FOOTWEAR - WHAT TO WEAR TO A MUSIC FESTIVAL
I always opt for flat shoes, with some padding or support if possible, whether they are sandals, sneakers, or boots. The benefit to closed toe shoes would be that you can wear ankle socks underneath them. I like to wear something with some cushion - YOU WILL BE WALKING AND DANCING A LOT! I do think it's fun to go a bit dressier in style, rather than your oldest kicks, as shoes can make or break an outfit. Just know that whatever shoes you wear will get dusty and dirty, so don't bring your nicest shoes, or ones that you can't replace. And, make sure they are versatile for whatever outfits you create. I love the idea of embellishing your own boots, too! There are tons of tutorials out there!

The Mexicali Sandals, below, offer a nod to the Southwest and are made of leather, so they will last forever!
And, Birkenstocks are always comfortable and you can walk quite a long distance in them.
These cute, boho sandals have a lot going on, but are definitely in the festival spirit! They remind me of friendship bracelets, and could possibly be replicated with the help of some beads, twine, and ankle bracelets. So cute!!
And, of course, Free People always knows what's up! I love how they have paired some more industrial (and practical!!!), tall boots with a maxi skirt with a high slit! Perfection.
