Trendspotter’s recent post on “Glamping” inspired Jess and I to go camping this weekend to celebrate Jess’ birthday. (Happy B-day Jess!) While we wish we had that amazing DWR tepee to sleep in, the $2,000 price tag is a little out of  our budget.

As much as we would love to glamp, unfortunately, we’ll only be looking the part this weekend.

If you’re planning a trip into the wild this summer, here’s what you’ll need to look like a glamper:

1. Boardshorts are a must if you’re heading to a lake, river, or ocean. Just because you enjoy looking glamorous, doesn’t mean you’re not adventurous. Check out this fun pair for a feminine sporty look. Pair with a solid tank, flip-flops, wayfarer sunglasses and a bright hoodie if it’s chilly.

2. Short Shorts for hiking. You’ll probably want something a little more breathable than your boardshorts. Linen is a great option because it makes anyone look glamorous.

3. Something to wear for when you return back to camp. Sitting in your sweaty linen shorts is so NOT glamping. Change into something fun and camp-y, like a pair of denim shorts and some lumberjack plaid before you help get the campfire going.

4. Depending on where you are, the temperature may drop after the sun falls. Find out before you go and be sure to pack some comfy sweats to sleep in. I like these from PINK.

5. Since you may not be able to wash your hair, be prepared with a cute headband and some extra hair ties.  If you’re prone to frizzing, a hat might be a good idea for the morning.

So go ahead and camp it up you glamper!  Wish us luck this weekend, it’s my first time.
