With the One Direction concert coming up (3 DAYS AHH) I thought I would share some of my favorite concert outfit ideas if you are stuck trying to decide on what to wear to your upcoming concert. The one thing I like about concerts is that the possibilities are endless when choosing what to wear! You can choose to go on the fancier side or more casual and you still look like you fit in! Well, I'm pretty sure if you show up in an evening gown with stilettos, you will get some looks, but if that's what you want to wear then you do you!
I came up with FOUR (hehe get it) outfit ideas, two more casual and two that dress you up a little bit, that will hopefully spark your inspiration! Lately I have been using Polyvore A LOT because you can plan outfits with their large selection of clothes/accessories and have them saved so you can go back whenever you want :-) The thing you have to be careful with is something may look cute, but it could be $100+ so unfortunately I did not keep track of the prices for these outfits, but these are supposed to be more inspirational so it works out in the end.
One thing I do recommend is for you to be comfortable in what you're wearing, you don't want to have to constantly pull down your dress because you're afraid the person behind you can see your booty or you don't want to wake up the next morning with blisters all over your feet from your new pair of shoes (trust me, I did it not once but TWICE and still question myself on why) When going to a concert, you should try and look nice, but the most important thing is to have a good time listening to your favorite artist!
LIVELY & BRIGHT // CLASSY OUTFIT I
Solid Green Short Sleeve Lace A Line Dress - $20 rosewe.com
Saint Laurent Leather Sandals - $395 mytheresa.com
Aeropostale Dream Catcher Short-Strand Necklace - $7 aeropostale.com
CC Skye The Elite Double Horn Wrap Necklace - $118 pinkmascara.com
For this outfit I wanted something a little more colorful, so I went with this emerald green A-line dress. I love the lace print on it because it brings a more vintage vibe without looking like a grandmother's table cloth. Can we please talk about the color of this dress!? It is so fun and summery! If green is not your color, then you can go with any other color that suits your preference! When I wear bold clothing items, such as a dress like this one, I prefer to go with more neutral accessories, so I paired the dress with simple chestnut sandals. For jewelry, I chose to layer necklaces, since that is my new favorite thing to do and I found these gold necklaces and it looks like the stone matches the dress which is perfect! For my hair, I would go with it down, either curly or straight!
GIRLY & CUTE // CLASSY OUTFIT II
OASIS Lace Insert Playsuit - $39 oasis-stores.com
TOPSHOP FELINE Ankle Tie Sandals - $65 topshop.com
Liz Claiborne White Stone Gold-Tone Bib Statement Necklace - $38 jcpenney.com
For this outfit, I thought a romper could be a fun touch to an outfit since you wouldn't have to worry about pulling down anything, but you still get to dress up a little bit. I chose this romper because the coral color is perfect for the summer season and the little peek-a-boo of lace adds a girly touch. I found the white ankle tie sandals and thought they would go nicely with the romper, it adds a more casual vibe to the outfit. Since the top of the romper is pretty simple, a statement necklace is the perfect touch! I found this white one, like I previously mentioned, I choose neutral accessories so for this outfit, I went with white. To make sure you don't look too busy up on top, a top knot or even a messy bun would be the perfect finish to the outfit, plus you wouldn't have to worry about your hair sticking to your sweaty neck from dancing so much!
CASUAL & COOL // CASUAL OUTFIT I
White I'm With The Band Roll Sleeve T-Shirt - $12 newlook.com
Vintage 90s Light Blue Wash High-Waisted Rise Cut Offs Cuffed Rolled Jean Shorts - $35 etsy.com
Pieces Black Leather Sara Flat Sandals - $64 asos.com
Ray Ban Sunglasses - $123 ray-ban.com
Of all four outfits, I thought this one is the most stereotypical concert outfit, you've got your band tee and high-waisted shorts, what else do you need? I did switch up the shoes and instead of Converse/Vans, I went with these cute black sandals from ASOS. If you couldn't tell, I'm sort of obsessed with sandals that wrap around your ankle hehe If you're going to a summer concert, you'll obviously need your favorite pair of sunglasses! To complete this look, you can style your hair pretty much however you want. I thought tousled/messy waves would be the cherry on top for this outfit!
DISTRESSED BUT WELL DRESSED // CASUAL OUTFIT II
Mango Patch Pocket T-Shirt, Natural White - $28 johnlewis.com
Genetic Los Angeles Gia Distressed Boyfriend Jeans - $270 modaoperandi.com
Charlotte Russe Black Bamboo Belted Lug Sole Booties - $38 charlotterusse.com
Miss Selfridge Long Layer Semi-Precious Necklace - $13 missselfridge.com
Double Chevron Ring - $15 gogolush.com
Now this one would probably have to be my favorite of the four! I'm all for being comfortable at concerts and with the boyfriend tee jeans, you know that your only worry would be to have a good time instead of making sure your outfit is where it's supposed to be. I absolutely LOVE the shoes for this outfit! There's a Charlotte Russe by my house so I just might need to stop there the next time I'm out hehe Most people prefer not to wear shoes with a heel to concerts because you'll be standing for a long period of time but the short, chunky heel on this shoe should not cause too many problems and for those that are shorter, a little heel can ensure you won't be blocked by the person in front of you! I found these really delicate layered necklaces which goes nicely with the chevron ring. To finish the outfit, I would either go with tousled waves or your favorite hairstyle!
I will definitely be posting on what I end up choosing to wear for my upcoming concert so stay tuned to see if I decide to go casual or dressy!
Until next time...
