Rocking The Daisies 2012 is officially SOLD OUT! I obviously left packing to the very last minute, throwing whatever was clean into a bag at 7am this morning. Of course, packing for anything in Cape Town is an absolute nightmare with the promise of summer/winter/rainy weather at any given time over the next 48hours. Allow me to remind you that RTD is as much a fashion show as it is a music festival so if you have yet to pack, keep these key RTD trends in mind:
- Skin. Show as much of it as you can. If you have denim short-shorts at home, cut them shorter. In
fact, cut all your clothes. T-shirts are out. Crop tops are in.
- Long hair. Girls, long hair is everything here. If you've got it, flaunt it. And by "flaunt it", I mean
"wear it down, with a slight natural wave (never ever allow it to look like a hairdryer may have seen
your hair in the past 60 hours) at all times. Except when it's up in a messy top bun.
- Leggings. As pants. Yes that's right. Wear your leggings with inappropriately short tops, or over-
sized grey sweatshirts.
- Hunter Boots. Come rain or shine, you have to wear these boots. They are probably the one item
that will make or break your RTD wardrobe.
- A water bottle. This is as much a survival item as it is a fashion item. You'll need it to stay hydrated
during all your electro tent dancing. But it will also serve as a valuable fashion accessory.
- Headbands. Not to keep your hair off your face, obviously.
- A bikini. Cause you never know.
- Crocheted items. Of all sorts. Crop tops, skirts, bikinis! If you don't own any, use any of your
granny's crocheted table cloths as a "shawl". Instafashion!
