April 12, 2012: Accessories are without a doubt excellent outfit add-ons - injecting spiff and interest to any basic outfit. If you adore the exotic look of bohemian fashion or just want to dip your toes in the world of the bohonistas then consider experimenting with rich and earthy boho-inspired shoes, bags and jewelry.

Look like a bohemian Goddess in these "haute hippie"-inspired accessories:

How to layer with boho accessories

Pair a couple of boho deluxe accessories with a white sun dress or your favorite pair of denim jeans and tee - and voila - you have a chic and up-to-date look! Layering is almost a prerequisite in achieving a bohemian look - so layer it as much as possible, but not to the degree that it makes it look like you're drowning in it.

My tip for looking chic in layers:

This is recommended for the petite fashionista, but is also a strategic way for anyone who wants to maintain a chic and sleek look. It also prevents you and your outfit from looking clunky.

So I recommend going for a maximum of 3 layers (ie. tee/dress, sweater/jacket, necklace) - but you can do more and still look good if you choose slim, vertical pieces instead of the chunky and widening ones. Think low necklines, pendant necklace, pendants with a slim, vertical shape, soft & long scarves, and so on.
