Carrie asks :

Im going to an outdoor concert this weekend, and in a dilemma, what do you wear with out looking over the top but not looking like you have just rolled out of bed, also our unpredictable weather doesnt help when trying to choose an outfit!

Light layers!

If you have a style you love, floral, retro inspired, safari then stick to it. It's what you feel comfortable in which is half the battle in feeling and looking great.

Boots of some description either wellies or riding would work well for the look but also weather and then a loose weave cardigan, preferably quite a large one to wrap around yourself.

Denim shorts are also a festival favourite but mix it up a little with some colours and different patterns or materials. Rather than sticking to blue denim find some turquoise or pink to clash some colour with them.

A strong coloured blouse would be perfect. Put a vest top under to undo if its warm, or button up and the long sleeves will act as protection from rain or wind if necessary.

A trendy trench coat would never go a miss either!
