If there is one thing I love more than food, it’s live music. I can’t ever seem to get enough, which would explain why I found myself in a club Monday night that is clearly more fit for ripe 20 year olds (who like knives and things) and not soon to be 30 year olds but whatever. Concert season is about to kick off in full effect and as I prepare to head to my favorite music festival, CMA Fest in Nashville this June, I thought it would be a good idea to share my music festival must-haves for this Summer.
Lets get this party started —
1. Outfits fit to sing and dance in..all day long.
Because country is my music of choice, this tee was a no brainer. Well that and because cowboys. Frayed denim are always my go-to because if there is one thing my legs don’t like being is hot and sweaty. Because they are all like “LET ME BREATHE WOMAN” I let them do just that. Choose your outfits wisely — comfort and IG worthy should always be your two priorities when deciding 😉
2. Cheapo plastic sunglasses
Two things are to be sure when at a music festival – you will get sun and you will get sweaty. Don’t be that stinky burnt girl that everybody laughs at (you know exactly what I’m talking about). Make sure to lather on the sunscreen and throw your favorite deodorant in your bag that you can re-apply and re-apply and re-apply. You get the picture.
5. Comfy shoes
Look, I get that heels make your legs look sexy, but in the wrong setting they also can make you look stupid. Break out the tried and true favorites of yours that you know you can handle standing and dancing in for hours on end. Flats are wear its at. Just sayin’.
6. Disinfectant wipes
Maybe I’m the only germ-a-phobe around these parts, but guess what folks? Music festivals aren’t necessarily the cleanest of sorts. Have you ever gone to the bathroom in one of those pieces of plastic with four walls? Then you know exactly what I’m talking about. Throw some of these babies in your purse and you should be all set. Bathroom trips, spilled beverages, BBQ all over your hands, these will have ya covered.
And that concludes today’s music festival must-haves. What would be on your list?
