Boho Shoes

Typical boho shoes (or shoes inspired by bohemian fashion) are flat, comfy and neutral-colored (think black, tan, dark brown, olive green, etc.). You can find them in a variety of casual-chic styles - from suede to top-grain leather boots, strappy shoes such as gladiator sandals to a more updated heeled wedge with bead details - and also fun and playful moccasins.

If you're a bohonista like me, then you just can't be without at least two pair of ankle boots in either suede or distressed leather for fall/winter, and of course a pair of super cool and chic leather gladiator sandals! They'll slip perfectly with your print bohemian dresses :-)

How to Wear Boho Shoes

There really is no specific rule to wearing them other than following some of the basic fashion guidelines on how to select a pair of shoes that flatter your body figure. But if you need some inspiration and outfit ideas, here are some suggestions:

Secure the Basics

If you have a dominant Bohemian Clothing Personality, then you definitely need several pair of casual boots and leather sandals to complement your style.

So secure:

2x pair of flat sandals in a dark and medium neutrals such as black or dark chocolate and a lighter brown like tan or beige
1x pair of flat knee high slouch boots
1x pair of flat ankle slouch boots

If you love heels and would like to create a luxe-glam look, then add another pair of each shoe type with heels! Wedges are a perfect example.

Wear Them as Your Outfit's Focal Point

This is great way to bring attention to a pair o gorgeous legs or simply create a fashion statement. So look for sandals and shoes with print or embellished details, such as:

Sequins
Studs
Straps & buckles
Fringes and tassels

.. as well as various textures such as croc and snake.

I also suggest then I suggest to pair the shoes with a basic dress that won't compete with each other. So leave out trendy prints and details, and rather opt for something neutral and/or solid colored. Give the center-stage to your feet!

Maintain a boho look for Winter

For winter, pull on your boots and booties! Try wearing slouchy ankle leather boots or Minnetonka moccasin boots with skinny jeans and a knit sweater with a boho scarf mixed with a long necklace.

Another idea is to wear black tights with an boho print tunic dress and slouchy or modern cowboy boots for a rugged boho look. Or switch out the dress with denim shorts, tank top and a print cardigan.
