Boho Chic

With Coachella been and gone (sad face), Glastonbury coming up and music festival season in full flow, there is no better time than now to get into the festival fashion spirit. As spring...springs and summer shines bohemian is back with it's beautiful flowing movements and romantic themes. With seventies, patchwork, vintage and hippy influences this summer they will be blending into one to create the perfect boho chic look. Light weight fabrics and loose and floaty fabric are ideal for summer, holidays and of course music festivals so carry on reading to check out how I did it.



Sheer fabrics are my favourite fashion piece for Spring/Summer and of course it screams bohemian; the material is so easy to just throw on with anything and depending on the pattern it's so easy to dress up or down. I got this beautiful Kimono last year from Boohoo and definitely got my wear out of it. Boho trends always seem to come back in the summer so this is a great piece to keep in your wardrobe all year round and whip it out when the sun comes out. When dressing a piece that's really floating it's really important to keep it as your statement piece and work around around it when accessorising. Taking colours from the main pattern and using them is a great way of mixing and matching without clashing too much. This simple top is also from Boohoo and such a great cover up piece but also really easy to manipulate as it's so light so you can belt it, tuck it or tie it. Another piece that I love to wear in the summer is these sheer bicycle type legging; they are clearly see through so if you are wearing them with a top then you should probably put some pants on but they also look really great peaking out under skirts, shorts and dresses. They are also ideal if you don't really like your legs so instead of wearing long shorts or leggings in the hot sun you can wear these while still being comfortable and looking sexy too.



When I think of music festivals I think jewellery so I went all out ; if you can't bling up in summer then when can you. The accessories just really pull the outfit together and helps all the colours blend together so when accessorising this summer don't be afraid to go all out. Finally the shoes, admittedly I did steal these from my mumma but with fringing being so in now I couldn't resist teaming these bad boys with this look as I really think it puts the 70's cherry on top of the cake. Flat shoes are of course the best shoes for music festivals but these boots only have a slight heel and super padded which make them so comfy but its also really easy to get your hands on a flat pair of fringed boots which are just as effective. What are your go to Bohemian pieces this summer?
