Boho Spirit

As the fashion pack are buying up the new autumn collections, a certain boho spirit is livening up wardrobes.

The new look on the streets is definitely one of boho chic. Wearing lots of layers and combinations is, to the discerned fashion-follower, what makes putting your winter wardrobe together fun. Boho is about spirit; casually clashing and artily dishevelled, though not too hippy. Where hippy has lost its sexiness, boho becomes playful with a little injection of vavavoom.

Wear something floral, something knitted (though not too chunky as you want to layer) and something brown. Flimsy knits can be worn over one another, such as thin roll neck worn under a v-neck sweater.

A great investment for the season will be lovely leather boots. To wear over jeans, with three-quarter length trousers or culottes (head to Madeleine Press for a most flattering cut) or wear them with anything tweed.

Accessorise with coloured tights, printed bags, velvet jackets, knitted ponchos and cardigans. The latter should be long and belted thinly in the waist.
