Pom Poms & Fanny Packs

So it’s that time of year again, the festivals are approaching and the shops are full of festival fashion! I thought I would show you some of my favourite picks for this summer!

I am in love with Aztec prints, Pom Poms & Fanny Packs (yeah you heard it…they are back!) . Who doesn’t love a good fanny pack, they are so versatile and you can keep your valuables close by and free up your hands for a nice cool pint of cider…which I will definitely be doing at Glasto this year! 

So just over a month until I go to my 3rd Glastonbury, I have learned how to compromise with fashion, comfort and versatility. As much as its a chance to show your style and look cool and effortless, it’s a huge festival and you can be wading about in 5 seasons within 1 day so it’s important to have accessories that are actually useful…cue my love of a bum bag, I love the DaKine one featured below which I took on my holibobs and I found it really useful, and stylish!
Comfortable footwear is also a must!!! It doesn’t hurt however to be stylish at the same time with these Birkenstock Copper Floricda sandals pictured below! 
If you do tend to go for comfort over style though, you can add a bit of flare with and Aztec or tropical print accessory, some statement jewellery or popping sunglasses!

What’s your festival must have this year?!

Barry M Daylight Curing Nail Polish

I thought I would give Barry M’s new addition to their already fab range of polish! They released a sunlight curing polish to give you a uv finish without the uv lights. I was excited to give this a go because my nails are paper thin, and any time I wear polish it flakes off within an hour of application!

I must say I love this polish! 5 minutes after I applied it they were put to the test as I had to cook dinner and do some serious cleaning. I can confidently say that day 4 of wearing this I can’t see a chip at all! I am so pleased with the result. You don’t need a base coat and it dries fairly quick (I would suggest buffing your nails and using a 3rd coat if necessary) if you are like me and don’t have the patience to sit and wait on drying time then this if perfect! I cannot wait to see more colours from this range!


 

Barry M is available in Superdrug! They currently have a cheeky buy one get one half price offer at the moment! http://www.superdrug.com/brandshop/barryM/nails
