Boho Style According to Pinterest

Boho style is by its very nature eclectic, which makes Pinterest an excellent source of style inspiration. Trend setters from across the country and across the globe are pinning their chic and original ideas daily. Susan Engle's pinboard is the perfect jumping off point for your boho search. As you scroll down Susan's board you will find a few common denominators in this style trend that seems to be without rules.

The only thing better than a long necklace is a longer necklace
If you can start a double Dutch jump rope session with your necklace you might be a boho. Use your your longest necklace as a foundation and layer on shorter necklaces. Pick something that will swing while you strut; beaded, pendant and chain necklaces are all great choices.

Make your bangles and cuffs sing
You're a storyteller. You talk with your hands. And when you do, because you're boho, all those bracelets cling-clang together banging out the soundtrack to your exciting life. Layer and let the world hear it!

Nothing says organic like leather and feathers
Cold materials like shiny metal and dark beads need to be off-set with something more organic. Leather suggests that you're down to earth not an up in the clouds socialite. And the colorful plumage of feathers show that you aren't afraid to preen. Also consider seashells to give your look an element of water.

Keep your digits a mystery
Add additional rings to add an air of mystery. A ring on every finger makes you a wild card and a girl who can flirt (just a little!). Every semi-precious stone has a unique meaning so choose carefully when choosing your story.
