Get The Perfect Look For Your Next Concert With These Trending OOTD Must-Haves
Sheer Is In
Sheer tops, dresses and mesh clothing is all the rage. From Bridgerton star Simone Ashley to digital creator Aashna Bhagwani, everyone has already adopted this trend. And we couldn't love it anymore. Sheer pieces can be worn with a cute bra, or layered to make it winter appropriate. Pair it with glittery accessories and smokey, sultry makeup looks!

Free the Fringe
This one's here to stay. This trend has a quality that makes the wearer a little bit sultrier and a little more mysterious. From skirts and footwear to bags and dresses there are a variety of fringe products for you to stock up your wardrobe with. Just remember not to overdo it. Keep everything else simple, pick one fringed addition (either a top, dress, bag or shoe) and let that be the hero of your entire look.

Crochet All The Way
Crocheted accessories never left the chat. And now crochet clothing is here to wow us all. Popular in the '70s, crochet has officially made a comeback, with bikinis, bucket hats, handbags and dresses. Keep it simple by adding a layer of silk or satin underneath. Accessories are the easiest to include in your look.

Embellished, jewelled or sequined—call it what you want. A glittery and bright bag is just what you need for a festival. Small bags are a must at any concert to fit all your trinkets. Sequin bags paired with babydoll dresses is just the pairing you need in your life!
