TRENDWATCH: Boho-Chic

Boho-chic is a style of fashion inspired by bohemian and hippie influences. It has been seen since the early 90's and has repeatedly re-surfaced in varying guises. Check out some of our boho-chic pieces here at Blackbird Attic:

027
This adorable cropped top is the perfect introduction to a boho style! Pair it with anything high-waisted, add plenty of bangles, and slip on a great pair of clogs or wedges. Scroll down to see my favorite Blackbird Attic pair! (Street Flower brown velvet top; $12, L)

023
This over-sized jacket from Alafoss is neck to calves boho/nordic-chic I suggest wearing it open for an effortlessly chic look. The piece was made in Iceland from 100% pure virgin wool.
(ALAFOSS Icewool Vintage 70's coat; $45, M)

When it comes to boho, accessories are not to be overlooked. Consider adding pieces that reflect the same trend. I chose this fringe satchel to achieve a cohesive look. The bag is a soft, high quality, rich chocolate brown. Wear it cross-body or off your shoulder.
(60's Suede Fringe Bag; $18)

Here are some more options to take boho-chic to the next level.
002
The first piece is handcrafted by Toony Jewelrey. Long necklaces work best with boho looks and I really like the handmade look of this one (Beaded tassle necklace; $22) Next is another beaded necklace, also handmade with alternating stone and wooden beads. The boho in this one is so easily detectable. Consider matching  pieces that are less over-the-top bohemian looking with those that epitomize the trend. This keeps the outfit interesting and it lets you flaunt your creativity (Beaded necklace, on sale $5). Lastly the black braided fringe belt would work well with a maxi skirt, or a long dress ($10).

Lastly, these heels will pull any boho-chic look together! (Mossimo Brown Woven Heels; $13, size 7.5)
