I Fell in Love at a Music Festivalโ€”And These Are the Essentials Iโ€™ll Never Forget Again

Thereโ€™s something about music festivals that feels electricโ€”the energy, the music, the freedom to just be. I consider myself a festival girlie through and through, and my love affair with them started in 2019. Since then, festivals have become my annual ritual, due to some amazing music festival must-haves. But it wasnโ€™t just the music that made me fall in loveโ€”one unforgettable weekend in 2021, under the starry Las Vegas sky, I found love in a completely unexpected way.

It was an R&B and hip-hop festival, and some of my favorite artists were performing. I was going, and my best friend (and crush) wanted to go as well, so of course, I invited him with me. Three days of dancing, sweating, and vibing later, the desert night turned cold. He wrapped his arms around me, and just like thatโ€”our friendship became something more. Weโ€™ve been together ever since.

Now, if youโ€™re a plus size girlie, you already know that forgetting a music festival must-haves isnโ€™t just inconvenientโ€”it can be a total game-changer. Over the years, Iโ€™ve perfected my must-pack list, ensuring my festival experience is always top-tier. Trust me, these are the music festival must-haves you donโ€™t want to leave behind.

CAKES Nipple Pads

For all my girlies who love a sheer top or a skimpy festival โ€˜fit, these are a lifesaver. They smooth everything out, keep the girls secure, and stay seamless under any outfit. Whether itโ€™s a crochet bralette, a mesh bodysuit, or even a daring bikini top, these are a must. And trust me, you can never have too many.

Stick Deodorant (The Ultimate Anti-Chafing Hack)

Long days, endless walking, and dancing under the sun mean one thing: sweat. Stick deodorant isnโ€™t just for freshening upโ€”itโ€™s the best anti-chafing trick in the book. Forget expensive anti-chafing balms; any stick deodorant will do. Swipe it between your thighs, under your arms, anywhere you need a little extra glide, and thank me later.

A Camera Fan (Small But Mighty)

Youโ€™ve seen those handheld fans, but let me put you on to my personal faveโ€”the camera fan. Itโ€™s tiny, powerful, and attaches right to your phone, keeping you cool while you snap the perfect festival selfies. Bonus: It keeps your makeup from melting, which is a lifesaver for those long festival days.

Extra Accessories (Because Youโ€™ll Always Want More)

No matter how well you pack, thereโ€™s always thatย one thingย you wish you had. Thatโ€™s why I sayโ€”bring it all. A bra extender? Pack it. A statement chain belt? Absolutely. An extra pair of sunnies? You wonโ€™t regret it. Festival fashion is about having options, and once you're there, finding the perfect finishing touch isn't as easy as a quick shopping trip.

A Jacket (Yes, Even in the Desert)

The biggest rookie mistake? Thinking the desert stays warm at night. I learned this the hard way when I forgot my jacket in Vegasโ€”but hey, it led to the best moment of my life, so no regrets. That said, I nowย alwaysย bring a lightweight but warm jacket. Itโ€™s cozy, stylish, and just in case youย wantย a reason for a cuddle, you can always "accidentally" forget it in your room.

Knee-High Boots (The Real MVPs)

I know, I knowโ€”sneakers are the obvious choice. But hear me out: knee-high boots (especially ones designed for wide calves) are a game-changer. They protect your feet from dirt, keep you comfy, and add a statement to any look.ย Pleaseย donโ€™t make the mistake of wearing open-toe sandals unless you enjoy pain and regret by hour three.

A Great Lip Gloss (For That Unforgettable Kiss)

The final touch? The perfect lip gloss. My ride-or-die is the Laneige Lip Glowy Balmโ€”hydrating, non-sticky, and just glossy enough to give that effortless, kissable finish. Because whether youโ€™re kissing your longtime crush under the festival lights or just living your best life, a little gloss goes a long way.

Music festivals arenโ€™t just about the music; theyโ€™re about the memories, the friendships, the fashion, and sometimes, the unexpected love stories. Whether youโ€™re heading to Coachella, Stagecoach, or any other festival this season, take my adviceโ€”pack smart, stay fabulous, and always leave a little room for magic.
