Not sure how to achieve a boho look? Here you’ll find bohemian fashion style tips on how to achieve a chic boho style using our Red Coral Fashion items. With the right mix, you can achieve a modern bohemian style and look stunning.
If there’s one thing many women do wrong when attempting to achieve the Boho look, it has to be putting on way too many and too long layers! That is not the Boho Chic look we’re aiming for! If your outfit has too many long layers you’ll look smaller and swallowed up. Especially if you’re short by nature. I know it’s tempting to layer your outfit with your favorite accessories but there is a fine line between looking casual-stylish and trying too hard.
Here are 2 important pointers:
- Go easy on the colour combinations, layers, length and fit of your outfit. Avoid anything that’s bigger than your body frame. Use a belt to a shapeless bohemian dress if you have to. If you’re petite, make sure to adjust to your body scale.
- When it comes to layering, you’ll usually know where to stop. Step a few feet away from the mirror and take notice of how the clothes fall from your frame.
- Does it draw attention away from your face?
- Does it “drag” your frame down, making you look smaller or stumpy?
- Does it make you look heavy or heavier than normal on some areas?
Now let’s begin!
1. Choosing Boho Chic clothing:
Choose clothing in natural tones and fabrics.
When building your Boho Chic wardrobe, choose items made from natural fabrics such as cotton, linen, velvet, chiffon, silk, leather, suede, and fur.
Say yes to lace, crochet and other embellishments.
Crocheted and lace dresses, tops, hats, and bags are staples of Boho Chic. Beads, fringe, and embroidery are also hugely popular, and can appear in your clothing and your accessories.

Think comfort.A key ingredient in Boho Chic style is comfort — you’ll see a lot of soft, loose-fitting, flowy clothes, often worn in layers. Maxi dresses (full-length, usually loose-fitting dresses) are a great example of the flowy comfort common to Boho Chic.
Know that accessorizing is a must.
Boho Chic is all about layers, and accessories are an important part of this.
