Wear the Boho Dresses and look sophisticated

For a long time we have related the Bohemian aesthetic with those hippie looks that were worn in the 70s, however there is a way to wear garments such as boho dresses, to achieve a chic look.

What we like most about this style of clothing is that it is versatile, able to look completely different with sandals in summer and with boots in winter, if you are not related to the hippie looks, it is possible to completely change the sense of your outfits by adding specific pieces that will make you look sophisticated.

One of the contemporary exponents that made us fall in love with boho dresses was undoubtedly Vanessa Hudgens, who when the styling of the Coachella Festival was covered with bangs and flower crowns, the actress became the best dressed.

Taking the singer as a reference, but with a look of current trends, directing the outfits towards chic, she learns to create combinations like a fashion expert, elevating any look.

How to combine trendy Boho Dresses

Boho dresses are per se, garments that offer us different qualities, their silhouettes and cheerful prints are able to make us fall surrendered to their charms, one of the keys of fashionistas is to know with which pieces should combine others to get the most out of these and as mentioned above sometimes outfits like these dresses allow us to transform them depending even on the season of the year.

Coats, to create more sophisticated looks with boho dresses, add garments such as blazers, leather jackets or even synthetic fur coats, denim jackets with glitter fringe.

Accessorize differently, we know that the accessories we add to our looks make a big difference, so you should focus on those that balance the hippie style, for example high-heeled sandals with thin straps, ankle boots with extravagant or patent leather details, trendy bags, sneakers, etc. Hats are allowed but not the ones we usually find in the boho style, go for those with wide brims, with materials such as suede or suede, with more elegant silhouettes.

Combine contrasting colors and textures, while this is a basic principle when balancing a style, in boho dresses applies equally, experiment with outerwear with materials such as satin, sequins, to name a few.

Now, if we talk about the criteria to choose functional boho dresses, with this we mean that it will be easier to balance the hippie with the chic, take into account the following.

Consider the print, we know that the patterns of this style are usually irresistible, but if you are looking for the dress to be as versatile as possible, the ideal is to go for prints that are neutral colors, or otherwise extremely vivid.

The length is also important, so go for the midi or in case it is a light textile, wear a maxi dress.
