Despite your aching hangover from the shit show that was Mayfest, you’re going to want to keep reading. Summer is coming up, and you are probably already panicking about what to wear to whatever music festival you paid way too much for. However, this summer is all about small details and accessories and less about clothes. Make sure to stock up on stylish, music festival inspired accessories that you can wear on the daily, or to an actual music festival.
Note: Flower crowns are for basic bitches... stay away from them at all costs.
Other than flower crowns, however, there are a myriad of accessories to choose from that will take your summer outfits to the next level. The boho trend is still very in right now, and a lot of accessories are inspired by the trend. In addition, ethnic and tribal inspired fashion pieces are all the rave for the summer. Here are some festival accessories that we love:

2. Henna

When wearing a more revealing outfit, body chains can be a really great accessories. Hand chains are also a great way to add a feminine touch to your summer outfit with jewels to brighten it up.
4. Feathers
