Summer 2014 promises to be yet another great year full of music, festivals, shows and more. So what should you be wearing to ensure you're on trend this summer and, more importantly, which events should you be going to?
What to Wear Mini skirts are in - it is summer after all! Luckily there's a great range of
George mini skirts available from George at ASDA that will take you from festival to concert effortlessly. Denim mini skirts are particularly popular again this year and can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion. Team with wedges or perhaps wellies if you're at a festival, heels for a night out, and a statement vest and accessories and you have the perfect outfit for any occasion.
Where to Go There are so many festivals and events taking place throughout the summer you'll be able to take your pick of the very best. Here's a quick rundown of what's on:
