorite artists while sweating my butt off, I want to look good doing it. Enter the easy guide to festival fashion that will allow you to accomplish a chic concert festival outing.

First must? Prints. It’s important that you choose prints that make you happy. These shorts from Oxford Lads (similar)  blend bold prints paired with subtle details and great fits that look as great. They allow any dude to look great and classic while showing off the rebellious side. Festival fashion is an expression of yourself.

Another necessity is light and bright colors, the sun is hot y’all and you need to stay cool. I love a white v neck tee to keep the breeze blowing and the dance party going. Pair these two things with a fun pair of shades (like these) and a fun pop of color from your comfy kicks and you’re set.

Happy festival season!
