"Taylor's Take" on Boho Chic

If you liked the bohemian influences that we saw in 2011, you're in luck because their popularity has continued into 2012 fashion. Boho-chic draws on various Bohemian and "hippie" influences.
One of the most important elements of the boho-chic look? Accessorizing! Layered pieces, lots of bracelets, bold tribal-like necklaces...

This carnelian Starsong necklace and matching earrings are a perfect fit for Spring fashion. The carnelians are a vibrant tangerine color, which is the color of the year. Pairing the orange with it's complementary color blue makes the necklace pop. It's also a nice complement to an analogous color like yellow. To read more about pairing colors read last weeks post. The style and color of this necklace would be a perfect blend with the African and Native American prints that are in fashion this spring too.

This Starsong piece has the feel of the bib necklace and evokes the feeling of tribal plates and knife edges that are so popular in the boho-chic/ethnic styles.

It is bold, fun and eye-catching, yet surprisingly comfortable. I love the earrings because they actually show up against my long hair but they are so light weight I forgot that I was wearing earrings!

There are so many reasons why we love this Starsong set. Come in and try this one-of-a-kind piece for yourself.
