Photographed by Yelena Yemchuk1/9When it comes to festival dressing, it can be tough to be creative. The weather is hot, the days are long, and cramped camping quarters mean minimal wardrobe options. But that doesn’t mean you have to resort to the tried — and tired — typical festival uniform.
Yep, it’s finally time to bid farewell to denim shorts and flower crowns — we know, parting is such sweet sorrow. But this festival season, it’s all about taking a more low-key route with quirky tops, textured tees, or layers you can lose. Click through for inspiration from Teen Vogue’s May 2016 issue — and get ready to dance all day (and night) in your new low-key looks.

Photographed by Yelena Yemchuk7/9Go easy on the makeup — the last thing you want is eyeliner running down your face as you race to your next show! Instead, choose a long-lasting lash tint like Milk Makeup Weekend Lash Stain and make your beauty statement with a little face paint. Let a volumizing mousse like John Frieda Frizz Ease Dream Curls Air-Dry Waves Styling Foam do the heavy lifting for your hair.
