Working the Bohemian Look

Bohemian clothes, jewellery and accessories are the perfect option for the summer months. From kaftans to beaded beach bags, head scarves to fabric flip flops, all of these light and comfortable clothes really help to capture the essence of summer. However, with the British summer as temperamental as it is, what's a girl to do if she wants to rock the look without freezing her socks off?

Many of the bohemian looks of summer are based around light, flimsy patterned materials which are obviously no use when the sun isn't shining. Accessories, however, can be an easy way to make your look a little more bohemian whilst still offering some warmth on those chillier days. Choosing brightly coloured beads and layering them over your favourite knitted cardigan adds instant hippie chic.

Big wide bangles, chunky rings and statement Indian style filigree earrings are other simple ways to bring your outfits up to date, without compromising on warmth or comfort. The ultimate in bohemian accessorising, however, has to be the slouch bag. Pick one adorned with bright, floral patterns and as many beads as you can find, or alternatively jazz up one of your own.

If you are looking for a new jumper dress, choose one with a folk-style knitted print or a floral design around the hem. If you'd rather stick to simple classics and go for a simple summer dress, then accessorise with a light floral print pashmina incorporating lots of bright colours. As for footwear, nothing says bohemian like a pair of sandals adorned with beads or sequins.

Though your style inspiration may come from the catwalk, there is no need to be paying designer prices for the trend. Head down to some of your favourite high street stores for some affordable treats. New Look has a collection of on trend designs to suit many tastes – check their website for a great range of clothes, accessories and summer shoes. Whether it's with a bag, pair of sandals or a few items of bold jewellery; be sure to embrace the bohemian in you this season.
