Boho Chic

When the new toy arrived, we wanted to have test shoot right away. Problem is, we don’t have a model! So we came up with this “We Shoot, We Model” set. We ransacked our closets to come up with a Bohemian look which we all love, laid back and carefree.

The models were a bit shy from the start but after a few poses here and there, the two were just amazing! You can hardly tell it was there first time!

Enjoy!

What's Boho?

Bohemian style, now referred to as boho chic, has come down through history, reappearing as beatnik style and in the hippie culture of the 1960's. For 200 years, bohemian style has consisted of several fashion elements.
  • Loose, flowing clothing made of natural fabrics
  • Less restrictive garments worn without corsets, bras or other restrictive elements
  • Loose, flowing hair
  • Colorful scarves worn at the neck, on the head, or instead of a belt
  • Peasant style clothing including tunics, loose trousers, boots, and sandals
  • Used or worn clothing
  • Oriental elements including robes, kimonos, an the ethnic designs of Persia, India, Turkey, and China
  • Mixing historical elements of medieval clothing with ethnic styles
  • Layering
  • Matching of garments in a nontraditional manner, such as mixing prints, or unusual color combinations
  • Multi strands of beads, several bangle bracelets, and the wearing of unusual, hand crafted, or unmatched jewelry
