What's so cool about Boho Dresses? I mean, they're funky and bohemian and totally cool. They come in different styles - from skirts to pants, short to long sleeves, halters to dresses. They're made of different fabrics - silk, rayon, cotton, wool, etc. They come in different colors - from lime green to fuchsia to black.
There is a definite hippy aspect to the boho style of dressing. You can mix and match with other clothing pieces you already own to create your own funky wardrobe. I'm sure you have a great big trunk of vintage clothes in your basement that never got worn because they are too cute or just out of style. Well, now it's time to treat yourself to some new items!
If you love boho dresses and have a closet bursting at the seams with them, then you should really consider starting a collection of your own! That way you can accessorize perfectly with the pieces you wear and give each outfit an individual flair. Boho dresses are all about bright, rich colors - think deep plumy pinks, soft silks, fiery reds, and golds and copper blues. So for starters, you could begin with a beautiful red wrap dress - the perfect size and in the perfect color to go with your current wardrobe.
Then get some bright pinks and purples in solid styles. Get some of those gorgeous beige, cream, and sky blue Boho skirts in varying sleeve lengths and necklines. Also, some Boho pants in bold cuts and great, wide leg openings will add an extra punch of color to your boho ensemble. For footwear, rhinestone ballet flats are a must, as well as some gorgeous, sheer sandals in soft pastels. Add any of these stunning accessories to your already fabulous boho dresses and you'll have the exact look you want.
A little black dress is the perfect match for many of these accessories, as it flows beautifully and is easy to maintain. This timeless piece is always a safe bet when you're trying to create a trendy, chic, and funky style. You could pick up a cute little black dress from one of those online boutiques - like Baby Graziella or Babyliss - that's made from 100% cotton and has an adorable, embroidered, tie-dyed bodice. One great thing about this style of dress is that it works equally well with a fitted tank top or loose cotton tee. A fun accessory to add to this style of dress is a colorful jewelry, such as a rhinestone necklace, earrings, or a bangle bracelet.
The key to wearing hippie dresses or any of the other chic bohemian dresses is to pair them with accessories that are in a contrast color. For example, if you want to add some bright splashes of color to your bohemian dresses, try wearing a bold bracelet or bold, striped, or solid necklace around your neck. Or, go for a loud print that will add pop to your outfit. A vintage rhinestone pin on the collar of your shirt is another eye-catching accessory to pull together your bohemian clothes and create a bold style statement. For a really funky look, pair your bold outfit with a chunky bracelet.
Another way to create the bohemian look is to wear a beautiful, bold, and floral contrast maxi dress paired with cute, loose fitting jeans, a sleek leather belt, and maybe even a baby bump! These cute, flirty pants will create the perfect match for a bohemian dress. Pair a simple dress with a pretty floral maxi dress and you'll have the perfect spring or summer look. Wear a bright lime green dress with a simple belt, and you're creating an ethnic Indian or Mexican look. A vintage floral print with a rich orange hue is also quite popular for spring and summer.
There are several other styles that can be paired with these hippie and flowery bohemian dresses. For example, dresses with ruffles, layers, and embellishments in rich jewel colors are great for adding flair and pizzazz. Also, it's best to avoid long, straight styles for these types of dresses as they tend to emphasize the thin lines and structure of a wedding dress. Long flowing lace, wide belts, and other fun accessories can help to create the perfect classic-and-timeless wedding dress.
