Boho Beach
Beatrice Lessi
One of our favourite summer looks is coloured, layered, practical and fun – welcome to the boho beach. Boho Chic started in the 90s and reached its heights in 2005 with Kate Moss, Sienna Miller, and the Olsen twins in the US. Today the trend has become a classic and is particularly successful with off duty models, Coachella festival goers, Kardashian sisters, Victoria’s Secret Angels and beach goers.
Floaty, hippie influenced dresses and a lot of fun accessories signalise the look. Tassel bracelets, wooden pearls, fringes, wide-brimmed hats, belts, chunky jewellery, metal tattoos can all be used together. Here a recap of this summer’s boho inspirations.
Headpieces
From a simple leather string to full head jewellery, head decorations add a hippie touch to your beach look.
