TO – 05/07 – can I call it Boho-chic inspired…?

Boho-chic is a fashion style drawing on various bohemian and hippie influences…

"Boho", an abbreviation of bohemian, style is a 70’s-inspired.
It’s an effortless style that’s all about being free-spirited and independent and is the perfect look for the transition from Winter to Spring and Summer to Autumn.

Think ethnic, earthy and eclectic, a mix of luxurious textures and contrasting, layered fabrics. Loose, unstructured skirts and tunics are often made from natural fabrics like linen and float cotton in organic colours and the best accessories tend to be chunky and made of wood, stone and leather. Preferably all three!

Popular components of this great look are skinny jeans and culottes layered with feminine smock tops and wrap dresses and leather, suede and fur gilets. Tunics worn over long layered skirts or jeans are often loosely belted and topped with vintage jewellery and multi-layered beads.

Accessories are a must... Express yourself with affordable accessories and details! Boho fashion doesn't have to be expensive. Instantly transform a pair of jeans and a white tunic shirt into a boho outfit with a brown leather hobo bag, ethnic embroidered scarf, gold and layered necklace, multiple bangle bracelets, gladiator sandal shoes and so on.
Do wear pieces that create a statement and that people will notice or even comment.

The great news is that nothing needs to match as such. Think relaxed, think individual and enjoy this go-anywhere at any age style!

One of the important things you'll have to remember when it comes to fashion is to always personalize a look to make it more YOU. So adjust boho fashion into your own liking and flair!
