trying to help pack
for festival weekend, but to be honest, i'm not much help, as i've packed what i need and all the food and tent etc, and the lady one is just faffing about picking clothes. i keep telling her they're only gonna get covered in mud, but she insists. Stereotype win.

There are only really two decent ways of dressing for a festival.
1. Practical stuff that won't get fucked. You'll probably look a bit like a hobo but at least you'll be comfy.
2. Fancy dress. Buy cheap and you'll have a great time rolling around in a muddy wedding dress feeling awesome but you'll probably be uncomfortable/cold.

exactly
we made a trip to the charity shops around and got some fun bits and pieces. i'm going mostly comfy, but do have ghostbusters overalls for the hell of it.

Ghostbusters overalls sound bloody perfect. Practical and fun!
I don't get all of this festival chic bollocks. Why dress like some sort of Jack Wills wannabe bohemian? It just makes you look like a twat.

Plus, who goes to festivals to look cool and pull? I imagine festival sex to be pretty minging... even if his retro tee looks great thrown over your hunter wellies in the corner of your tent.

yeah, it's a shame slipknot ruined the humble overall
for the heavy-metal festival goer. I'm thinking of moving in to dungarees, but am trying to find a way to not look like a man in fishing waders or a member of dexie's midnight runners
