Boho Chic

Fashion is all about letting YOUR personality shine through creating personal style. Living in Southern California I am constantly torn on how to let my style show on my days off from work when I want to be comfy and casual. I think that dressing "Boho" is a great way to capture the fashionista spirit and still be comfortable.

My interpretation of how to wear Boho chic includes the following items:

• Knit hats
• Flowy maxi dresses
• Flowy shirts
• Floral or paisley prints
• Long scarves
• High waisted jeans
• Ripped Bell Bottoms
• Brown/Tan/Luggage booties
• Fringe
• Vests
• Ponchos or Ruanas
• Seventies frames in gold or rose gold and brown gradient lenses
• Big Hoop earrings
• Layers and layers of bangles
• Long beaded "rosary" looking necklaces
• Long, wavy "beach" hair

These celebs look amazing

Kim boho'd up a rather conservative outfit. The hat and scarf give her blazer a whole new look.

Nicky's Hat and booties also Boho up a quite classic ensemble. I love that she is carrying a Birkin bag!

Nicole is one of three women who define Boho Chic (Kate Hudson and Vanessa Hudgeons are the other two). Nicole's personal style is ecclectic and fun. I love her hat, ruana and fringe booties.

Vanessa is wearing accesories that dress up a jeans and tee ensemble. Her booties and hair style tie her look together.

Hello Seventies! Rachel Zoe...head to toe Boho.

And then there is me...

I LOVE my knit cap for lazy days. I don't have to do my hair. And big earrings and glasses keep me from looking like a boy!

Rachel Zoe

To this day, my dream job is to be a stylist like Rachel Zoe. Watching
her show, The Rachel Zoe Project, is like I am living vicariously
through Rachel, Taylor and Brad. There are not many stylists that get
to that level. And I think I was too scared to actually pursue that
career.
I love the things that they obsess about and I have found myself
falling in love with styles and different fabrications that I am not
normally drawn to. Rachel was wearing a Missoni tunic on the second or
third episode and I am dying to find a comparable piece. Rachel is
obsessed with really high heels and I am obsessed too. The scenes of
Paris fashion week had me so green with envy, especially when she was
trying on the shoes. I died. Haha.
Fur!!! I have to have a vest or jacket. Seriously. Real or faux
whatever comes first! Sorry Peta but I need a real piece once in my
life. She was wearing an incredible white knee length jacket that
would make my wardrobe! I may have to break down and buy a vest from
her QVC collection. I will let you know if I do!
If you haven't watched an episode I highly recommend it. You will have
to catch a marathon on Bravo or rent it from iTunes.
