Can anybody give me fashion advice/tips on the boho look?

Please could somebody give me some advice and fashion tips on how to create the boho look. I am 15 years old and i have shoulder length brown hair and side fringe (if this helps!). I live in the UK so I can't shop in american shops so if you send links please could you make sure that they are for UK shops such as New Look, Topshop.. ect..





If you have any ideas for hairstyles and accessories please feel free to add those in aswell! (my hair is straight and quite thin).





Thankyou (: xCan anybody give me fashion advice/tips on the boho look?
Well I'd say clothing wise wear like loose/flowing floral print tops/dresses which are in quite like muted tones, stay away from bright colours and opt for darker colours in general.


e.g.

Topshop are generally very good for floral prints





For the bottom I would say


-Thick woolen tights in a neutral colout such as black, navy, brown or even a dark green. these could be worn with like a longer top/dress depending on how confident you are with your shape.


-If you want to wear the tights with a shorter top you could team it with dark wash denip shorts e.g. http://www.topshop.com/webapp/wcs/stores鈥?/a>


- Another option is dark wash denim, I would say skinnies look best with more flowing top but flared can also be very boho so whichever you feel most comfortable in.





Shoe wise i would say that slouchy ankle boots are quite boho, higher boots are also nice though and sometimes better for when it gets cold. I would say that leather or a brown leather effect looks best.

The most boho boot on the other hand is the fringed ankle boot.

for summer -http://www.asos.com/Jessica-Simpson/Jess鈥?/a>


bracelets and necklaces are nice in wooden varieties or in a gold/brass colour.





Gillets/waistcoats are also rather boho and are good for winter.

Hair wise boho is usually quite hassle free and natural, although as you have straight hair i would say maybe wet it before you go to bed and plait it, then sleep on the plaits that way you will get wavy hair which is quite boho. Also plaits like a french plait at the front of the hair or two smaller plaits fromt the front pulled back and cliped together at the back of the head is quite cute.








Fringed bags, big bangles and long necklaces all add to that boho look too:

Just look at any pictures of Sienna Miller from about 4-5 years ago. She should point you in the boho direction...
