Your choice season of the year has finally arrived. No, not spring; music festival season is upon us. You know, those few months when your holiday and sick days get allocated around sprawling fields packed with people and your favorite musicians.

In preparation, you set a reminder to buy the tickets the millisecond they dropped, booked your flights when the airline was having their annual sale, and spent countless hours researching and securing that apartment rental just close enough to have everyone over for the post party. But have you thought about what you'll pack? No, you haven't. That's where we come in. 

To make sure that you've got all the right looks, we’ve put together a handy little guide for the style assist. It's all about packing a few key pieces that will work together and have you prepared for a variety of weather situations. And, of course, don't forget a portable phone charger so you're not that friend with the dead phone who loses everyone and misses "THE MOST EPIC TIME EVER, BRO." 

This is A Stop-Motion Guide to Packing for Summer Music Festivals. Watch it, digest it, pack it, and make it your own. Happy festival-ing!
