1. As Much Colour As Possible

We all know that pride is all about colour – be it the famous rainbow or the pride flag itself. Your outfit should be as wild and out there as possible, combining bright and beautiful colours that are as extra as possible. Don’t be afraid to go all out, pride is one of the least judgemental events you’ll ever attend and it’s all about being seen and heard and doing and wearing whatever the heck you want, so take it as an opportunity to go wild. Either be completely yourself or take it as an opportunity to go way out of your comfort zone – just do you and keep it as colourful as possible!

2. Glitter, Glitter and More Glitter

Realistically, who doesn’t love a bit of glitter? It’s cute, it’s fun and it just looks so good on! Face glitter is really hot right now, and it isn’t just for Coachella and Glastonbury, it is most certainly for pride too. Experiment! Test out some cool glitter eyeshadow looks, or jewel looks across your cheeks. Alternatively, why not try body glitter or even glitter in your hair? You always know you’ve had a good time when you’re still finding glitter all over yourself days after an event.

3. Accessories

Pride is all about accessories, be it bum bags, huge flags, whistles, hats, anything you like really. Some people go all out with banners and flags for the marches, and some bring water guns, shot glass necklaces and whistles for the parties. Whatever accessories you like, get some for pride and wear them or wave them proud! Also, be sure to buy yourself some cool pride merchandise and accessories whilst you’re there, as often the money from these items is donated to charities that support LGTBQ+ people.
