Tops

  • Choosing the best basic clothing will be more easier if you know that you should be guided by 'the wavier the better' principle. Bohemian peasant tops, tunics and caftans belong to the no.1. choices among the fans of this style. These in different patterns and designs offer a romantic and natural flair to your look. Ribbons and embroidery might crown the overall effect paired with chic and leather or other natural accessories.

    Dresses and Skirts

  • Summer is the best season to flash your colorful and versatile Boho chic look. However it seems that colder days are also perfect to wear maxi dresses and flowy skirts when paired with the proper cover-up.

    Due to the loose and wavy quality of the tunics, short or on the contrary floor-sweeping dresses you'll be able to sport them under stylish jackets and coats. Floral as well as larger or tiny patterns will reflect the 'love the world and nature' attitude of Hippies, the group from which the trend really originates.

    Mono-colored outfits would apparently lack creativity when there are so many tones and prints that can be sported on a single piece of material. Gypsy chic is synonymous for the Bohemian style, that's why it is enough to pair a tint of red, brown, black or white to jazz up your look.
