Create a Boho Chic Look

Welcome back to another weekly fashion post. Each week, I share some ideas and inspiration to keep your style looking on-trend. Typically I throw in some pictures of what I'm wearing (scroll down for this week's), to show you that it's all real fashion ideas that can be applied to the actual clothes hanging in your own closet! This week we are going to demystify Boho Chic.

What IS Boho Chic you ask? Well, Boho is short for Bohemian, which can mean: non-conformist, eccentric, offbeat, artistic, exotic, free-spirit, hippy, gypsy and more. We already know about the Chic part! This is probably one of the hardest looks for me to pull off. I am much too "type-A" and my wardrobe is full of one too many traditional pieces, for this look to ever be my signature style.  But that doesn't mean I can't incorporate a little Boho Chic magic into my everyday wardrobe.

You can search Pinterest and Polyvore for ideas. There's lots of floaty garments, neutral colors, fringe and bracelet stacks. Natural beach waves, seem to be the Boho Chic hairstyle. You could even throw in a messy braid for even more authenticity. This one may be a stretch, but I love this great scarf that Soft Surroundings gifted me at a recent grand opening. I thought the tassels and the colors led to a Boho feel. Paired with a pendant necklace and neutral shoes, my simple Aventrua top and dark skinnies get a Boho upgrade.
