Electric Shock

With the rock festival season upon us, you want to look fabulous even when you’re: drunk/sleepless for 48 hours/dying to go for a pee alongside 10,000 people also queueing up for the one toilet in the arena. 

Here’s a little lifesaver kit from 1000 Volt for enjoying that exciting lineup (which, btw, includes Def Leppard, Björk and, most of all, Metallica.) 

Concert veteran Volters came up with a bagful of essentials like wet tissues (see above for toilet situation), a sleep mask, a Nescafe sachet for your coffee fix, and a Seltzer tablet for the headache due to all that noise and dancing.      

Head-banging not your cup of tea and you’d rather snuggle up with a nice book? They also design wonderfully quirky Oxe Moxie brand products like that bookmark shaped as (an ox?)  Combine it with a cushion from the same range, voila!, you’re all set for this summer.  Or set your ‘own’ agenda (as seen in style bible Monocle) and USB stick for the office geek in you.    

As for the hangover? With a badge saying ‘Take me to 1000 Volt’ pinned on your shirt, at least they’ll know where to take you after the party.
