What Should I Wear to…?: Dave Matthews Band Caravan Weekend

Chicago is home to a ton of great concerts and music festivals. This weekend, we welcome the Dave Matthews Band and a slew of other acts (ahem…Kid Cudi, anyone?) to the southside steel-plant venue.

Want to test out your boho-chic look? This is the weekend to do it. Start with a great graphic tank or tee, like this one from L.A.M.B., and pair it with a bright white pair of denim shorts, like these ones from James Jeans.

Make the shoes as simple as possible. Concerts are neither the time nor the place to break out a hot pair of heels or espadrilles. Go with flat sandals. Try them in the wrap style, like these from Opening Ceremony.

If you want to be a bit more daring, add this poncho from Urban Outfitters. You never know if it’s going to rain and your friends need you to stand in as a super chic tent.

Urban Outfitters also makes this incredible Mexican woven backpack/blanket hybrid. It’s the perfect way to both keep your belongings, and complete your boho look. Love it.

Remember to drink lots of water, minimize the number of things you bring into the venue, stay away from anyone offering you candy (or anything that looks like candy), stay cool, and look good.
