Put away your pitchforks and blow torches. I’m not about to bag it. I’m just feeling a little conflicted. In 2012 Frank Ocean dropped Channel Orange and had me completely captivated. It was soulful, progressive and musically interesting (something we lack so much of these days). It would not be exaggerating to estimate that I have listened to the whole thing, start to finish, upwards of 100 times since its release. And I’m still not over it.

So imagine my anticipation when, after all the teasers and false alarms, we finally get two new album drops, in the space of two days: Blond and visual album Endless. Of course I couldn’t remember my Apple ID password. Devastating. Had to create a whole new account before I could listen. But that’s not the point.

Blond or Blonde (depending on who you ask) failed to grab my attention on the first listen. But that’s fair, hardly any album does. I’m a firm believer that any album deserves three full listens before passing judgment.

You’ve semi-successfully set up your tent, picked out your outfit and lined your stomach with a bacon and egg roll – so what to do before the good tunes start in the afternoon? Give yourself a killer Splendour beauty look (before you start day drinking, please) with the stuff you’ve already got in your make up bag.

Resident MUA + beauty expert Isabella Iasenzaniro gives you the tips on easy, impactful looks and the perfect second day hair, inspired by the runway.

Inspired by technology and modernity, Finder's latest collection ‘Static’ is a lesson in innovation and colour play.

Their exclusive static print makes a pivotal statement, fusing together geometric blocks of colour, while prominent hardware and eyelets make a return, along with tassels, cording and spliced colour contrasts. By adapting these key seasonal trends, Finders reinforces their position as a constant source of new wardrobe favourites.

Keep it cohesive yet cool with an updated palette of soft pastels for your big day. From soft rose to peach, sweet lemon to iced grey, pastels a guaranteed crowd pleaser and their versatility means it’s super easy to work in with your colour scheme.

Going for a classic look? Try minis, midis and maxis in simple cuts to suit all of your bridesmaids. Add subtle mesh layering or intricate beading if you want a little something extra, or go all out with frills and subtle splits.

Nothing is worse than tearing round your house, hair bedraggled from sleep, trying to simultaneously drink coffee, apply eyeliner and decide on an outfit to wear from your collection of things you’ve worn a million times before. Enter our workwear edit. Upgrade your 9-5 ‘drobe with versatile pieces that streamline your early morning rush – and take you seamlessly into post-work drinks, no changing required. Yeah, you’re welcome.

It needs to be comfy, keep you warm and keep you cool. It should be water resistant and sun safe. Most of all, you need to be able to get dressed (without checking your reflection) and know, without a doubt that it’s going to look damn good. Easy right?

If you’re one of the lucky ones heading to Splendour In The Grass next weekend, you’re going to need to arm yourself with all the right staples to get you through. Unfortunately the limited space which comes with any road tripping festival means you won’t be able to take your whole wardrobe (just in case).

Plus, let’s be honest, you’ll probably only end up getting changed once the whole time (because who really wants to have to get naked to shower?).

Here’s all you’ll really need to dominate your Splendour Bender this year (besides genius hiding spots in your car for prohibited alcoholic beverages).
