Burning Man Shopping List - a list by MeganInMunich

Options for This Page

About this list:

For my first year at Burning Man I wore jean cut-offs and tank tops and ended up under a shelter made of plastic garbage bags. Why suffer such a learning curve? Steal my ideas, gain from my experience. Countdown to burn time. Time to start shopping! (2009: still updating three years later!)

Opaque Tights in 20 Colors

First to recommend

Description

You can wear pants at night or you can wear thick warm tights in awesome colors that go with your boots and hot pants. Do I need to keep connecting the dots?

Hanes 3-Pack Athletic Tank Top

First to recommend

Description

Around mid-week you'll love having a clean shirt to slip into after your shower. Buy a few three packs of these for those moments in between costume changes when you're lounging around in camp. They're 100% cotton and completely burnable, why bother with laundry?

Hanes 6 Pk. Cushion Crew Socks

First to recommend

Description

Socks?? Yes. Not everything you need for Burning Man has sequins or batteries. Underneath those sexy boots you're gonna need clean socks to keep your feet in one piece. I go for two pairs a day: one for the boots and one for bed. Leave your 'normal' socks at home, socks that have been on the playa will never be the same.Save yourself the hassle. Wear 'em and then burn 'em.

Each year on the Playa is a step forward in the evolution of glow-light gear. From flashlights to glowsticks, to cool neon, to LEDs and now...LED Mushroom lights.

Put this on your that and strut in it. (via Popgadget)

Pleaser Electra Thigh-High Boots

Description

These thigh-high Wonder-Woman-turned-stripper boots would look fabulous when worn while riding a gold bicycle across the playa. Be sure to add a cape for extra effect.

Why? This is one of those 'why not' moments in case you haven't noticed. Don't let 'em ever make you take off your Stetson, cowboy!

For the those pressed for time on the playa (and also for those who just never learned how), when you just can't be bothered to spend 20 minutes on your face, here's a way to do those evening eyes in five.

Evian Travel Trio

2 people recommended this item

Description

It's not easy being green. You're allowed the occasional slip. Set the teeth of those self righteous hippies on edge by eschewing the spray bottle in favor of this high brow mister from Evian (after all they did show up in a gas-guzzling bus now didn't they?).

Stay cool and be cool at the same time sister.
