Festival Fashion At SXSW 2013

Much like the city of Austin, the fashion at SXSW has a mood all its own.  It definitely has a more rugged element to it than typical festival fashion, with elements like ripped denim and western boots popping up everywhere.  This year we also saw a lot of eclectic mixed prints, statement bohemian accessories, and round sunglasses were everywhere! Another must-have accessory – the camera, of course. Festivals are a time to let go and dress for how you’re feeling – the fashion at SXSW was a true reflection of the slightly manic atmosphere of Austin during the festival, with a nice dosage of the city’s trademark weirdness shining through (in the best way!). Here are some of our favorite looks from SXSW 2013!

I love how cute and easy this look is – pair a lightweight printed maxi skirt with an easy teeboots, and a head scarf and you’re festival-ready!

I saw these girls, and felt really sorry for their feet at ViceLand. But they seemed to be loving it, despite the falls, nonetheless! Go for it, if you dare! I, myself, prefer my boots and converses :)
