Here are all the secrets and tips for a breathtaking bohemian chic style.

Bohemian chic look: bet on the cut and the material

The success of a look usually depends on the cut and the material of the clothes. Whether for a daytime or evening event, the boho chic style has become essential. Adopt it without the slightest hesitation during festivities with family or friends, relaxed evenings, on vacation, and even for your romantic dates. Fresh and trendy, the bohemian style represents freedom and carelessness. In this search, choose each piece with finesse to be chic and elegant at all times. It is better to opt for a designer piece in order to sport the chic and original bohemian look.

Bohemian chic look: the materials to favor

To sport a total bohemian chic look, favor light materials, such as veil, lace, linen or even cotton: with the Pomandere collection, you have for example a wide range of clothing choices in a bohemian chic style. During the fall and/or winter season, you can also wear a beautiful navy coat over these materials that will add class and elegance to your chic and bohemian style.

For a boho chic style, say goodbye to tight fabrics, oppressive materials and close-fitting clothes. Comfort is the key word in the bohemian world. So favor natural materials such as linen, silk and cotton when you go to buy dresses, tops and even pants. In summer, you can also wear a cotton skirt with a classic V-neck tee on sunny days. This look can be worn with flat or heeled sandals.

In winter, a wide, dropped checkered coat worn with flared pants will complete your bohemian but still “so chic” look!

For accessories, opt for bags made of natural fibers such as raffia totes and jute tote bags. Black vegetable-tanned leather and camel are always at the forefront in this style category.

Wear loose clothes, such as loose dresses, loose t-shirts, shorts with bows, or even sleeveless blouses. Also bet on vaporous and fluid type clothes. For cool autumn evenings, opt for XXL cardigans, wide-sleeved sweaters or virgin wool cardigans. Chunky knit wool sweaters have been a favorite of the jet set and image consultants lately. Contrary to popular belief, the bohemian look can be worn in summer as well as in winter.

In addition, you can combine clothes reserved for the warm season such as airy tops, light dresses with oversized coats and thigh high boots in winter. Prefer clothes with an asymmetrical cut for a successful boho chic style. Long asymmetrical skirts and sleeveless tops of different lengths are essential pieces for a bohemian look. Wear the cotton midi skirts with sandals in the summer, and opt for pretty boots in the winter. You will no longer have to store your light clothes in the closet when the cold arrives!

Instead of wearing a classic blouse in spring, choose a top with ruffled armholes. This shade will help you sport the bohemian chic look wonderfully. Simple, light and at the same time very trendy, you just have to choose the model you like. It can be worn at work as well as at the beach. Choose it in peach or orange color for maximum freshness.

The striped or floral kimono is a must have in a bohemian chic dressing room. And fortunately, they are back in force this summer. Note that you can wear it with or without the belt. Pair it with linen and viscose trousers, a shift dress or shorts to tie at the waist on sunny days. For your chic evenings, wear this outfit straight from Japan with a wide jumpsuit.

You can also set your sights on mohair and vegetable wool sweaters to keep you warm during the winter. Similarly, an elegant scarf made of natural materials will be perfectly suited to cooler seasons. Guaranteed success for a bohemian chic look at the forefront of refinement!

Boho chic colors and patterns

Equip your dressing room with clothing in natural colors and neutral tones such as white, nude, pink or even burgundy. These are the must haves for the next seasons of this year! In summer, warm colors such as yellow, green, orange are preferred. Same for blue and beige. In autumn and winter, sober colors such as black, brick red, purple and gray dominate.

Nothing like patterned clothes to best represent the bohemian style. However, we must not fall into excessive extravagance, even vulgarity. To be elegant with a bohemian look, it is best to opt for classic patterns such as stripes, friezes and floral prints. To avoid fashion faux-pas, combine a piece with marked patterns with a base in neutral colors. So, if you are wearing a Thai pattern or leopard print blouse, it is best paired with black linen pants or beige bow shorts.

Where to find bohemian-style designer pieces?

Have you finally decided to adopt the bohemian style on a daily basis? In your quest, opt for designer pieces to look chic at all times. Granted, these pieces are an investment, but they will serve you well throughout the seasons. Indeed, the bohemian style is timeless. The signature of a fashion house will also bring more finesse and elegance to your bohemian look.

You can go to the shops of official dealers to avoid counterfeits. Always bet on quality more than quantity when you go to make your purchases. Low-end pieces can give your look a “cheap” edge.

A few tips for a successful boho chic look

Even if the boho look seems simple to achieve, you have to be careful not to go overboard. Always be sure to harmonize your outfit as a whole, summer and winter alike.

Watch out for bohemian chic accessories!

If your look lacks enthusiasm, do not hesitate to add a pretty accessory, such as a braided belt, a gold-colored chain, or even multicolored bracelets. In autumn or winter, you can wear a black or camel hat to give more vitality and originality to your look. In your choice of accessories, do not forget that balance is a key element in the bohemian chic style.

If you love costume jewelry, the bohemian style is for you. Chain earrings, necklaces, bracelets and anklets are among the essentials. Feather-shaped pendants, rings adorned with natural stones as well as long pearl necklaces will be welcome. These accessories will spice up your outfit, but will also reveal your femininity. Note that the success or otherwise of your bohemian chic look is in the details.

In addition, do not hesitate to customize the pieces of your wardrobe. Give more intensity and dynamism to your clothes by printing original patterns. Add some Aztec patterns to a classic jacket or a perfecto at the back of the closet. Print floral designs on your favorite white tee. Why not put some fringe on your classic black skirt? Anyway, DIY remains your best ally in certain circumstances!

Bohemian chic hairstyle and makeup: key elements

Your make-up as well as your hairstyle will help you perfect your bohemian look. Whether you have long or short hair, adopt wavy hairstyles now. A little tousled, but at the same time worked, you can wear them on any occasion. Embrace simplistic hairstyles like loose ponytails and messy buns. For more originality, add some accessories to your hairstyle such as feathers, headbands, printed scarves. If you are a fan of braids, it's high time to let your imagination run wild. Nothing better than twisted hair for an impeccable hippie and bohemian style.

For a flawless boho look, you need to emphasize your look. Complement your look with smoky eyes, sculpted brows and glittery eyeshadow. Choose a light and natural foundation to camouflage your imperfections. Apply a small amount of blush to your cheeks for a healthy glow. Finish with a touch of gloss on your lips, it will bring even more shine and glitter.
