Sleeping In The Fields

I am off to V Festival early hours Friday morning, and I am nowhere near ready for this weekend! I don't even have wellies yet, and looking at the weather, it looks like I'm definitely going to need them.

Despite doing a whole Festival Guide on HerUni, I still have no clue what to take, whether I have everything ready, how much money I should take etc. etc. I want to keep warm (obviously!) but as a fashion blogger who likes to think she has some sort of style, I would like to look nice in the pictures I take.

So far, I have two pairs of shorts (one of which I'm not sure even fit me!), three tops I think I'm going to take (most likely), a raincoat (for obvious reasons) and that's it. I need to take basic make-up. I'm forgetting about foundation completely as of right now. Maybe I will just in case I have bags under my eyes or a spot sprouts out from nowhere. Who knows? I haven't even thought about jewellery or hair accessories. I think that I'm overthinking this whole thing. I'm making it sound like this is my suitcase for Spain rather than a weekend rolling around in fields in mud and jumping up and down to artists live. So excited by the way!

Here's a reminder of the fashion side of things I brought together for HerUni:

Surely all this will help me on the fashion side of things. I'm definitely going to take a straw hat too! I don't care how much it rains; I want to take one! It will keep onlookers from knowing the truth about my greasy hair on Sunday/Monday!

It's safe to say that I definitely need to go shopping tomorrow! I wish I had a car because it would be so much easier then!

Sorry for the excessive rant/worrying blog post. I'll probably just wing it, and it will all be fine!

Balls and Proms

Tomorrow is the Summer Ball for me and the rest of my fellow Roey's. It will be a long day full of drink, girly fun and mayhem, along with the help of a few celebrities:

Chase and Status

Eliza Doolittle

&

The Streets

Eliza Doolittle is only on for a measly half an hour due to her minimal song list containing the top ten number Pack Up.

However, Chase and Status and The Streets are on for an hour each so that is two and a half hours of celeb company for us students.

DJs of all different styles will be joining us too throughout the day, night and early morning hours... 13:00 - 4:30.

It will be hectic but I am glad of it because it's going to be one of the best days and nights of the year.

Cue the fairground, foodcourts, Silent Disco and Survivor's Photo at 4:45.

A bit of variety for everyone.

Now for the extra exciting (and annoying) part for the girls...

what to wear?

It is an all day event and that is the reason some people have taken the liberty of buying a day dress and a night dress... I wasn't that smart (and I have no suitable shoes to wear!)

Casual dresses are definitely a winner as who wants to be uncomfortable for the entire day?

Think bright colours (neon in my case), summer florals and the occasional sophisticated blacks and nudes.

H&M

My dress.

So there you have it, a mixture of inspirations for Summer 2011 ballwear that is not poofy and extra heavy for no reason.

Make a difference in what you wear to your ball.
