This High Street Brand Is Our One-Stop-Shop Ahead Of Festival Season
You missed out on Primavera, and weren't quick enough for Glastonbury, but this summer is still just getting started when it comes to festival season - and what that means is many, many outfits. Perhaps your wardrobe is already overflowing with crochet, denim, fringe and cowboy hats. If not, one high street retailer has everything you need: John Lewis.
John Lewis has always been a go-to for winter coats and comfortable jeans but perhaps not for its gig-worthy 'fit potential...Until this summer. AND/OR, which is just one of the retailer's in-house ranges, has everything you need for a very successful festival season, from versatile co-ords that can also double as grid-worthy holiday outfits to throw-on-and-go dresses that would clean up at a slightly more relaxed festival like Wilderness.
In fact, in terms of pieces that can do the main stage justice as well as your main girls' holiday, AND/OR really couldn't be any better. First up, its co-ords. The Amalfi set is a personal favourite of Team Grazia , with a blue-and-white print that brings to mind the Mediterranean. The Amalfi Scarf Top could be paired with cargo shorts at Glasto, but also with the matching trousers the next time you're headed for a beach club. The Crochet Beach Vest, similarly, would look bang on trend with a cool and comfy pair of Bermudas (AND/OR's denim version has the below-the-knee hemline you're looking for).
Longer dresses aren't usually the best idea for a field that could become a mud pool at the slightest drop of rain but if the forecast is dry, and you want a change from micro silhouettes, AND/Or's Milos Maxi Beach Dress would look fun with retro trainers, beaded necklaces and a baseball cap to protect your forehead. 1.

Massive solid green wall put up around beautiful Cardiff park to stop people getting in
A massive solid green wall has been built surrounding a Cardiff city centre park. A fencing area has gone up around Blackweir Fields in the run-up to music festival Blackweir Live. Photos of the park show the wall surrounding a large part of the fields, which is where the series of music gigs will take place this summer. Blackweir Live will see names such as Noah Kahan, Alanis Morissette, and Stevie Wonder appear on stage at Blackweir Fields over a number of days in June and July. Kings of Leon were the first artist announced as part of the Blackweir Live events, which Depot Live and Cuffe and Taylor are behind. But it was sadly confirmed that the American band had to pull their Cardiff gig after frontman Caleb Followill sustained an injury. In recent months concerns have been raised about the potential for large-scale gigs on Blackweir Fields with park users citing the impact it could have on access to green space and grassroots sport. You can read more about this here. The first Blackweir Live gig will take place on Friday, June 27, with American singer-songwriter Noah Kahan taking centre stage. Cardiff Council was asked to comment on the installation of the wall. Here are the photos of the green wall surrounding Blackweir Fields in Cardiff:

Music icon supports Kneecap after calls for band to be axed from Glastonbury
Kneecap rapper Liam O hAnnaidh, 27, is due to appear at Westminster Magistrates' Court on Wednesday amid calls for his band to be removed from the 2025 Glastonbury line-up Liam O hAnnaidh and his Kneecap bandmates have received support from music legend Johnny Marr amid claims of a private and confidential letter being sent to Glastonbury bosses urging them to remove the Irish rap trio from the 2025 line-up. Rapper O hAnnaidh, who performs under the name Mo Chara, was charged by postal requisition over the alleged display of a Hezbollah flag at a gig at the O2 Forum in Kentish Town, north London, in November last year. The 27-year-old is due to appear at Westminster Magistrates' Court on June 18. Over the weekend, Love Music Hate Racism and Toddla T, husband of former Radio 1 DJ Annie Mac, blasted reports of an alleged letter signed by 30-plus "music industry individuals" calling on Glastonbury bosses to ban Kneecap from performing at the Somerset festival later this month. The Smiths legend Johnny Marr has joined the group's growing list of supporters ahead of O hAnnaidh's court date on Wednesday. In a statement shared on social media, the iconic guitarist said he respects artists "who use their platform to speak out against injustice" and called for an "end to the atrocities and a free Palestine." His statement in full reads: "After learning that calls have been made for Kneecap to be censored during their Glastonbury set, I think it's important that I make my own position clear. "I've played Glastonbury many times and the festival has always had a political aspect. It was founded as a place of free expression and political activism and it's a fact that I agreed to play there with The Smiths in 1984 purely because to do so at the time was a political act. "We are living through very troubling times, but for anyone who's been interested in me or my music over the last 40 years, I feel like my political stance has always been very clear. "Oppression fears artistic expression. I respect all musicians who use their platform to speak out against injustice, who promote compassion and equality and give voice to the voiceless. I stand with my audience and fellow musicians who call for an immediate end to the atrocities and a free Palestine. Johnny Marr." On Friday, Kneecap named the legal team which will defend band member O hAnnaidh against the terror charge. He will be represented by a team that includes Gareth Peirce, solicitor for WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange during his fight against US extradition, and Rosalind Comyn, who has represented Extinction Rebellion protesters in court. His legal team also includes Darragh Mackin from Phoenix Law, Brenda Campbell KC, Jude Bunting KC and Blinne Ni Ghralaigh KC. Mr Mackin was the solicitor for Sarah Ewart, whose successful legal challenge helped to usher in the decriminalisation of abortion in Northern Ireland, while Ms Campbell was the defence barrister in the collapsed case against Seamus Daly, who was accused of murdering people in the IRA bomb attack of 1998 in Omagh. Mr Bunting acted for non-profit company Liberty in the Stansted 15's successful conviction appeal after they broke into Stansted Airport to stop a plane deporting people to Africa, which was a case Ms Ni Ghralaigh also worked on. In an Instagram post the group said: "The British establishment is conducting a campaign against Kneecap which is to be fought in Westminster Magistrates Court… We are ready for this fight. We are proud to have such a strong legal team with us." Mr Mackin told the PA news agency: "It is difficult to comprehend a case of greater international importance in recent years. Kneecap has played an unrivalled role in standing up for those without a voice in Gaza. They speak truth to power when others shy away. "It is a great privilege to be instructed alongside my colleagues to defend the important principle of freedom of expression, in the pending battle before the London Court." In May, the Metropolitan Police said Kneecap were being investigated by counter-terrorism police after videos emerged allegedly showing the band calling for the deaths of MPs and shouting "up Hamas, up Hezbollah". They apologised to the families of murdered MPs but said footage of the incident had been "exploited and weaponised". They also said they have "never supported" Hamas or Hezbollah, which are banned in the UK. In 2024, the band released an eponymous film starring Oscar-nominated actor Michael Fassbender which is a fictionalised retelling of how the band came together and follows the Belfast group on their mission to save their mother tongue through music. Formed in 2017, the group, made up of O hAnnaidh, Naoise O Caireallain and JJ O Dochartaigh, are known for their provocative lyrics and merchandise as well as their championing of the Irish language. Their best-known tracks include Get Your Brits Out, Better Way To Live, featuring Grian Chatten from Fontaines DC, and 3Cag.
