What to pack for a rock festival?

A festival is great – music, parties, shows – but on condition of being well equipped (while remaining fashionable)!

An all-purpose bag

To escape the keys or the laptop that fall out of the pockets, the bag is essential. Thousands of objects are lost or stolen each year during the festival period. Do not take valuable items. The little extra:likewise, do not wear your most beautiful pieces. You're never safe from spilled beer or ripped t-shirts by a wild audience at the Francofolies.

The trend of this summer ? The backpack is still relevant, with its bohemian spirit and its somewhat teenage look.

The piece you need:the Pull &Bear fringed backpack, €39.99.

Shoes that stay on your feet

In the festivals, it is known, there are people. It may not be the time to lose your shoe, it is unlikely to find it afterwards. The little extra:wear closed shoes that do not confine the feet, so as not to have your pretty toes (which we varnished the day before) crushed by a delirious crowd. And of course avoid the heels to dance under the frenetic rhythms of the Eurokéennes.

The trend of this summer ? White sneakers, to wear with absolutely everything.

The piece you need:the Karling Mango sports shoes €49.99.

Hippie style sunglasses

Imagine yourself in front of the stage. Your absolute idol arrives, and there you are so dazzled by the sun that you cannot see her. Plan ahead, and bring your best (plastic) glasses. The little extra:take the cream that goes with it, so as not to ruin your day because of a sunburn. The headgear can also save you sunstroke under the Solidays sun.

The trend of this summer ? Glasses with very wide, round and sleek frames, which goes with the urban jungle look of this summer.

The piece you need:Asos round sunglasses, €17.99.

A lightweight t-shirt

To dance until the end of the night and not get too hot, the ideal is a light T-shirt that allows you to let go and engage in a choreography worthy of the pros (even in a compact crowd, yes yes ). The little extra:the rock t-shirt or with the name of your favorite band, to fit into the theme. Perfect to impress your friends at Rock en Seine.

The trend of this summer ? The cropped top, with high-waisted pants, skirts or shorts to balance the overall figure.

The piece you need:the Sweet Summertime Rad t-shirt, €25.90.

A nice rain outfit

Take out your most beautiful anoraks. Even if the festivals are not all in Brittany like the Vieilles Charrues, (it is well known, it often rains in Brittany…), rainwear is more than appreciated in case of heavy downpour. The little extra:rubber boots. This can save you from returning with soaked feet after wading through the mud for several hours.

The trend of this summer ? Khaki mountain trek-style parka.

The piece you need:the Cache-Cache parka, €55.99.

A casual sweater

The sweater is essential when the night comes its nose and you wait impatiently (and in the cold) for the group not to be missed. Choose a light sweater that fits easily in the bag, so you don't have to clutter up and take your whole suitcase to Main Square. The little extra:the rock shirt that you can then tie around the waist, and which doesn't bother you to wiggle your hips to your favorite songs.

The trend of this summer ? A little sweater with a summer skirt and bare legs.

The piece you need:the H&M cotton sweater, €19.99.

And don't forget, this summer it's the look of the 1970s, floral, bohemian, which is in the spotlight... What reminds us of Woodstock?
