Festival season is a great time to experiment with new hairstyles, but some festivals (especially camping festivals) can leave your hair in rough shape. Braid hair extensions are the ultimate way to slay with style and flair. Whether you're a braid newbie or a seasoned pro, this guide will walk you through the steps to achieve flawless braided extensions.

Lunita x iHR Ultraviolet Pastel Hair Extensions

Step 1: Prep Your Hair

Before we get started, it's crucial to prep your hair properly. Here’s how:

Comb: Start by gently combing out any tangles. Use a wide-tooth comb to avoid breakage.

Wash: Clean hair is a must! Use a sulfate-free shampoo to keep your hair healthy and shiny.

Moisturize: Hydration is key. Apply a leave-in conditioner or your favorite hair moisturizer to keep your strands soft and manageable.

Dry: Let your hair air dry or use a blow dryer on a cool setting. Your hair needs to be completely dry before you start braiding.

Lunautics Ghost Me Glow Hair Extensions

Step 2: Part Your Hair

Decide where you want your part to sit. Use a rat-tail comb for a clean, precise part. Whether you prefer a middle part, side part, or zigzag, make sure it's neat and even.

Step 3: Separate Braiding Hair Sections

Grab your braiding hair extensions and separate them into 7-8 equal sections per braid. This will ensure you have enough hair to work with and keep your braids looking uniform.

Step 4: Braid the First Section

Time to start braiding!

1. Start at the Root: Take a small section of your natural hair and divide it into three equal parts. Position your braiding hair extension over your natural hair section, aligning it with the middle piece.

2. Begin Braiding: Start a regular three-strand braid, integrating the extension hair with your natural hair.

3. Tight and Secure: Keep the braid tight and secure, but not too tight to avoid pulling on your scalp.

Step 5: Add Sections Every Half Inch

As you braid down, add a small section of braiding hair every half inch. This method ensures that the braid stays thick and consistent from root to tip. Continue this process until you reach the desired length.

Step 6: Finish the Braid with an Elastic

Once you’ve braided down to the end, secure it with a small elastic.

Okay, so picture this: you're at a rave, the bass is thumping, the crowd is buzzing, and suddenly, the UV lights hit. BOOM! Your outfit lights up like a cosmic dream. UV clothes are designed to react to ultraviolet light, making you the center of attention. It’s like wearing magic! 🪄

Rolita Couture x iHR Mystery Planet Fusion Outfit

Top UV Clothing Trends

1. Neon Mesh Tops

Mesh tops are super versatile and when they’re neon, they glow like crazy under UV lights. Pair them with a cute bralette or pasties for that perfect rave look. You can even layer them over a crop top for extra flair.

2. Glow-in-the-Dark Body Paint and Glitter

Not exactly clothes, but hear me out! UV body paint and glitter is the ultimate accessory. Paint on some cute designs or go wild with intricate patterns. Your body becomes the canvas, and the rave becomes your art gallery. 🎨

3. Reflective Pants

These pants not only look cool but also shine bright under UV lights. Go for those with fun patterns or holographic finishes. They’re comfy, stylish, and make your moves look extra lit. Plus, pockets for all your essentials – win-win!

4. LED Accessories

From shoelaces to gloves, adding a bit of LED to your UV outfit can take your rave look to the next level. LED accessories glow in the dark and sync perfectly with the UV vibe. Imagine twirling with LED gloves – pure magic!

Tripp Out UV-Reactive O-Ring Top

5. Glowing Hair Clips and Headbands

Don't forget your hair! UV-reactive hair clips and headbands are the perfect final touch. Whether you're rocking space buns or a sleek ponytail, these accessories add that extra pop to your look.

How to Style Your UV Outfit

  1. Mix and Match Neon Colors: The brighter, the better. Neon greens, pinks, and yellows all glow fantastically under UV light.
  2. Layer Up: Combine different textures like mesh and reflective materials to add depth to your outfit.
  3. Accessorize: Think beyond clothes – glow sticks, LED jewelry, and UV makeup can make your look unforgettable.
  4. Comfort is Key: Raves can last for hours, so make sure your outfit is not just stylish but also comfortable.

Feral girl summer is in full swing. Raving is more than just a hobby, it's a practice—and going feral is just part of that. But with any practice there are some rules. Want to have the feral girl summer that you deserve? Here is your bible: 

Leave bad vibes at home

That guy who won't text you back? That friend who hurt you? Your boss? Stop thinking about them. Cut off that person you're in the situationship with and buy some flights and festival tickets. Any feral girl knows to check her bad vibes at the door for the weekend and enjoy herself. Your purse is too small to carry all of that baggage anyway. 

Hot Girls Listen To Techno Outfit

Stay hydrated

I get it, the energy is electric and you’re ready to rage, but don’t forget to take care of your body. Stay hydrated, babes! Keep a water bottle on you and take sips between sets. Trust me, your future self will thank you. Being hydrated keeps you in the game longer. Vodka sodas kind of count though. Get creative with it. 

iHR x Rolita Couture Mystery Planet Fusion Outfit

Dance on any elevated surface

The stage, a table, a truck bed, the roof? There's just something about being elevated above the crowd that feels so much more unhinged, but in a good way. Feral girls cannot be contained to just the dance floor. 

Liya Kitten x iHR Kandi Land Bow Outfit

Hit the afters 

Afters are a way of life. In most cities, the afters are where you're going to find some of the best music and some of the most unique venues. We're not talking about doing afters in someone's apartment—we're talking about those warehouse parties that go all night long and don't stop. 

Bass On My Mind Outfit

Ride the rail

Raving is just better up there. Get a hydration pack and prepare to rage the night away at the rail. If you want to feel the music deep into your soul, the rail is just where you have to be. I've seen lives change on the rail. The rail is a way of life. 

Nostalgia Fringe Bikini Outfit

Get three olives 

It's time to get into hot girl drinks, and trust me when I say that a dirty martini with precisely three olives is the ultimate hot girl drink. Why three olives? I don't know, but when you get it that way, you'll get it. Feral girl tip: find hydration and electrolyte balance with 1 dirty martini to 3 vodka sodas. 

Sunflowerraver x iHR I'm Sensitive Bodysuit Outfit

Go on a solo adventure

Sure it's "important" to stay with your rave fam, but going on a solo adventure is food for the soul. Feed your inner feral rat girl by spending some time solo at the rave. Dance with new people, make some new friends, and explore the venue to soak it all in. 

SLANDER x iHR Electric Edge Reflective Outfit

Bring nail glue

I measure a good night out by how many nails I lose. I wear press-on nails and I can guarantee that I'll lose at least one on a good night, and up to four on a great night. I pack nail glue in my purse to reapply if I manage to find one. If the nail is meant to come back to you, it will. Plus there is no bigger serve than giving yourself a manicure on the dance floor. 

Dance To The Riddim Skull Outfit

Wear two outfits

One outfit is to take photos in, another is to rage in. You know how sometimes you want to style the perfect rave fit but you know that it won't be comfortable to rage in? We've all been there. Pack a t-shirt in a bag and put it in a locker so you can rage without worrying about your look, and put all of your accessories in the locker after you change to outfit 2.

Miss Lana Del Rey knew what she what she was doing when she released Summertime Sadness. Cancer season is all about being in ur feels during the long days of summertime. Festival season is in full-swing, but some of the best festivals of the year have already passed. Not to worry though babes because we still have a lot to look forward to.

Happy birthday to my Cancer babes. These days are ur time to shine and u know that the middle of summer is the best time of year to have a birthday. Cancer season is the best time of year to make new besties and find connection with a new rave fam. If ur into shuffling or flow arts, this is a great time to reach out and connect with ur local community to find connection over a shared hobby. Cancer is the classic water sign, and has a connection to the moon which makes these placements just like the ocean: deep and moody but entrancing to be around.

Here are my top picks for u, Cancer placements. If u don't have this water sign in ur big 3, though, don't worry. I'll be posting a new guide each month so keep an eye out for next month when I go over you rave babes with Leo in ur sun, moon, and rising.

Cancer Sun

Out of all of the rave astrology guides I've written, Cancer sun is probably the easiest to describe. U are the rave mom of ur group. Ur loving and thoughtful, and u want everyone to have a good time. U probably take the extra time while getting ready to think of the little things to add to ur hydro pack, like sealed chap stick and SPF for all ur little rave babies who always forget these things.

But don't let ppl get confused, u still love to have a good time. U love music that u can connect to on a deeper level and u feel connected to something bigger when ur vibing out on the dance floor. Here are my top picks for u, Cancer suns:

Liya Kitten x iHR Kandi Land Bow Outfit

Secret Pathways Floral Outfit

Silver Moon's Sparkling Outfit

 

Cancer Moon

As a Cancer moon u can probably be found crying at the trance show or just feeling all of the feels when u go to a festival with ur friends. Cancer moons are very intuitive and emotional, but that doesn't mean moody. U might not show ur emotions on ur sleeve but u definitely feel them deeply.

U can be very shy and have been known to hide away, but when u do connect with someone u feel a very powerful connection to them. Here are my top picks for u, Cancer moon.

Acid Storm Outfit

Heaven's Forever Floral Marabou Outfit

Happy Days Marabou Outfit

 

Cancer Rising

Ur the backbone of ur rave fam, Cancer rising. U have a natural ability to connect with people on a deeper level, but u use that talent to form genuine connections and not to be a manipulator. This is what makes u magnetic, but it can sometimes leave u feeling like ur the therapist of ur group.

Take care of urself, babe. Don't be afraid to close ur eyes and lose it all on the dance floor. Here are my top picks for u, Cancer moon:

Viper Vision Harem Pants

Rolita Couture x iHR Mystery Planet Hood

I truly believe the greatest tool to spice up any rave look is glitter. Festival season is here and we are totally into the sparkle! There’s a lot of different ways to rock this trend, but I’m going to share my favorite ones with you in case you are looking for some inspiration. 

Nowadays there are plenty of brands that offer options for everyone. When you're about to choose the perfect glitter, make sure this one is safe for you and for the environment. Once I spotlight this… Welcome to the glitter world!  

Starlight Sprinkle Sequin Outfit

Chunky glitter 

As I already said, when we get into the glitter trend, there is freedom of choices, but one of the most popular is the chunky glitter. This type of shimmer is thicker than the normal, adding a powerful shine on every look. It’s common for them to add cute shapes to it: Hearts, stars or just a couple of flakes to add texture and make it strong. 

I would recommend using this type of glitter specially on the hair. You can put it directly to the roots to upgrade any hairstyle; space buns, pigtails and braids are good options, but it will also look fantastic with loose hair! Chunky glitter is perfect to highlight. Another option is to add it to specific parts of your body. What about your cheekbones or collar bones? Take the risk, it looks beautiful. 

In most cases, this kind of product comes ready to use, but if not… My favorite trick is to mix it with clear hair gel and apply it with a brush. It’s completely safe and once it dries, it’s timeless approved for the rave. Btw, you can use this tip everytime glitter doesn’t have a way to stick. 

Lunautics Zenon UV Reactive Glitter

Eyes and lips 

The fierce combo! One of my favorite things about glitter is that it’s easy to use. I’m really bad at makeup, but adding it to my natural look changes literally everything and makes me look like a pro. You can wear the twinkle applying it directly to your eyelid or tear duct, try with funny colors as neons to enhance the look and to add depth. Same story with the lips, either if you prefer full glittery or just a thin coat on some colorful base, matching the shine of eyes and lips is a good way to improve the whole style. 

iHeart Lunautics Supernova Glitter

Body glitter

Let’s get covered in fairy dust! A shimmery skin looks gorgeous, give your body a special glow using glitter. This is the best way to complement your rave outfit, standing out for the parts that are not covered with clothes. Your shoulders, chest, arms and legs are good to go, but in case you want to give a sexy taste, you can also apply it on your booty. 

Rave glitter was made for cosmetic use, so in case you are too worried about the removal… It’s just as easy as regular makeup. Use your creativity and dare to try! Festivals are a  safe place to express yourself.

One of the most important things to us at savormeditation is bringing rave culture to life in our clothes. To do that, we launch collaborations with ravers in the scene who not only embody PLUR in their everyday lives, but bring part of that rave culture to life in new ways. Liya Kitten is great example of that.

With her handmade Kandi and rave accessories, her interpretation of kandi culture comes to life in our new collection in collaboration with her. Learn more about the inspiration behind it and about her styling tips in the interview below: 

iHR: Tell us a bit about the collection: What inspired it? What concepts are you excited to bring to life?
Liya Kitten: I've always been passionate about the kandi culture and I've always want to incorporate it into my designs and products. Another concept I'd like to experiment with is a crossover between rave and stripper fashion since I work as a dancer as well.
Liya Kitten x iHR Kandi Land Side Tie Bottoms, Top and Arm Sleeves

iHR: What were some of the challenges you faced in creating this collection?
LK: I would say that I'm very particular about what I want and I need to be completely satisfied with the final result before I approve it. I've had the idea of creating this clothing line since January 2023, more than over a year ago but I wasn't completely happy with the pattern design I had at the time. I almost gave up on the idea of having my own rave clothing collection until savormeditation reached out to me, it was then I decided I need to fix the pattern design. So in a way I feel like it is meant to be, a way of universe sending me help. 

iHR: The designs you sell in your store have so much detail. How do you come up with them?
LK: Brainstorming and writing down all my ideas, then adjust and change until I'm happy with the final result.

iHR: Do you have a favorite piece you've ever made?
LK: My favorite piece and design is the kandi heart with hands. I like the color pink and the design is very me.

iHR: As a queer raver, what does the rave community mean to you?
LK: Acceptance and be comfortable with my body, also to freely express myself.

iHR: Which festivals are you most excited for this year?
LK: Tomorrowland in Belgium! It will be my first time and I'm very excited.

iHR: Favorite festival memory?
LK: Having a vendor booth at Camp EDC in 2022. Being able to experience the festival as a vendor and seeing my brand being inside EDC means a lot to me. It still makes me feel emotional thinking about it.

iHR: If you created a piece of kandi right now, what would it say?
LK: Sunshine, my dog's name. :)

Any raver knows that massive festivals like EDC are certainly fun, but the real scene is hidden in the smaller, local festivals sprinkled across the globe. Get Funky, the annual all-house music festival that takes place on the shores of the Great Salt Lake every spring and early summer, is no exception.

With a killer lineup and some of the best sunset views you'll ever see at a festival, Utah's Get Funky is worth the trip. This year's Get Funky is just a few weeks away, but there's still time to get going! Below you'll find everything you need to know about Get Funky, from what to wear to how to get there! 

Get Funky Festival

The 2024 Get Funky lineup is one that you cannot miss. With headliners like Kaskade, Tchami, and Malaa, Get Funky is set to bring the summer vibes. Catch sets from supporting acts like Wax Motif, Wuki, and Chris Lorenzo with even more throughout the two-day festival weekend. Get Funky started as a one-day festival to bring in the summer, but quickly grew to a two-day event after it became so popular. 

This year's Get Funky Festival will take place from June 21-22 at The Great Saltair just outside of Salt Lake City, UT. You can grab tickets here, and prices start at $125 for a two-day GA pass! Check out the 2024 Get Funky lineup below: 

Getting There

The Great Saltair is just a short drive outside Salt Lake's bustling downtown. Grab an Uber from downtown or take one of the shuttles offered by the festival for an easy ride. Get a shuttle pass here. You can also drive out there, but be aware that you'll need a pre-paid parking pass. You can grab a parking pass at the festival website. 

What to wear to Get Funky Festival

The weather in Salt Lake at this time of year is warm, but not hot. Be prepared for some possible summer rain, but don't feel like you have to bring a coat! Here are some of my fav picks for Get Funky this year: 

Parallel Universe Rainbow Reflective Halter Outfit

Neon Nostalgia Cutout Outfit

Electric Ember Outfit

Starlight Sprinkle Sequin Outfit

Sunflowerraver x iHR I'm Sensitive Cutout Bodysuit Outfit

Slander x iHR Electric Edge Reflective Outfit

Backstage Girlie Keyhole Cutout Outfit

Alright rave babes, let’s talk about celestial prints. Imagine wearing the night sky! Think moons, stars, and dreamy galaxy patterns. We're loving all of the zodiac and celestial inspired rave clothes that we're seeing at events lately. Here is how to celebrate your love for the stars in your rave outfits: 

Sequins

Now, for the sparkle lovers—sequins are your best friend. I think sequins and sparkles can embody the night sky and pay homage to your love for all things celestial without taking a literal interpretation. These are some of my favorite pieces at savormeditation that remind me of the night sky.

Moonstone Pop Outfit

Starlight Sprinkle Outfit

Zodiac Prints

Calling all of the astrology girlies! Zodiac prints are the perfect way to show off your love for the cosmos and, luckily, they're in fashion right now. Look for pieces that feature horoscope symbols and other signs associated with the zodiac. 

EastNWest Label Celestial Robe

Channel Your Venus Sign

Okay, astro babes, this is where it gets personal. Your Venus sign rules your style and aesthetic, so let’s channel that energy into your rave look.

  • Fire Venus (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius): Bold, daring, and attention-grabbing. Go for bright colors, metallics, and statement pieces. Think dramatic makeup and fierce confidence.
  • Earth Venus (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn): Elegant, grounded, and luxurious. Choose earthy tones, lush fabrics, and practical yet stylish accessories. Minimalistic makeup with a touch of glam.
  • Air Venus (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius): Trendy, quirky, and playful. Mix and match patterns, go for unique accessories, and keep your look light and fun. Experiment with colorful makeup.
  • Water Venus (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces): Dreamy, mystical, and enchanting. Opt for flowy fabrics, pastel or deep shades, and romantic details. Go for soft, ethereal makeup.

Beyond Wonderland at the Gorge Amphitheatre, shortened as “Beyond PNW” is renowned as one of Insomniac’s most prolific annual festival series every EDM-enthusiast should experience.

This Alice in Wonderland-inspired music festival returns this June 22-26 to George, Washington. Dedicated to increasing the accessibility of this storybook-meets-psychedelic-magic to the Pacific Northwest, this year’s thematic edition comes to life as Beyond Wonderland at The Gorge: Mad Tea Party. 

Welcome to The Mad Tea Party: Event and Lineup

House, bass, riddim, hardstyle, techno–you name it and it’s there on this spectacular lineup presented on three stages. Those three stages are: Cheshire Woods, Caterpillar’s Garden, and Queen’s Valley. Major artists to create the wonderland’s soundscape include Max Styler, SIDEPIECE, Jessica Audiffred, REZZ, Of The Trees, and so many more!

Special performances will grace the stages such as Mellodeath (Marshmello x SVDDEN DEATH), Odd Mob + Omnom Present: Hyperbeam, KAYZO Unleashed XL, and Smoakland B2B SIPPY. With such heavy-hitters on this year’s lineup, don’t forget to bring your earplugs! Check out the full lineup and official playlist to prepare for the tea time of your life! 

Besides the inclusion of major artists we all know and love, Insomniac performers ALWAYS infiltrate the festival grounds near interactive art installations with more of Alice In Wonderland’s storybook elements from the page to right in front of your own eyes. If you ever wanted to meet the Queen of Hearts in person, you might just have the opportunity at this festival! 

Tickets and Camping

GA, GA+, and VIP passes range from $230-383 with layaway plans. Looking for the best views of the stage? The SkyDeck pass can provide private table service as well as access to all areas including other parts of the SkyDeck. Whether you like chilling in glamping tents, RV, or your handy-dandy tent, there’s six camping options to accommodate everyone!

Of course, there’s basic amenities such as showers, bathrooms, and free filtered water. Not only that, Beyond Wonderland PNW curates free campground activities each day like a late-night silent disco, a costume party, and bingo! Reserve your camping passes now while availability lasts and save the Campground Activities Schedule to your camera roll! For all camping info such as amenities, safety/rules, and more visit here.

The Storybook Journey to the Rabbit Hole: Travel and Hotel Packages

The Gorge Amphitheatre is known for festival-friendly summer weather but is 43-155 miles away from local airports which makes it a journey with a fantasy destination! Have no fear with Insomniac’s official Beyond Wonderland PNW travel information and services to help you on your trip down the rabbit hole!

If you were wondering about shuttle services, there aren’t any available shuttle services from the airport to the Gorge Amphitheater. Albeit, if you’re not interested in camping at the festival grounds, there’s plenty of luxury resort and/or hotel packages for a premium stay; check out resort and hotel packages here for a smoother experience.

FYI: you can make a hotel arrangement without purchasing a luxury resort package. Make your flight schedule and arrangements even easier with the official Beyond Wonderland flight finder tool to book the correct flight.

Tea Party Fashion: What to Wear

This festival welcomes you to dress up as any Alice in Wonderland character of your choice: the Queen of Hearts, Alice, Cheshire Cat, Mad Hatter, or the White Rabbit. But, if you see me there, I’ll be dressed as one of the playing card soldiers!

Here are some fits that we would wear inspired by the trippy world of Alice In Wonderland! 

Pixie Petals Side Tie Outfit

Neon Nostalgia Cutout Outfit

Dancing On Sunbeams Outfit

Starlight Sprinkle Sequin Outfit

Forest Nymph Floral Long Sleeve Outfit

Happy Hour Carnival Outfit

The iconic Y2K fashion trends are back and better than ever! Fashion is cyclical and it’s officially time for a Y2K trend reboot. Not sure where to start when building your Y2K-inspired fit? Here are a few of our favorite looks that have been revived.

Platforms

Platform boots are already a staple in rave fashion. They elevate your look and make you feel like a total baddie. In the 2000s, platform sandals were huge. Now this style is making an appearance at raves. These Demonia Cross My Heart Platform Sandals channel Y2K energy while adhering to modern trends and rave styles.

Anthony Wang Nocturnal Mood Platform Ankle Boots

Rise to the Top Platform Boots

Playful accessories

Lucky for us, Y2K fashion included tons of adorable accessories. Think dainty, girly and colorful. Tinted sunnies, especially light pink, were a necessity. Check out these ESQAPE Heartbeats Frameless Glasses for inspo. Another important accessory was a body chain. These super cute waist accents will sparkle in the sunlight and add that extra something your outfit needs.

High Tech Life Geometric Glasses

Iridescence Butterfly Claw Clips

Feathers

If you aren’t already, you’re going to be seeing marabou accents everywhere you look very soon. These feathers are stylish, soft and add a fun twist to any piece. If you’re looking to rock this Y2K trend, the Bubbly Baby Marabou Halter Top has the right color scheme and a groovy print. Bonus points because it has matching pants and a matching fan! You could also let the feathers take over with something like the Rainbow Reverie Faux Fur Bikini Top and Mini Skirt.

Happy Haven Outfit 

 

Pastels

Show off your Y2K style in pastel pinks, blues and purples. This is your chance to model the “baby girl” aesthetic in the chicest way possible. Of course, the Recycled Fabric Rave Baby Ruffle Bikini Top is great for this trend! It’s feminine, pastel and has ruffled sleeves, so it’s pretty much the perfect Y2K rave fit. Don’t forget the matching Recycled Fabric Rave Baby Ruffle High Waist Bottoms!

EDM Bombshell Outfit 

 

Mini skirts

When it comes to mini skirts, the tinier the better. During the Y2K era, these skirts were usually low waisted and just barely had you covered. You can stick with that original look, or go for something a little more modern. High waisted mini skirts, like the Buttercup Baby Sequin Mini Skirt, are a great example of an updated version of this trend.

Rainbow Reflective Daisy Outfit

 

Chokers

Various styles of chokers have had their moment in the ‘90s, ‘00s and even the ‘10s. The main difference is that during Y2K, dainty, colorful chokers were the way to go. The Hot Shot Heart Choker has it all, from a pastel color to a cutesy, heart-shaped ring.

Night Light Holo O-Ring Choker

Butterflies

Butterflies have already made their comeback in rave fashion, but they were also huge in the 2000s. Specifically, everyone was wearing butterfly accessories, like hair clips. The Butterfly Fantasia Hair Clips will pair perfectly with these Butterfly Utopia Earrings. Or, if you’re looking to combine multiple trends into one, check out the Free As A Butterfly Silver Belly Chain and Fly Free Butterfly Choker Set.

]]>
Summer is just days away which means it's time for back to back festivals, concerts and outdoor raves now that the weather is nice again. Gemini is a very social sign which rules a time of year that most people associate with having more social experiences. LGBTQ+ Pride is smack dab in the middle of Gemini season, making it a time of celebration and joy that radiates around the world.

Gemini placements are very social creatures. If u have prominent Gemini placements in your birth chart ur probably a social butterfly, and u love fluttering around a festival to make new friends and experience as much as u can. On the other hand, u probably have a very intimate side too. A lot of people think Gemini placements are two-faced, but the truth is that u just have two major sides to your personality that each come out at different times.

Gemini girlies are probably equally focused on comfort and fashion. U need something that will get u around the festival but it also has to be compliment-worthy. U have amazing style and even though we've got fits for days that would bring out the best in ur Gemini razzle dazzle but ur probably going to mix & match to make something even more fab than we could ever imagine.

Here are my top picks for u, Gemini. If u don't have this air sign in ur big 3, though, don't worry. I'll be posting a new guide each month so keep an eye out for next month when I go over you rave babes with Cancer in ur sun, moon, and rising.

Gemini Sun

While people might question if they rly know u at times, absolutely no one is questioning whether ur a true Gemini, babe. Ravers with Gemini in their sun sign are the life of the party, but good luck keeping track of u because ur also probably missing. U march to the beat of ur own drum and u don't need to wait for a group to explore something new. Ur style is kind of all over the place, but it always comes together in a way that is truly authentic to who u are—u know what ur doing.

Everyone around u wants to get closer to u because ur magnetic, but that might mean that u feel like most people don't truly know u. That can be tough, but u always have the dance floor to work out ur problems on. Here are my top picks for u, Gemini sun, inspired by my favorite Gemini rave babe, Mika:

Happy Hour Carnival Outfit

Happy Haven Outfit

Rolita Couture x iHR Floral Frenzy Punk Princess Outfit

 

Gemini Moon

With the social Gemini representing ur inner personality, Gemini moon, ur probably a little less outwardly social than those with Gemini in their sun. U definitely have the restlessness of Gemini and ur always off learning or doing something new, but u might be more of a researcher than a teacher. Ur probably the one checking out every single set at a festival because u get bored easily and need to keep moving, and u love learning weird facts about the band or DJ onstage in the Wikipedia hole u get into later on.

Here are my top picks for u, Gemini Moon: 

Heaven's Dust Outfit 

Acid Storm Outfit

Gemini Rising

U want to do it all, Gemini Rising. U probably have a desire to check out everything there is at the festival, which can feel overwhelming at a place like EDC or Coachella where there is so much to do and only so much time to do it. U thrive in social situations but sometimes u can get overwhelmed, so learn to recognize when to take a break to recharge.

Ur style is probably all over the place just because u always want to try new things, but just like your sun and moon counterparts, it's always authentic to who u are. Here are my top picks for u, Gemini rising:

Butterfly Realm Glow In The Dark Outfit

Rainbow Reflective Daisy Outfit

Happy Days Daisy Outfit

Trend alert! The butterflies are out to play this summer. There are so many ways to style this adorable trend, but don’t worry, we’ve got plenty of inspo for you. Whether you’re looking for a super girly fit, something a little more edgy, or just the finishing touch to a look, we’ve got you covered.

All About Butterflies

If you really want to lean into this trend, butterflies can make a great centerpiece for your outfit. You can pick one major butterfly piece or use butterflies as an accent in hair clips or other accessories! 

Butterfly Realm Glow In The Dark Outfit

Butterfly Realm Outfit

Get Groovy

Stand out in bright colors, flowy fabrics and big prints. There are some fabulous butterfly-themed sets out there to help you feel like the ultimate PLUR Princess. Check out the Groovy Butterfly Glam Outfit if you want to completely cover yourself in butterflies and get groovy on the dance floor.

Touch The Sky Stars & Butterfly Hair Clips

 

Accessorize

If you have an outfit that needs some help, accessorize with butterflies! They make for a super cute and dainty addition to any look. Try hair clips, pasties, jewelry or sunglasses. If you want to make the trend a little more edgy, go for this Butterfly Kisses Body Chain. No matter the vibe you’re giving off, butterfly accessories can make a great accent piece!

Make It Shine

You can still rock this trend without covering yourself head to toe in butterflies. These Lunatics X savormeditation Butterfly Beatz Body Jewels could be just what you need to complete your look and dazzle the crowd. You can also use butterfly face gems or glitter to add some shine to your style. It doesn’t matter if your outfit is already butterfly themed or not, a little sparkle could be the perfect finishing touch.

Happy Haven Long Sleeve Ultra Crop Top

Feeling Dreamy

Embrace your feminine side with pastel colors, sparkles and all things girly. You can build a truly enchanting look with these styles. A pastel mesh top would look gorgeous with the Pastease Holo Silver Butterflies. A sparkly set with butterfly accessories could also create a girly outfit that’s sure to make you feel great about yourself!

Perfect Patterns

Butterfly patterns are probably the easiest way to achieve a butterfly-centered outfit. Depending on the colors and design, you can pair a butterfly pattern with a ton of different pieces. If you’re going for a darker style, check out the BB Ur So Fly Halter One Piece. Do you want a softer look? Try this Treasure The Funk Butterfly Mini Skirt.

Butterflies have been taking over rave fashion, so you’ll probably see a lot of them this summer. Now you have some ideas of different ways to style this trend. You can make it totally your own, going with a more edgy, dreamy, groovy, or completely unique look! Have fun building your butterfly-inspired fits, we can’t wait to see them this festival season!

Festival season is the best time of year to find new artists, and one of my favorite new finds of the season is none other than AUSTERIA, who is set to take the stage at Solshine Reverie this weekend in Chillicothe, Illinois.

Fresh off the release of her new single, "Shadows of Deceit", AUSTERIA is gearing up for a major festival season. We caught up with her just before her Solshine performance to talk about everything from her music to her festival style. She even curated some picks of her favorite savormeditation pieces. 

Get tickets for Solshine Reverie here

iHR: Tell us a bit about how you got into DJing? Which came first, DJing or producing?

AUSTERIA: I went to my first dance music events in high school and instantly fell in love with the music and community. Honestly, becoming a DJ really never crossed my mind until I started seeing women like Rezz and Alison Wonderland climbing the ranks, seeing that really opened my eyes to the possibility. The second I learned that you can make music on your computer, I downloaded a DAW and started teaching myself via tutorials online. So, technically, I started with producing, but I was really teaching myself both simultaneously in my parent’s basement.  

Road to Revenge Lace Up Platform Boots

“These are classic black platform boots that will match almost anything.”

iHR: Tell us a bit about your production process. How do you go about writing songs?

A: It depends on the song! I usually pick a key, bpm, and genre first and then start a rough draft of an intro and kind of work through the song from start to finish. Then, I’ll return to different sections and flesh them out more. Sometimes I have a theme and title before starting the project, and sometimes I find the theme/vibe along the way. 


iHR: You've had a couple of new releases recently, could you tell us about them?

A: Absolutely! I recently did a remix of Sully’s song ‘Impossible’ featuring Sarah McTaggart which was super fun to do. By the time this interview comes out, my newest single ‘Shadows of Deceit’ will be out and I’m really excited for that. I’ve recently been working with vocals more and it’s been a lot of fun to learn more about vocal production and the story telling that comes with that.

Vacay Ready Fanny Pack

“This is the perfect crossbody bag, so you can keep your valuables in front of you to protect from theft.”

iHR: Any upcoming releases we can get excited about?

A: I have a collaboration with Zingara and another official remix that will be coming out soon and I’m really excited about both of those. I’m working on a few other collaborations at the moment, as well as my next EP, so there will be a lot to look out for and be excited about this year. 


iHR: What are some of your musical inspirations?

A: My musical influences change with whatever is going on in my life, but the one constant has always been alternative, pop punk, and metalcore bands. Currently, my biggest inspirations right now are Sleep Token and Bad Omens. From their songwriting and production to their stage presence, branding and story telling, I just find both bands to be very inspiring. It has totally shifted how I think of my own project and the future I see for ‘Austeria.’ 

Bound Together Fingerless Gloves

“A cute accessory that can spice up any look.”

iHR: What are you most excited about for your upcoming Solshine performance?

A: This is my first festival of the season so I am super excited to see everyone, dance around, be in the festival spirit and explore. This will also be the first time I’m playing out my newest release, ‘Shadows of Deceit,’ so I’m really looking forward to that. 

Endless Glow Joggers

“Classic joggers, ladies don’t be afraid to shop in the men’s section!”

iHR: What is your craziest rave or festival memory?

A: This is a tough question, but I think I have to give my craziest festival memory award to Lost Lands 2017 when the volcano started burning down at the main stage during Destroid. 


iHR: Where do you look for inspiration when it comes to festival fashion?

A: I honestly look at what my peers and friends are doing and then put my own taste/spin to it. It’s been a journey figuring out how I want to present myself as a woman while performing at these events for a variety of reasons. My main concern is being comfortable up there. In the past I’ve just thrown on a big t-shirt and called it a day, which I still do, but I’m trying to branch out from that and explore different options and be more comfortable in my skin. I’ve always felt this unseen pressure to dress more masculine as a performing DJ, but I’m trying to leave that behind! I don’t know if it’s just me, but I feel like I’ve felt a shift in this mindset among my peers and it’s inspired me to branch out as well. 

Techno Temptation Strappy Bra Top


iHR: What are some of your favorite festival or rave fashion trends?

A: I love a small-top-big-pants combo. I also really love the crochet top trend that’s going on right now. Everyone looks so cute. I love when people wear costumes and dress up as their favorite characters or faeries and go all out. And most importantly, I love the sprouts. Sprouts make me happy.


iHR: If you made a piece of Kandi today, what would it say?

A: “Tippy in my teacup”

If there's one style that we can get behind, it's the cyberpunk look. This look is all about channeling visions of the future that we saw in turn of the century movies like Zenon: Girl of the 21st Century. Here's how to bring our your inner cyberpunk baddie for the rave or festival this season. 

Black Rave Clothes 🖤

First things first, black is the new black. Seriously, you can't go wrong with all-black outfits. Think sleek, tight-fitting clothes that scream "I'm here to party." From bodycon dresses to high-waisted leggings and crop tops, black is your bestie. Look for pieces with cool cutouts or mesh details to add that extra edge. Plus, black goes with EVERYTHING. You’ll be turning heads left and right!

Sunflowerraver x iHR I'm Sensitive Cutout Bodysuit Outfit

Metallic Accessories 🪩

Shiny things alert! ✨ Cyberpunk isn't complete without some metallic bling. Go for statement pieces like chunky silver chains, holographic belts, and reflective sunglasses. Don't be afraid to mix and match different metallics – silver, chrome, and even rose gold can work together if you style them right. And don't forget those futuristic visors – they’re the perfect accessory to make you look like you just stepped out of a sci-fi movie!

Slander x iHR Electric Edge Reflective Outfit

Experiment with Fabric Textures: Leather, Vinyl, Fishnet 🔥

Now let's talk textures. Cyberpunk is all about mixing and matching different fabrics to create a look that's out of this world. Leather jackets or pants give off that tough, badass vibe. Vinyl skirts or leggings add a slick, shiny touch. And fishnet? It's perfect for layering. Throw on a fishnet top over a bralette or under a crop top for a look that's both edgy and sexy. Play around and see what combos make you feel like a cyber queen!

Sugar Bomb Outfit

Sleek Hair 💇‍♀️

Your hair is just as important as your outfit, babes. For that cyberpunk look, go for sleek, straight hair. Think long, shiny locks that look like they’ve been styled with a laser beam. If you want to take it up a notch, add some colorful streaks or even try out a bold, unnatural color like electric blue or neon green. And don't forget, space buns and high ponytails are always a vibe.

After Hours Vinyl Outfit

Platform Boots 👢

Last but definitely not least – shoes! Platform boots are an absolute must. Not only do they give you some serious height, but they also complete the cyberpunk look perfectly. Go for black boots with buckles, studs, or even LED lights if you’re feeling extra. The chunkier, the better. Pair them with your black rave clothes and metallic accessories, and you'll be ready to dance the night away.

Festival season is here, and you know what that means – it’s time to flood your feed with those perfect pics that scream, “I’m living my best life!” But getting that ultimate festival photo isn’t just about pointing and shooting. Today we're spilling our secrets to snapping those envy-inducing festival shots. 📸✨

Lighting: Golden Hour is Best

First things first, let’s talk lighting. The secret sauce? Golden hour. It’s that magical time just after sunrise or before sunset when the light is soft, golden, and oh-so-flattering. Think of it as nature’s filter, giving you that perfect glow without the need for heavy editing. Plan your snaps around these times, and thank me later. 🌅✨

A Good Photographer: Find Your Photo BFF

Now, you can’t be out here with just any random snapping your pics. You need a photo BFF – someone who gets your angles, knows your vibe, and is down to take a million shots until you get that perfect one. Bonus points if they’re also into getting some awesome pics for themselves, so it’s a win-win situation. 📸❤️

Poses: Keep It Natural or Candid

Okay, let’s talk poses. The key is to keep it natural or go for those candid shots. No one wants to see you stiffly posing like it’s a high school yearbook photo. Laugh, dance, jump – do whatever feels natural. Pro tip: fake laugh if you have to. It might feel awkward, but it often leads to genuine smiles and laughs. 😂💃

Props: Use Them Wisely

Props can take your festival photos from meh to magical. Got a cool totem, funky glasses, or a yummy festival snack? Use them! Props add personality and tell a story. Wave that flag, sip that drink, or munch on that food – just make sure it feels authentic to your festival experience. 🥤🎉

Background: Find the Perfect Spot

Your background can make or break your festival photo. Look for spots that are visually interesting – think colorful murals, scenic views, or even the main stage. Avoid cluttered backgrounds unless you’re going for that chaotic festival vibe. Remember, you want your background to enhance your photo, not distract from it. 🎨🌸

Acid Storm Outfit

Editing: Experiment and Find Your Style

Finally, editing. This is where you can really make your photos pop. Experiment with different styles until you find one that you love. Whether it’s bright and vibrant, moody and dark, or somewhere in between, the right editing can transform a good photo into a great one. Apps like VSCO, Lightroom, and even Instagram’s built-in editor are your best friends here. ✨

So, you've just survived another epic Electric Daisy Carnival, and you're feeling like a headbanging tornado. We all know the post-EDC feels can hit harder than anything, so here's your ultimate guide to decompression after the festival of a lifetime.

1. Hydrate Like a Pro 🥤

First things first: water is your BFF. You spent the last few days dancing under the desert sky, so your body is screaming for hydration. Chug that H2O, and maybe toss in some electrolytes for good measure. Coconut water, sports drinks, or even a DIY electrolyte mix will help get you back to life.

2. Scrub Off the Rave Residue 🧼✨

Glitter is a vibe, but it doesn't need to live on your body forever. Hit the shower and give yourself a good scrub. Use a gentle exfoliator to get rid of the remnants of your wild weekend without wrecking your skin. Pro tip: baby oil can help with stubborn glitter patches.

3. Get Some Self Care 🛁💆‍♀️

EDC is a marathon, not a sprint, so your body deserves some serious pampering. Run a warm bath with Epsom salts to soothe those sore muscles. Light some candles, throw on a chill playlist, and just soak. Your body (and your soul) will thank you.

4. Feed Your Soul (And Your Stomach) 🍕🥑

After days of festival food, your body is craving some real nourishment. Load up on fruits, veggies, and lean proteins to replenish your energy. And hey, don't be afraid to treat yourself to a pizza or your fave comfort food. Balance is key!

5. Digital Detox 📵🌿

You've been bombarded with lights, sounds, and social media for days. Take a step back and unplug for a bit. Put your phone on Do Not Disturb, binge-watch a Netflix series, or get lost in a good book. Give your mind a break from the constant stimulation.

6. Reflect on the Vibes ✨📝

Take some time to reflect on your EDC experience. Journal about your favorite sets, new friends, and magical moments. Gratitude and reflection can help you process the highs and lows, keeping the positive vibes flowing long after the festival ends.

7. Stay Connected with Your Rave Fam 🌐💖

Just because EDC is over doesn’t mean the connections you made have to be. Keep in touch with your new rave buddies. Share pics, reminisce about your favorite moments, and plan your next festival adventure together. Rave fam is forever!

8. Plan Your Next Adventure 🎟️🚀

What better way to cure post-EDC blues than planning your next rave adventure? Whether it's another festival, a local event, or even just a weekend getaway, having something to look forward to can keep your spirits high.

Remember, decompression is all about finding your balance and restoring your energy. EDC might be over, but the memories and the vibes will stay with you forever. So take care of yourself, spread those positive vibes, and keep dancing through life!

If you have ever looked at yourself after you have gotten all dressed up for a festival and thought “this outfit is missing something,” then you are not alone. That cherry on the top might just be a fishnet accent piece.

A staple in a rave baddie’s wardrobe, fishnets add a textural component to a look that would otherwise be solid, without adding much more fabric. Fishnets are also perfect to add to your look if you are not quite comfortable yet with showing off a lot of skin because they hide enough to leave a little to the imagination.

How to Style Fishnet and Mesh

Fishnet accents go so far beyond just tights. Use fishnet thigh highs with garters for a simple, yet fire, statement to virtually any outfit. Accentuate your arms with fishnet arm warmers and gloves. Toss a fishnet skirt over your bottoms for a look that can easily translate to a club outfit. Slip into some fishnet biker shorts to add some dimension. Wear a fishnet bodysuit to add texture EVERYWHERE. I’ve even transformed fishnet tights into a top and used a fishnet facemask as a tube top to add a little je ne sais quoi with my under bust corset.

Fishnets come in virtually any color, so why not switch up the classic black with another color that compliments the rest of your outfit? Are you wearing pink on your top, but black on your bottom? Throw on some pink fishnet stockings to mirror your color scheme without the fishnets blending in. Is your outfit completely white, but you want to wear colorful jewelry? A rainbow bodysuit would be the perfect edition to tie everything all together. Want to keep your outfit black and white? Put on one white stocking with one that is black and do the same thing with your garters

Fishnets are the perfect accent piece to add a little edgy-ness to your next look. But whatever form of fishnet you choose to wear to your next show, just beware of zipper pulls.

]]>
I’ve always said that going to raves is like running a marathon. We don’t realize it because we’re always having so much fun, but it’s actually pretty tiring. To reach the finish line—which, in rave terms, would be the headliner—you need to make sure you’re looking after yourself.

To help you, here are our top tips for how to stay comfortable at raves so you can party safer and for longer.

Stay Hydrated

When you’re in the crowd and in direct sunlight you end up getting dehydrated much faster. To combat this, make sure you’re drinking plenty of water. Even if you’re not feeling thirsty, just consciously take a few sips every now and again. 

Get your hands on a rave hydration backpack so you can fill up on water and not need to leave the crowd to refresh yourself. Look out for free water booths scattered around the rave!

Take Breaks

My rave friends and I call them ‘Boogie Breaks’! When we start to feel a little tired we like to exit the crowd, find a place to lay down, have a catch up on what we’ve seen so far and maybe even meet some new rave friends.

Rave responsibly and always listen to your body, don’t push it beyond its limits or you might run into the risk of needing to visit the medic tent or leave early. If you need a break to recharge, don't be afraid to say so!


Remember to Eat

Would you go to the gym on an empty stomach? Well, the same goes for raves. Dancing is as much a sport, it burns so much of your energy!

Fueling your body will assure you can stay at your peak levels of fun. Even if you’re not feeling hungry, on your next break just pass by a food vendor and grab a snack or smoothie, your body will thank you.

Opt for Comfortable Rave Wear

Wear light, comfortable and breathable rave wear. The secret is to stay away from anything itchy, that’s distracting or would prevent you from having fun.

We’re constantly updating our massive range of rave fashion. All of our designs are on-trend and functional, so you can look flawless but also be comfortable at the same time.


The Same Goes for Footwear

Your choice of footwear is just as important as your outfit. Be sure to wear a pair that are the right size for your feet so you don’t get blisters and also wear closed-toed shoes to protect your feet from something that may fall or stomp on them.

Discover our collection of must-have rave shoes! From flats to platforms, and everything in between, you’ll be sure to find a pair that’ll keep you dancing all night long.

A timeless and classic style, a fairy themed rave fit checks both the boxes of being whimsical and cute. Some festivals just go with the fairy vibe, like Electric Forest or any festival at The Gorge in Washington. 

From a classic cute pastel fairy to a mushroom or fairest fairy, there are a bunch of themes you can go with when creating your look. Fairies conjure up images of nature, flowers and pixie dust; reflect these in your set, makeup and accessories.

When looking for outfit pieces, keep an eye out for anything sparkly or made with floaty fabric. Check out the tips below to get the perfect fairy rave outfit! 

Pastel Fairy

For a pastel fairy, a sequined set like the Roma X IHR Starry Eyed Sequin Sequin Cami Top and matching bottoms in its pastel blue shade will let you dazzle day and night or go the aerie fairy route with the Purple Wonderland Tie-Front Top, Mesh Arm Warmers, and Ruched Mesh Skirt.

Any pastel butterfly accessories, like the Lavender Butterfly Hair Clips, Flutter Wings Butterfly Choker, and Butterfly BB Vibez Sunglasses, would make this outfit look straight out of a fairytale. A set of Light Up Leg Wraps brings the whimsicality of your look into the night. Finish off your fairy theme with a pair of YRU Dune Desert Pink or Baby Blue Iridescent Platform Boots or if you prefer some shoes closer to the ground, the Pretty Please Purple or Baby Pink Chunky Sneakers will do the trick. 

Let your creativity take you on an adventure when creating your makeup look. Make sure you include sparkly stickers like the Lunita X IHR Rave Fairy Cut Crease Face Jewels for an easy rhinestone cut crease or the Lunautics Rave Day Face Stickers for some holographic butterfly effects. If you are more into glitter over the stickers, the Lunautics Cosmic Galaxy which includes glitter in the shape of butterflies and stars would be a really cute touch.

Forest Fairy

If you’re looking for a more forest fairy style, any set featuring dark green is the way to go. To help guide your theme, look for accessories featuring flowers and leaves in gold for some goddess energy or in varying colors to keep it more natural. The Lunautics Layered Floral & Face Jewel Mix Pack Set is an incredibly versatile pack that you can use not only on your face, but anywhere on your body that could use some flowers and a little sparkle. Makeup featuring neutral or green tones would keep your outfit feeling earthy, but don’t be afraid to go for some colors to match your floral accessories.

Mushroom Fairy

Mushroom fairies have been trending this past year with people donning their homemade mushroom hats.  A set featuring white ruffles and a red mini skirt with white spots all over would be the perfect sort of cute for a cottage core mushie vibe.

As ravers, neon has always held a special place in our hearts, but now it’s taking over festival fashion. Fluorescent colors are a major up-and-coming movement in rave wear for 2024. We’ve already seen a lot of fellow headbangers in neon fits over the past few months as we got back to live shows, and we think the trend is here to stay. We’ve outlined four different ways to style neon colors to help you look your best at your next rave:

Pair with a neutral

Slander x iHR Reflective Lace Outfit

Happy Haven Outfit

 

The great thing about neutrals is that you can match them with pretty much any color you choose. I love wearing neons with black, because the contrast really makes the color pop. The neutral/neon style is super versatile too. It’s easy to mix and match pieces, so you could create a brand new outfit from what’s already in your closet! Not sure how to get started putting the fit together? Try pairing a neon with a neutral mesh, or look for pieces that already mix neon and neutral, like the Break The Matrix High Waisted Harness Booty Shorts.


A monochrome look

When styling a trend, why not go all out? Pick your favorite neon color and sport it from head to toe! You can accessorize with neon hair extensions, glitter, jewelry, sunglasses, the possibilities are endless. This is a great opportunity for one pieces, like this Neon Lights Mesh Cut Out Mini Dress. Because this style is trending so hard right now, you’ll also be able to find a ton of neon-based outfits, like this Neon Pinksicle Outfit. Looking to match with your rave fam? It won’t be too hard to find similar monochrome outfits in different colors, and it’ll make for awesome photos!

Make it rainbow

Trippy Time Acid Smiley Outfit

If monochrome isn’t your thing and you’d rather go with a more colorful style, make it rainbow. A neon rainbow fit is sure to make you stand out in the crowd, and it can be a great way to show off your pride! Pro tip: if you search “Rolita Couture” on savormeditation, you’ll find a ton of great pieces for a rainbow neon outfit. A couple of our favorites are the Rolita Couture x IHR Geo Trouble Crop Top and the Rolita Couture Rainbow Kisses Wrap Top.

A tiny splash of color

Rainbow Reflective Daisy Outfit

Sporting an all black or white outfit, but still want to incorporate some color? A splash of neon might be just what you need to create the perfect fit. This is a great time to let your hair and makeup skills shine, literally. A little glitter can go a long way. If you want something low maintenance, just slap on some hair and body glitter in your chosen neon color and you’ll have a subtle pop of color catching the sun as you dance. Neon face jewels would also pair well with this look. If you’re looking to get creative with your makeup, you have endless options. Neon eyeshadow, glitter and body paint can help you show off your talents and rock this trend.

No matter how you decide to wear your neon, you’re going to look great! While some neons are more common, like pink, green, orange and yellow, you’ll be able to find other colors too. This makes the trend great, because you have the freedom to choose the best color for you. It’s all about what makes you feel good and gets you in the mood to rave.

Bold makeup completes any rave look—and for EDC, it’s time to go all out! The energy under the electric sky is unlike any other, and whether you like an intense graphic liner or shimmering glitter, there's a makeup look that will be perfect for you. With EDC approaching quickly, it’s time to get inspired with these 10 makeup ideas.

Graphic Liner

Nothing makes a statement quite like graphic eyeliner. Whether you go for black, white, or colored liner, you can accentuate your eyes by drawing geometric lines, dual wings, or unique shapes. Look for a colored, waterproof, liquid eyeliner to create this look and use the natural shape of your eye as a guide for where to place the lines.

Stick-on Gems

face jewels

It’s EDC, so it’s time to pull out all the stops! Stick-on gems add all the bling to your rave look. There are single press-on rhinestones or packs of jewels you can apply above your eyebrows or below your eyes. Some are even reusable and can be applied with eyelash glue if the stick starts to fade!

Temporary Tattoos

Be a show-stopper by applying temporary tats to your face! You can use them on your cheekbones, next to your eyes, or above your brows. You can also pair them with face jewels to put them around your body as seen above.

Colorful Inner Corners

This is my personal go-to rave look. I do my classic black eyeliner wing with no shadow on my lid - but then I add a pop of neon color to the inner corner of my eyes. I especially love doing this with shimmery, holographic eye shadow. It brightens and draws attention to the eyes.

Rainbow colors

Go with the full rainbow spectrum this EDC! You can apply ROYGBIV to each eyelid - or, do red, orange, and yellow on one lid, and green, blue, and purple on the other lid for a look that spans your whole face

Bright brows

Filling in your brows is a common step for applying makeup, but have you ever tried a vivid, colorful brow? You can use eye shadow or even a colored liner to fill them in with a color of your choice, letting your brows take the center stage of your look!

Monochrome

If you’re doing a single colored outfit, like an all pink or an all neon green look, stick with that monochrome color for your makeup. It will tie your whole look together. Adding some stick-on rhinestones that match your color will put the cherry on top.

Holographic Highlighter

I’m obsessed with holographic, shimmery, color-shifting makeup! Adding some holographic color to your cheekbones will keep you looking like a shimmery fairy all night long.

Bold Patterns

Have you ever tried to paint on cow spots, plaid lines, or fluffy clouds to your eyelids? EDC could be the opportunity you’re waiting for! Depending on your outfit, match a bold pattern and apply it to your eyes.

Hot or Cold

Would you go with red, orange, yellow, or green, blue, purple? Pick a side - warm or cool - and use that for your makeup inspiration. You can use colored liners, shimmery eye shadows, and vivid lipstick to make this hot or cold look come to life. Bonus points: your best friend can be the hot to your cold, or vice versa!

No matter which makeup idea you go for, be sure to apply setting spray before heading to EDC to lock in your makeup for a long night of dancing! It’s smart to bring eyelash glue or lipstick with you in case of an emergency re-apply. The hardest part, for me at least, is not touching my face once my makeup is on! If applied correctly and set in place with setting spray, it’s best not to mess with it. But, I would recommend sticking a few cotton swabs in your bag, just in case you need to touch up the area under your eyes. We’ll all be crying during our favorite sets, but we’ve got to keep our makeup looking fire. Remember to stay hydrated and have an amazing time under the electric sky!

]]>
If you're like me you probably fantasized about what Woodstock could have been like back in the day. The perpetual nostalgia for Woodstock has been a huge influence in what makes the festival scene what it is today. That is especially true at festivals like Bonnaroo, which bring the rocker vibes and boho trends together for a psychedelic experience in one of the best camping festivals in the United States.

Bonnaroo takes place every summer on a farm in Tennessee (check out our guide here for everything you need to know about going to the festival). With the hot weather and the camping, you'll really want to go for comfortable rave wear that won't make you sweat any more than you already are! There are tons of music genres at Bonnaroo which means you can get creative with your looks and really go for whatever vibe you want, but here are some top picks for you:

  • Boho Hippie
  • Flower Print
  • Trippy Prints
  • All Black

Boho Hippie

There is no shortage of hippie vibes at Bonnaroo. Sets from headliners like The Chicks and Stevie Nicks will be the perfect place to live out your Woodstock dreams in these fits that look straight out of a 1960s Polaroid.

Lava Java Psychedelic Fringe Outfit

Happy Haven Unisex Patchwork Overalls

Vibrant Vortex Fishnet Top

I don't think I need to explain why groovy flower print would go well at Bonnaroo. These cute prints are great for channeling your inner hippie:

Faux Leather

Faux leather pieces add another dimension to all black outfits. Playing with different textures and looks of black pieces can really make you stand out.

Sexy Black Shoes

An outfit isn’t complete until you pair it with some cute black shoes! Nowadays, there are so many different styles of shoes like chunky books and shoes with tons of chains and accessories on them. Shoes are also super important because you’ll be on your feet all day and night so you want to find something that is sturdy and gives you protection from other people that might accidentally step on your feet.

Choosing outfits and colors can be haunting and stressful, but you can never go wrong with an all black outfit! Black colors give off sexy vibes and with different textures and materials like faux leather and mesh. If you can’t decide what to wear to a rave or festival, you can create an ultimate look with black outfits and pieces that will have people turning heads at the rave!

Camping festivals are an amazing experience, especially if you go with your rave fam to a festival known for its one of a kind experiences and art. Bonnaroo is a unique festival that happens annually on a ranch in Tennessee. This camping festival always offers a unique lineup and camping experience that makes it worth checking out. This year the event will take place from June 13-16 and features headlining performances from headliners like Post Malone, The Red Hot Chili Peppers, and Fred Again, among others. 

Bonnaroo can be incredibly fun or be the complete opposite if you come unprepared! The event is just around the corner so I thought I’d provide tips and tricks that you’ll need to plan a successful and stress-free experience at Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival.

 

Do Your Research Before Buying Your Ticket

The festival’s website provides plenty of information on all the different ticket types available. If it’s your first time going, it’s worth reading through it to understand what’s included in each ticket to find the one that’s right for you. There are quite a few ticket options that determine the experience you'll have. You can do anything from GA to an ultra-VIP experience that includes a nicer camping area, golf cart transportation to each stage, unlimited food and drink and special viewing at each stage.

Always remember, festival admission tickets do not include camping passes, so you’ll need to buy them separately. You can also choose tiered camping passes based on the experience you want to have. Tickets and camping passes range from affordable prices to higher prices for a more luxury experience, but give a lot of variety to pick from. You can get both camping and festival passes here.

Plan How You’re Getting There Ahead of Time

Driving is the most popular travel option for Bonnaroovians. Most people drive into the festival, either by car, RV, or uHaul… But if driving isn’t your thing, rest assured there are also shuttle routes departing from different places to get you to the festival grounds. No matter which mode of transport you go for, you need to pre-book your pass with your festival ticket. Make sure you do so in advance before they sell out!

The drive to Manchester is about an hour outside of Nashville or about three and a half hours northwest of Atlanta. Both airports are easily accessible from most US cities and offer lots of rental car options.

Plan to Get There Early

When you’re making your travel plans, keep in mind that the sooner you arrive the closer to the festival entrance you’ll be! The campgrounds fill from front to back so as long as you plan your trip accordingly you won’t get stuck in one of the furthest campsites. Anticipate long lines as you get closer to the festival, so add at least an hour to your travel time for the time you'll spend waiting in line.

Packing is Essential, Be Prepared for Rain

Sunshine isn’t always in the forecast, it’s not uncommon for it to rain and for temperatures to drop. And when it rains at Bonnaroo it pours, so the festival grounds can get really muddy. Bring what you need to stay dry and warm if the weather turns:

  • Warm layers
  • Poncho
  • Boots
  • Thick sleeping bag/blanket

…But Also Be Prepared for Sunshine

On the other hand, it can also get very hot and sunny which requires a whole other list of essentials. Whatever you do, before you start packing check the weather forecast to ensure you have everything you need to enjoy your time at the festival. Here are a few necessities you should think about packing:

Bring the Right Footwear

Depending on which area you’re assigned to at the campgrounds, you might end up having to walk quite a distance to get to the thick of the action in Centeroo. Blisters can easily ruin your entire festival weekend so bring the right footwear and socks. Or if you can’t forego your platforms, make sure you have a few dollars to spare each day to catch a pedicab from the campgrounds to Centeroo, and back!

When it doesn’t rain at Bonnaroo a giant cloud of dust will start to surface as soon as the masses of people start trampling all over the festival grounds. Make sure you bring a bandana or face mask to avoid ingesting heaps of dust.

Baby Wipes are Your Best Bet to Stay Clean

Bonnaroo showers are notoriously dirty and the queues can take forever! Arm yourself with some baby wipes to combat any sand, mud or sweat you encounter and need to wipe off.

Pack a Flashlight With Extra Batteries

The campgrounds are massive so finding your tent can be tricky, particularly late at night when it’s dark and you’re tired. Pack a flashlight to make it easier to find your way back! It will definitely come in handy when you’re walking through the campgrounds late at night and even in some parts of the festival.

Bring a Totem/Flag/Floatie

The festival is the size of a small town, over 100,000 people attend each year so it’s really easy to lose your friends in the crowd. Have a totem, flag or floatie that you can spot from a distance and you’ll never lose your group again! When you’re not using it in the crowd you can hang it at your campsite so you’ve got something to look out for when you’re walking back to your tent.

Arrange Your Ride for a Quick and Easy Car Check

Be mindful of what you pack, check Bonnaroo’s official list of prohibited items before you load up your vehicle to prepare for a seamless car check on arrival. Car checks are random but you never know if you’ll end up having your vehicle searched so always respect the rules and be prepared.

If You’re Traveling as a Group, Stay Together

Ensure that everyone in your group that wants to camp together gets in line together, this will guarantee you get to set up next to one another. Bonnaroo crew members won’t wait on your group and definitely won’t save spots for anyone on the campgrounds.

I hope these tips get you well on your way to planning the most incredible weekend at Bonnaroo! Need some inspo for your ‘fits?

PHXLIGHTS: Supernova shapeshifted the Phoenix Raceway into a supersonic space odyssey taking flight to a milky way of celestial music for the aliens posing as EDM-worshipping humans in Phoenix, Arizona! With artists NGHTMRE, Seven Lions, and Deorro B2B Valentino Khan, the raceway-turned-dance-floor was ravers’ getaway from their galaxy far, far away during this two-day futuristic adventure! 

The Mothership Stage: Far Out Among the Stars

As gates opened and RESIDUO welcomed ravers to this intergalactic party,  they were greeted by the legendary flying saucer PHXLIGHTS sign inspiring those to snag a quick picture with their rave families, or should I say fellow space cadets? When the sun finally vanished to reveal the stars in the black sky, night 1’s special B2B performance showcased JOYRYDE B2B Habstrakt was loved to the moon and back.

Watching JOYRYDE collaborate with a friend and fellow DJ-producer Habstrakt on stage livened him to express his delight that spread to the crowd’s body language. JOYRYDE said he was grateful to be there at PHXLIGHTS with his friends and family while rainbow visuals were displayed in the background. With this masterful combination of these two heavy-hitting names, it created another flavor of bass house that felt extremely special to PHXLIGHTS.

If this set couldn't become more special for this duo, JOYRYDE asked the crowd to wish Habstrakt him a happy birthday and the crowd without hesitation proceeded. In the midst of everyone dancing themselves clean, a rave family dressed as a group of astronauts in full helmet gear! 

For the past three years in Arizona’s EDM scene, the spinning cloths, formally known as flow stars, weren't extremely popular, but they were popular in Arizona this weekend! It was eye-opening to see this new and upcoming change happening in the local flow art print paired with matching Kritter Klips and a tail!

It wasn’t exactly related to aliens but it was a space-strawberry-inspired look! Seeing this specific outfit inspired me to buy matching Kritter Klips and corresponding tail at The Dreamland Studios vending booth! One unexpected perk about this festival map: there was always a food vendor in close proximity to every stage which saved time!

On night 2, ALLEYCVT shared her space bass transcending the crowd, followed by Apashe and Dr. Oliver Tree. After, the crowd finally made it to their destination into a futuristic soundscape with Deorro B2B Valentine Khan and Kaskade.

Extraterrestrial Earthlings at The Evo Silent Disco 

Two channels hosting to the sounds of house, bass, DnB, and the genre-bending combination of all of it was a perfect spot to spend time away from the main stage if you needed a break from the crowd. Plus, who doesn't like channel surfing to give support to all of the artists? By the end of the night 1, most people scattered this stage’s dance floor to see Seven Lions.

Even though PRETTYHARD’s performance was the second to last set for this stage, Sed’s Vortex was seen at the front of the stage supporting him–seeing DJ-producer-couples support one another is another form of PLUR in my book! Night 2 scheduled artists DOMINATRIX, SAFEWORD, and more to continue Arizona’s trip beyond the galaxy. 

BeatBox Invasion Stage: Abducted by the Sound

Near the outskirts of the BeatBox Invasion Stage, Weird & Wonderful cast members were dressed in chrome outfits and large green yoda ears! If you’re a stage-hopper like me, watching performers in full character on the way to the next stage deserves to be listed on the itinerary of fun at every festival!

Despite the Invasion stage being a side stage, many would think this stage wouldn’t rise to the occasion with a packed stage, but this stage was packed during SEPPI’s hardcore performance that had everyone dancing to every bass drop on night 1! District XII, a local heavy riddim DJ, still had dancers clinging to every heavy bass drop because Arizona celebrates local artists from their community like any other headliner! Night 2 carried another well-loved riddim DJ-producer BLVCKROSE, Cafe Caderas, and more to end the weekend’s excursion.
