New Clothes from Free People

I've just been browsing some of the new arrivals at Free People and thought I would share a few of them with you. As you can probably tell I do love Free People, their take on Boho fashion is one that I love.

Here's a few looks I'm crushing on at the moment.

Shibori Magic Buttondown

I love the look of this shirt and it works beautifully with a pair of jeans for a casual look.   It would also look great thrown over a bathing suit as a cover up which makes it very versatile for Spring and Summer.

Another item I'm loving at the moment is this one -

Justine Dress

I love this dress, it's very feminine and definitely encapsulates Boho Chic in my mind.   Worn by itself this gauzy cotton mini dress has crochet detailing and with the plunging open back and tie aroun the neck and works very well for the beach babe look.

In summer this would look great to throw over your bathing costume when you leave the beach to grab lunch or a drink in a cafe.

I also think it would be great worn as an oversized top over a pair of cropped skinny jeans or printed straight legged (boho inspired) pants.

The seemingly effortless shapeless fit of the dress actually helps to accentuate your figure really well and I love what feels like a generous abundance of material used in it - it gives it a feeling of luxury :)

Printed Wide Legged Pant

I also love the range of printed wide legged pants that are available at the moment, I particularly love the ones above from Free People.   I love the look which is also available in a black and white version that I also like (very hard to choose between the two).   I also like the fact that these pants don't have an elastic waist like a similar looking pant did that I tried on the other day.   These wide legged pants have a hook and eye closure with a zip and I think it just makes them sit a lot nicer on your waist.

This summer you really are going to need some style of printed wide legged pants and if you don't like these then click the link anyway as Free People have plenty of others to choose from.

Well that's all for now, but whatever you're doing this week why not do it in style?

Boho Style

I love the Boho look and it certainly looks like being on fire again this summer, whether you wear dresses, trousers or skirts you can find your own boho style.

Let's have a look at a few different styles that embrace the gypsy, free spirit style that we call boho.

Boho Style Dress

This dress is like a cross between a long flowing boho dress coupled with the overdress style that has been popular.   Look at the necklace and shoes the model is wearing which really help to add to the boho style.   I'd be tempted to add a few bangles to one arm as well and a floppy hat.

Gorgeous Boho Top

Now I do love my jeans even though I also enjoy maxi dresses and the flowing boho dresses that are available this season.   This style shops how by choosing the right top you can even give your denim a boho feel to it.

Boho Printed Trousers with Black Crop Top

I love the range of printed trousers with the Boho feel that are available, they're lightweight and comfy while also looking great.   These trousers (above) are coupled with a black crop top, but you could pick out any of the colors in the print for a great look.   An aqua crocheted crop top that I was eyeballing the other day would look awesome with these trousers.

Of course you don't have to wear a crop top with these, longer tees are fine.   A great way of wearing these trousers is with a vest and a duster coat or kimono or even with a wind chaser style top.

Boho Style For Colder Months

Creating that Boho style that appears almost effortless to throw together is easy in summer and a lot of great looks can be created, but what happens as the cooler months roll in and late autumn turns into winter?

Well there's still lots of ways of creating a boho look, I've selected 9 pieces here which I'm going to talk about with you and show you ways in which you can use these (either the pieces themselves or as inspiration) to create lots of different looks.

Of course these pieces are just a few that I've found and you'll have your own pieces to use as well as jewelry and accessories to 'own your own look'.

I'd be very interested to hear your opinion on 'my picks' below in the comment section and to know if or how you'd incorporate any of them into your wardrobe for the upcoming season.

From Birdsnest you'll see I've selected both wide legged black pants as well as a black skirt and I think of these as cornerstone pieces for your Fall and Winter wardrobes. I couldn't resist adding the final item, a gorgeous top from Free People which I've fallen in love with. This top could be worn with either the skirt or pants and I absolutely love it although with the bare shoulders I'm aware that it may not be warm enough for some climates.

From Birdsnest I've included two different long vests which can be worn over skirt, pants, dresses etc to create that long floating line that really says Boho.   It also adds an extra layer which is very on-trend for winter fashions this year.

I've also included a hat as I think you need a good hat and I love the shape of the Jimmy Choo hat, although to be honest I'll probably be buying a different brand myself!   I think a fedora would look great, but chunky beanies are also a great look which can look great with Boho style and are also very on-trend this season.

The other two items I've added will go with a dress, pants or skirt and are about adding layers and warmth while keeping your style.   One of my favorite's is the Lola Contrast Gorilla Faux Fur Gilet from Missguided which is a very cool look for this winter as well as, I think, having some great Boho elements to it.   Next is the poncho which I would imagine is very warm if it's anything like the poncho I had last year (and it does look like it).   Ponchos are a great way of adding a touch of bohemian style to a costume so I just had to add it here.

So there you go if you want some Boho style this winter then hopefully I've given you some inspiration.
