Laneway not Lameway

I have to admit I thought I was getting too old for festivals. Yes, at the weary age of 23 i was exhausted by Big day out, Homebake and Park Life. By the time Good vibes rolled around I was not keen at all and preferred to stay in bed.

I was particularly O V E R it due to the sheer fact that people at these places annoy me . I don't like when people coordinate outfits, i don't like boys in fluoro Bonds singlets and i don't see why people think its okay to wear ridiculous sunglasses on these days.

Yes I am a festival Grinch but the mass populace generally scares me. Any who my point is that I may be a convert after attending St Jerome's Laneway festival recently. This is like the Glenmore road of festivals as opposed to the Big day out being the Parramatta Westfield of festivals.

Everyone here looked super cool, there were less people and there was no B.O. Isn't that fab?

The whole festival was just an uber cool club of Sydney strolling around and do you know what i liked best?It was the fact that I could not really pick up on any trends because these people were cool enough to wear what they liked not what Kate Moss Ala Glastonbury told them to.

Boys were rocking loads of RVCA jeans and a few cool cats were channelling the Rockabilly look. Girl wise i honestly couldn't tell you as they were all so different. There was a large Russh population, all the showroom girls and tonnes of stylists, including my fave Tamila Purvis. I was certainly staring at them all behind my shades.

Meow.
