Wondering why you’ve never seen yourself in the post-event clip of a festival or why the fan cams never come your way? It’s probably because you showed up looking basic AF.
Let’s help you change that before the next festival you attend.

Nothing screams “I’m a cool kid” louder than oversized fits among young people. Depending on the alté aesthetic you’re going for, you either wear oversized tees, jeans or both.
Shorts and mini-skirts

If you’re trying to absolutely kill the party, you need to be prepared to show some skin. As a bro, pull out em ashawo shorts and put your toned legs on display. Hot girlies, make Ayra Starr jealous at the sight of your mini-skirt.

You can’t go wrong with either of these three when thinking of the perfect head covering. You can also be extra and do a combination of two.
Mini dress

You might think it’s low effort, but the truth is, you can hardly miss your way with a mini dress. They come in all shapes and sizes, and you can thot it up however you want.
Rings and accessories

Doesn’t have to be original gold or diamond; just make sure you’ve got your bling on. From knuckle rings to bracelets, chains, earrings and multi-layered necklaces, accessories add an edge to your outfit.
Glasses

There are so many dramatic ones these days, so you can go all out if you want. Could be small or wide frames, black or coloured, round or rectangular.

Apart from being handy, tote bags can be the statement piece that’ll have everyone looking your way. The key is to choose one with cheeky texts or dramatic art.
