Summer is the season of festivals. Music, good vibes, freedom and last but not least, fashion. Starting from late April, there are four following months of colorful bohemian madness around the world. In order to get the best of the festival experience, you need to know how to create the best bohemian outfit that will help you blend into the environment and will, hopefully, turn heads. Fashion may have no limits, but it sometimes limits people due to cost issues.There is a solution! Here are some suggestions for how one can create a million dollar outfit when having and when not having that million.
Starting from the bottom, there is one distinctive element that every bohemian outfit needs: lace up sandals. If you are on a budget, you can try those 18,31 euros sandals from ASOS , but if you are willing to do some spending, you should not miss those Stuart Weitzman roman sandals for 435 euros.

Being bohemian is about freedom and leisure, so flowy midi or maxi dresses are always a great idea. When going to a festival, everyone wants to feel comfortable and wear a safe outfit, so shorts might be a better choice this time. What about those suede fringy bottoms from New Look? They are only 8,45 euro. Or those high waisted denim shorts from Valentino? If you like them, you should know they cost 980 euros. Don’t forget, denim, fringes and floral patterns are key ingredients of any boho recipe.

A knitted top or just a cropped cotton one are great choices for a festival outfit. Summer is hot so you should embrace that and adapt your fashion to it. A crop top from Amazon for only 3,98 euro sounds really good, and so does this white loose sleeve T-shirt from Free People Peak Island for 95,77 euro.

Summer is hot, but this doesn’t mean one can’t be chic by using a chiffon kimono from DIDO, costing 0,01 euro, or a colorful 105,86 euro handmade crochet vest from Etsy to keep it fashionable. Knitted vests are a must when talking about hippie looks. Vintage and thrift shop pieces are very welcomed to the bohemian party.

No one has ever seen a boho look without metallic gypsy inspired bracelets or a statement necklace. For the low spenders, some accessory suggestions are an 8 euros faux suede wrap choker from FOREVER 21 and a 7 euros wrap bracelet set from the same brand. The second outfit could use some glam given by those Lili Claspe silver bracelets costing approx. 113 euros and a choker from Erin Dana for approx. 41 euro. Boho girls’ tastes can also be expensive!

Don’t forget to bring a bag with you when you go boho. What about this cross body bag from ASOS for only 11,25 euro ? This look has now plenty of suede accents. For the second look, you can rock the summer with a Guanabana bucket bag for 267.42 euros. Bohemia is always about color.

The final touch of a boho inspired outfit is definitely the choice of the head accessories and hairstyles. Being it a cowboy hat, a turban or even a flower crown, the head embellishment should be a part of the outfit for sure. Braided or wavy hairstyles are the best for any festival look. Those two outfits can be spiced up by adding a 10 euro fedora hat from TOPSHOP to the first one and an approx. 90 euros bourbon rose crown from Cult Gaia to the no-budget-limit outfit.
