BOHO


Another look that is pretty easy to recreate and that I like to experiment with is Boho.

That's short for 'Bohemian' and has an 'earthy' and 'organic' look and feel. The best places to find pieces for your Boho look are:

  • Antique stores
  • Local vintage shops
  • Used clothing stores
I also love the Boho look because it's COMFY! I also like that this look can be achieved with very little money and it supports local businesses.BTW...did I mention that it's comfy?  ;)



How to get the Boho Look:

  • Loose, flowy layers
  • Earthy colors like forest green, brown, and calm shades of blue
  • Shapes like sea shells, flowers, and curly ques defiinitely give off a Boho vibe
  • Feminie braids
  • Knitted accessories
  • Comfy shoes 



Make it YOURS!   Ways I like to make it mine is to add a few 'glam' touches such as adding a fur vest and lots of silver bangles.

Another thing I like to explore with this style is homemade accessories such as knitted hats, scarves, and beaded jewelry.
Where and How Much $$

Fur Vest       Forever 21           $10  (Clearance rocks!)
Sun Dress    Wal-mart             $10
Boots          Mom's closet        FREE!!
Bangles       Gifts                   FREE!!
Necklaces    Bottom of drawer  FREE!!

PS...I found the necklaces in an old jewelry box that I had packed away in the basement. I got these when I was really little. When I dug them out, it was like having brand new jewelry!

Here's to unlocking YOUR closet's potential!

Love, Lael
