Concerts

First off, some of you may have noticed that I added a new feature to the homepage called "Call 911!". This is a new thing I'm testing out where you can send me any fashion questions (via prepconfidential@gmail.com) and each Thursday I'll try to address the best one on my blog!

Anyway, I was talking to my friend E about what she would want me to talk about today, and she wanted me help her figure out what she should wear to a concert she was going to soon. I figured this was PERF, considering me and my friends just got tickets to the Jingle Ball like, yesterday.

Ok, so the first rule that I would say about looking cool at a concert would be wear something funky. I like sequins especially, and my grandma has this ridiculous sweater-thing made of all black and white sequins standing up so they look like fish scales that I'm begging her to borrow. It sounds really weird but it's actually TO DIE. Remember if you're going for something sparkly keep the rest of the outfit low key (ie. sequin mini with white t-shirt) so it doesn't look like you should be hanging from the top of the arena with the disco balls.

Second, don't wear flip flops. At least, I wouldn't. It doesn't matter how adorable or new they are (I know, so not me). The truth is, the floor at concerts is DISGUSTING, with people's food and drinks and gum and what-not, and if someone spills something or accidentally makes a misstep when jamming out to whoever is playing, you're really going to regret your choice in footwear.

Be careful of what bag and outerwear you're going to bring. I know that in the rest of the world (aka. NOT FLORIDA) it's the time of year when it starts to get cold. I'm not sure if there would be coat check or things like that there, but in warm places like this we don't. If you're going to bring a sweater, either wear it or leave it. You shouldn't put it in your bag, because you shouldn't have such a big bag to begin with. Nor should you have a stupidly tiny one like a wristlet. There are so many people at concerts that unless you keep it zipped up and on your arm at all times you run the risk of it being taken.

Well, that's all I have on concert attire, hope it helped E. Oh, and if you're on the floor it might be a good idea to wear heels. Just to, you know, get some leverage. :)
