Bohemian Chic…In Jeans?



Damn right it can be done! I found two girls that happened to have the same idea on the same day (the fact that they’re cousins had nothing to do with it J). So even though summer is over, the weather is still warm enough (at least here in LA) to wear something like this throughout the year. These girls hit the nail on the head when it comes to 1. Color and 2. Style.

Let me start with Color. Ok, so I know what you’re thinking….”these girls are gorgeous; they can pull off these light, skinny jeans, but if I wear those, I’ll look like I have mom jeans on!” Not necessarily. Light-colored jeans right now are very in and you don’t have to wear the skinny kind – you can find the type that works best for your body type (body type and jean fit is a whole other blog post that I will for sure get to). But I’m sure you also noticed that the color scheme is very similar; this is also very ‘in’ right now – wearing the same color all in one outfit, but in differing degrees of that same color. Looking at this example, the top and pants look good together because they’re both very light colors that are part of the same color family; varying degress of white could also work well with these jeans.

Next, is Style. Although this is what I call ‘Bohemian Chic”, you can change the accessories (shoes are considered accessories to me) and get a whole different ‘feel’ (or style) with just a few simple changes.  For instance, you can change the style altogether to “Rocker Chic” and wear this in the winter by adding a leather jacket and some high-heeled booties, or rock it out like the girls are doing here, with simple accessories and add some knee-high boots and a scarf. Either way, you rock it the way you want to and at the same time keeping up with what’s hot now without having to break the bank.
