7 Boho Outfit Pieces and How To Style Them

We believe women should feel beautiful and comfortable, always, which is one reason why we deeply love boho style; it is remarkably unique and completely livable at the same time. Our boho clothing pieces are made with high-quality fabrics that are comfortable for all-day wear, flattering on every shape, and crafted with integrity so you can wear them with confidence. Discover our favorite boho pieces to add to your wardrobe, including plus size boho clothing, and how to style them for a variety of boho outfit ideas you can reach for on any occasion. Even if you’re wondering, “What is boho style?,” you will still love these practical, special pieces. 

 

1. A Printed Kimono

A printed kimono can turn a classic combo such as jeans and a white tee into a boho outfit instantly. That’s how we love to style this romantic drape front kimono. It has all the features a good boho outfit needs: flowy movement, relaxed layers, and a pretty print. Simply throw it on with your favorite jeans and a creamy tank or tee for a chic daytime look. 

Don’t forget to pack this essential layer when you’re traveling as well. It will be the perfect addition to a head-to-toe linen look for roaming cobblestone streets or beachside shops. Just picture how perfect this boho trend will look over this natural linen top paired with these pleated cuff shorts and a pair of tan sandals. 

Yet another way to style a printed kimono is as a beach cover-up. This floral print kimono, in particular, would look divine over a black one-piece bathing suit. It offers just enough coverage while keeping you cool. Top this look off with a sun hat and take to the sand.

2. A Draped Blouse

If you prefer pants to dresses, you can still achieve a bohemian look quite easily. There are so many beautiful blouses and plus size blouses with enough boho flair to make a cute outfit, whether paired with jeans or trousers. Let this layered scarf top shine by pairing it with white jeans or natural linen pants. The silhouette alone is enough to call it boho chic, but the ornate paisley print will turn heads in the very best way. 

For a brighter take on the paisley print, perfect for summer, reach for this tie-front top that pops thanks to vibrant orange and yellow hues. The billowy flare sleeves add just the right boho touch. Complement the flowing nature of the sleeves with cropped wide-leg jeans on the bottom. The mid-rise will be just the right proportion to suit the tie-front on the top. Complete the look with heeled or flat sandals for a backyard party or ankle boots for a transitional look. 

If prints aren’t true to your style, a flowy blouse in a solid neutral shade is just as bohemian. Take this romantic bell sleeve top, for instance, in crisp white linen. It doesn’t fall short where beautiful boho details are concerned, thanks to billowy sleeves and lace insets.  


3. A Maxi Dress

A maxi dress is the perfect bohemian piece for any occasion. Whether you are running errands, hosting a backyard BBQ, attending a bohemian wedding, or enjoying a nice dinner out, it will serve you well. For this reason, we encourage every woman to have this staple in her closet, and for the boho woman, more is more. 

Here are a few of our favorite ways to style a maxi dress: a smocked maxi dress is ideal on its own during the heat of the day and even better at night when layered with a crisp white denim jacket. A tank maxi dress in a breathable fabric and fun print such as this one is easy enough to throw on when you’re running out to lunch and comfortable enough to wear while traveling. Either way, pair it with a few beaded bracelets and a raffia tote, and you’ll be ready for anything. Or, dress up this patch print tiered maxi dress with wedges and a pair of drop earrings to create the perfect boho chic outfit for a night out.

4. A Floral Print Top 

When bohemian style was big in the 70s, floral prints took center stage, and floral prints are still very much a big piece of modern boho style. Small floral prints and micro-florals in both bright colors and muted tones are particularly bohemian. Micro-florals may be tiny, but they are having a big moment right now. Embrace the trend and bohemian fashion at once with this petal print top. Pair it with crisp white jeans during the day or a chic black skirt at night. 

Wear this signature characteristic of boho style in another way with a simple floral print tank. The longer length and ruffle hem of this style give it even greater boho flair. Pair it with denim jeans for a casual look or with black bootcut pants and a cardigan for a boho outfit that’s worthy of the office. Any floral print blouse, for that matter, can make for a work-appropriate boho outfit when paired with tailored trousers. Have a bit more fun with it by adding boho jewelry such as a turquoise necklace or a mother of pearl bangle.  

 

5. A Matching Set 

A matching set is a modern bohemian outfit idea that we can’t get enough of. It’s also one of the easiest outfits to put together because the top and bottom are already perfectly paired. Reach for this ruffle-sleeve tie-front top, for example, and pull on the matching embroidered pants, and you will be ready in less than two minutes. The floral embroidery and flowy silhouettes of these pieces couldn’t be more bohemian. 

Another favorite boho set you will surely reach for over and over again is this peasant top and these wide-leg pants. What more could you want than a head-to-toe look that’s incredibly comfortable in a charming textured pinstripe print? Style it with sandals or sneakers, and add a denim jacket when the weather turns cool because this isn’t a look you’ll stock away when the seasons change.  

For a vacation-ready look that’s as easy to pack as it is to put together, pair this tropical sea print midi skirt with the matching drape cami in cool crepe fabric. Wear the fun set to a celebratory dinner with heels and dress the look down by wearing each piece separately. Go for a drive in linen shorts and the cami, and visit a museum in a simple tank top and the skirt. 

 

6. A Flowy Skirt

Skirts have been a trademark piece of boho ladies since the very beginning. Gypsies, who are often associated with the earliest bohemian trend, wore large tiered skirts, flowing tops, layers of jewelry, and headscarves. Recreate their iconic style today with a free-flowing skirt with tiered panels. Pair it with a matching peasant top and hoop earrings, and you have an outfit that can take you anywhere; with wedges, it’s a chic look for date night, with boots and a leather jacket, it can attend a music festival, and with sandals and a hat it’s idyllic for wine tasting.  

Another skirt any boho should have in her wardrobe? This maxi flare-hem skirt in a mesmerizing patchwork design. It’s easy to pull on, flattering on any figure, and can pair with a plethora of solid-colored tops. A perfect match? The rattan buckle on this twist top is all you need to stay true to your boho self, but when paired with the pretty patchwork skirt, it’s an outfit bohemians dream of. 


7. Tie-Dye Loungewear

You can even show off your boho style at home with a loungewear set in a quintessential boho print—tie-dye. This 60s-era print was all too common among the hippies—or should we call them bohemians—of the time. We return to this original pattern in a simple, fun, and sophisticated way with styles such as our cloudy blue tie-dye print sweatpants and matching short-sleeve pullover, our scoop-neck tank dress, as well as our beloved t-shirt dress. Although these bohemian style outfits are cozy enough to wear on the couch, you can also throw them on with a pair of sneakers and head out for a walk or a trip to the store. A tie dye dress is also an ideal option for comfortable loungewear or to dress up. Wherever you go, your boho style can follow. You can even reflect your boho style in your home. If you’ve never considered the question, “What is boho decor?,” take some time to discover beautiful boho decor ideas. Your home can be just as chic as you are. 

As you can see, these pieces can be worn in a variety of ways to create a multitude of stylish boho outfits, both when worn together and when combined with items from your own closet.
