Festival Fever – No Thanks!
When it comes to festivals, it is safe to say I am now firmly on the side of 6 out of 10 magazine and their stance in the article ´Why festivals aren´t for me´. Now, I am the first to admit that Kate Moss and her crew of super cool friends still look amazing glamping in their Winnebago´s, complete with their own toilet and home comforts.

Coachella – full of celebrity style
Coachella always offers the best of festival style. Celebrities turn out in their droves to the Californian festival where the sun (nearly) always shines. This year has been no exception, with Emma Roberts, Kate Bosworth, Emma Watson, Poppy Delavigne and Tali Lennox amongst the celebs soaking up the likes of Noel Gallagher and the High Flying Birds and Arctic Monkeys. Here are some of the best festival looks on display, and they don’t include a strangely dressed Katy Perry, or the hippy travesty that was Paris Hilton. Diane Kruger always makes festival dressing seem so easy. A simple shirt dressed teamed with classic desert boots and a tan leather cross…
