1. Sock Game
Try adding socks to give your outfit a more boho, casual look. It's cute and it just might complete your outfit.

Nany's Klozet
I LOVE flower crowns. My Halloween costume always includes some kind of flower crown. Kate shows off her fabulous headband on her boho post to The Glitter Guide. I am in love! Very inspired for my next one.
The Glitter Guide
Make your own headband! If you ever tried them you know that scarf headbands are the very best. Here Christine from Hello Fashion shows us how to tie your own.

4. Floor Length Skirts 
Maxi skirts are just crotch-less yoga pants. They are so comfy! Comfort seems like a big key to boho. Try throwing on these ultra-comfortable looks. 

Nany talkes about wanting comfort when she talks about creating this look. and it still turned out very glam!
Nany's Klozet
Another look from Nany! Love her chiffon layered skirt.

5. Hat 
A wide brim hat is perfect for a boho look. 

Sara wears this hat a black wide-brim hat that looks so perfect with her blond hair. 

Sara Libby



  • Buy Extended Brim Clipperton on Free People here for $48.00 - $2.40 cash back.

Dress Corilynn
I wasn't sure I would find a boho look on Lace and Locks. But I was not disappointed. This look is beyond fabulous. Kim uses a bolt print dress and a big non-floppy hat to complete her look. 
Lace and Locks

6. Booties
So many of these outfits include ankle booties, especially designer. 

Leave it to Jules from Sincerely, Jules to pull of a chic look like this. I'm pretty sure this vest is from her look I featured in 10 Ways to Wear Jean Shorts

Here Jules doesn't use a traditional boho bold print. She wears a light chiffon dress with neutral colors.

Sincerely, Jules


In contrast. Here Nany's chiffon skirt has a bold tribal print.

Finally, here is Julia from Gal Meets Glam in a natural, mixed tribal print dress.

8. Or Making No-Print Pieces Rock. 
Boho can be simple and casual. But if you are wearing simple make sure to have boho accessories. 

What really makes Kilee's (from One Little Momma) outfit perfection is her sandals. Everything is boho. but the shoes made the look. 

One Little Momma
Alycia from Pillow Thought wears the first kimono in this post. Honestly an oversight. Kimonos are so boho, but kind of a short cut. I highly suggest them if you are new to boho world.

The best thing about a summer in jean shorts is that they are so easy! They are a classic summer look that goes perfect with no makeup and maybe a sunburn. 

Here we see Megan from Megan's Moda dressing her shorts in the classic i-dont-want-to-wash-my-hair hat, chucks, and a tee. Comfy and fast.

3. Chambray. 

I love chambray! Who doesn't? it's soft and versatile. 

I'm hesitant to wear it with denim because it's so "matchy-matchy." But Jessica from Tuula really pulls it off! Maybe it's time to give it a try.

4. Long Shorts. 

We all remember when "Bermuda" shorts were the hottest summer trend. While I'm thankful for that being over, I absolutely how Cara and Maureen wear them! 

Cara from Cara Loren went for a layered look. It's fun and boho. With that long sweater you almost need long shorts so people can see you are indeed wearing shorts.

6. The Long Short Look.

What happens if they can't see your shorts under your shirt. You don't want to look like you accidentally wore a tunic as a dress.

Here are a few solutions from The Style Editrix

1. Tuck it in. Here Ashley simply tucked in the front of her silk top in order to pair it perfectly with jean shorts.

7. Fancy Shorts. 

When I first saw Julie wearing cut-off jean shorts with heels. I was thinking she had completely missed the point. But after scrolling thru all the photos on the blog post my mind was changed. How chic!

Emily from Bows and Depos  pairs her cut-up jean shorts with a lacy top and blush pink blazer. and it is perfection. I would love this look for an outing in the summer. The lace and the shorts will keep you cool. The blazer pulling everything together will keep it classy.

8. Pockets out.

These cutoff-looking jean shorts don't rob the wearer of any pocket space. While some might think they look sloppy, this is one of my favorite summertime looks! They are easy to keep cool in and they are usually pretty comfortable. They kind of remind me of a skort trend I'm seeing more and more of these days.

Here is Julie from Sincerely, Jules looking chic and casual all in one outfit. The link for this look says "how to style an oversized blazer." Well done Julie!

10. Solid colors. 

If this post went into all the different colors jean shorts come in these days it would never end. So here are a few key pointers. 

White is hard to wear! (and not for the obvious reason). Since white highlights it's best to pair it with a big flowing top that is longer rather than shorter. 

Ashley from Ash N' Fashn rock white shorts on the beach!

Solid colors can also have more class. However, the crazier the color, the harder it is to look classy. 

Breanna from Chic Street Style shows us how to have class in the heat of the summer. Pair black shorts with a fun, breezy chiffon top. Great for a night out with friends!
