loufest day 2

 

Dress (on sale!) // Booties (Similar colors in lots of styles under $100 on this site as well!) // Sunglasses // Bag

This was my outfit for Loufest day 2!  Since it was a bit warmer for Sunday's shows, I opted for more traditional festival wear and went with a flowy Free People dress.  I can't count the number of times I've worn Free People to a music festival, it's always a solid choice to nail the boho vibe of a festival and their dresses are just so comfy and easy to dance in.  

Sam Edelman releases these booties every year and they've been my favorite for (not kidding) almost 5 years now.  They just seem to never go out of style and the low block heel makes them insanely comfortable.

I even wore them in an (embarrassingly old and hilarious) outfit post here in 2011!

I thought I would share my outfits from Loufest on the blog this week!  While my usual festival style leans more in the direction of crop tops + cutoffs, the temperatures this weekend were only in the 60s so I had to switch it up in a major way.  This was comfy and more importantly, warm enough for the evening shows when I topped it off with a leather jacket (that of course, I forgot to include in these pics!)  

I'm pretty obsessed with these jeans - they're Gap's new "Resolution" line of denim and they really, truly don't bag out - one of my biggest pet peeves in a pair of denim.  They were also under $60 which is a total win in my book!

We had such a fun weekend these past few days - we went to Loufest music festival - St. Louis' own, and it always feels perfect that we end the season here in our town.  It was unbelievable weather, in the 60s both days and perfectly sunny!  We had promised Claire to the grandparents for the weekend, although we missed her so much!  With the amazing weather we could have taken her with us easily, and she's at one of my favorite stages ever right now, so snuggly and smiley and curious.  As I write this, she's just been dropped off at daycare by my mother and I'm counting down the hours until I get to pick her up after work.  

After my parents picked her up, we got ready and made up a pre-festival brunch.  

These were supposed to be muffins, but I'm not a grown up apparently and realized once I got the batter made up that I don't own a muffin tin.   I made a blueberry cake instead and it was still delicious!

Once we got to Forest Park, we had a little car/bar party until the first show we wanted to see.  

And that's all there is folks!  I wish I had more pictures, but it was a successful Loufest all around and I magically ended up not being too tired today.
