What is the Boho style all about?🧐
A style that defies codes
The bohemian trend is part ofa casual and feminine stylewith ample fabrics and fluid cuts. Clothes are usually softly colored, printed with floral, and have ethnic or vintage patterns. The boho style favorsnatural fabrics, light, supple, and comfortableto wear,such as cotton, linen, or muslin. Eventually, the pieces are often embellished withlace, embroidery, ruffles, or subtle bangs.
Among the boho dress code, the must-haves are a long dress, a denim jacket, a knit vest, a crochet top, and the famous kimono that perfectly completes the summer outfit. Also, accessories such asIndian jewelry, scarves, or handbagsadd on to the final touch.
The hair and makeup are also essential to achievea total Bohemian look. The number one rule is to always go for a natural look by leaving the hair free and wavy and opting for subtle and nude makeup.
Lastly, theboho style isn't just about clothes: it's a state of mind, a culture that claimsfreedom, sensitivity, and creativity. It expresses this through clothes that do not constrain the body or change the usual dress codes.
The wedding and the Boho chic outfit
We often embracethe chic bohemian styleduring a unique wedding event that combinescomfort with elegance, more sophistication with a casual and flowing basis. We add a few stylish notes now and then.
The fabrics andfits areincredibly refined, pleated, creped, embroidered, ruffled, closely buttoned, draw-stringed, belted, fitted, asymmetrical, V-necked, and so much more.We also bet on the superimpositions by accumulating several clothing layers, for instance, a foggy blouse with a long knitted vest and a denim jacket.
The lacegives a refined side to the outfit by playing on transparency and delicacy. We often use silk and velvet pieces for the boho chic style, for instance, a velvet tie on the collar or a silk kimono.
Regarding color,we remain natural, excluding white to avoid shadows on the bride. Colors such as water green, dark green, sapphire blue or turquoise, red, orange, beige, ochre, and brown, are perfect for a bohemian wedding outfit.
To add a little pep to your outfit, you can include someleather, imitation leather, or imitation suede elementssuch as a jacket perfecto, a clutch, a braided belt, a skirt, or fringed shoes. Pick them in shades of beige and brown.
If you're not very comfortable with the bohemian look, you can always choose towear just one key elementto match this theme: a fringed shawl, a complete, asymmetrical vest, or a denim jacket.
As you can see, if comfort is an absolute criterion, make sure youstay sufficiently elegantbecause this is an exceptional event. Casual doesn't necessarily mean uncluttered. It's all about subtlety and the way you wear your clothes. So think of a sophisticated touch if your outfit is too relaxed. Alternatively, consider the wild touch to break the too-wise side. As a general rule, you should avoid tight and flashy outfits.
Lastly, don't hesitate to ask the bride and groom formore details about the chosen theme: tones and materials to choose from, printed patterns, or plain colors to be more harmonious in the wedding photo album.
The most beautiful dresses to wear at a Boho wedding👗
The long dress is particularly adapted for the bohemian wedding. However, if you prefer a shorter version, or if the wedding takes place in the middle of the summer heat wave, it is entirely possible to choose a short dress.
Whatever the situation, opt for a vaporous dress with worked fabric and a beautiful finishing because the minor details will make a difference.
Among the models ofbohemian wedding dresses, you have the following choices:
- The long dress with split:ideal for the summer; it will enhance your legs.
- The sleeveless dress with ruffles :sexy and feminine, it is very trendy this year.
- The halter dress with prints :glamour guaranteed, it will reveal your pretty silhouette while staying in the theme.
- The dress with long puffy sleeves :comfortable and casual; it is the essence of the bohemian spirit.
- The asymmetrical dress :It brings a rebellious and original side to your appearance.
You can adapt the models according to the theme, the weather, and your morphology. Neutral or pastel colors are preferred.Floral or ethnic printscan be very trendy. However, we advise you to start with a plain color (unless otherwise advised by the bride and groom) to avoid the well-known colorful procession effect.
A kimono or a pretty denim jacket will go perfectly with a dress and will prevent you from being cold at the wedding party.
Boho skirts: which ones to choose for the wedding?💃
As for the skirts, favor thelong skirtexcept for summer weddings, but there are also numerous aesthetic short models.
- The long skirt with ruffles:ideal to dance like a bohemian.
- The split skirt:perfect for showing off your pretty legs.
- The asymmetrical wrap skirt:this one will attract all the glances.
- The long pleated skirt:chic and comfortable.
- The short brown suede skirt:the flagship of the chic bohemian style.
If you are not too much into "skirts", the combination with patterns is an excellent alternative for a wedding. Opt for a flowing flare (flared at the bottom) or cropped (short) model.
The shoesto choose for a Bohemian wedding👢
Shoes do not need to be neglected to complete yourBohemian wedding guest look. First of all, you should choose comfortable shoes, because it would be a shame not to dance due to a sore foot. For instance, flat shoes or pumps don't matter, as long as you are comfortable enough on the dance floor! You can use the ethnic touch and fancy ornaments...
- Ethnic flat or heeled sandals(African, Indian, Mexican, and Greek) decorated with leather bangs, braids, mixed straps, jewelry, and so on.
- Short or slender Spartanswith more or less thin rising flanges.
- The Espadrilles, flat braided straw sole or compensated fabric, or jute with embroidered patterns or beads.
- Cowboy boots, Santiago type, leather or suede, short or half-long with a pointed toe.
- Suede or imitation suede bootswith or no bangs for winter weddings, combined with a jacket and a bag.
Which Boho hairstyles to wear at a wedding?💇♀
Remember, the Bohemian soul loves movement. For hairstyles, it's the same thing. Leave yourhair free, or take out your curling iron to make pretty natural waves. Afterward, you can make ahalf braided tailor wear a headband or a bandeau.
- Half braided tail on wavy hair
- Hair braided with a fishtail French twist, loosely woven at the side or back
- A floral pattern headband on raised hair
- A headband with a pendant on free hair
We still advise you to avoid the flower crown reserved for the bride unless you are a bridesmaid. Nevertheless, some discreet flowers will be able to embellish your hairstyle.
Bohemian wedding:how to apply makeup?💄
Opt forsoft, natural, pinkish, or even nude shades.
The foundation:
Choose a fluid foundation, as discreet as possible, close to your natural complexion or tone. Fix it with a loose powder. On the cheekbones, add a small stroke of pink blush for a healthy glow finish.
The lips:
Above all, avoid wearing flashy lipstick. The idea is to bring out thenatural shadeof the lips. A pink or even coral gloss or lipstick will be perfect.
The eyes:
A small touch of mascara on the lashes and a line of eyeliner is enough, but you can also use an iridescent or beige eye shadow if you wish.
