How to Create A Boho Capsule Wardrobe

Creating a boho capsule wardrobe will help you dress the true bohemian way, without breaking the bank.

For those free-spirited souls among you, we think you deserve a wardrobe to reflect your unique personality and lust for life. Here are our top tips for embracing boho style with a Joe Browns twist!

Floaty, floral and free is what comes to mind when shopping for the perfect boho dress. While the classic maxi dress becomes a central part of your capsule wardrobe, it’s not always perfect for every excursion. We recommend opting for a midi or mini dress, too, to give you more variety when choosing your boho outfit depending on the occasion.

Much like dresses, a long, floaty skirt is a boho capsule wardrobe essential. With a variety of patterns and prints to choose from, you’re free to find the piece that represents your unique personality. Additionally, choose a midi or mini skirt that’ll be the perfect partner to a white broderie top. Think ra-ra skirts, tiered skirts and hanky hems to show off your bohemian side.

Think embroidery or raw hems with bootcut and flare silhouettes for your choice of bottoms. The embroidery coupled with the silhouette gives a gorgeous retro look with a nod to the 70s, and keeps the eye moving throughout the outfit. As a plus, your boho-style trousers will perfectly pair with your statement tops and tunics. Speaking of which...

Cover your bases with a range of tops and tunics. Choose a timeless graphic tee, a top or two in block colours, and statement shirts to effortlessly combine outfits together. Think balloon sleeves, scoop necks and floaty blouses. Grab a camisole or two to layer underneath loose crochet and lace tops for a dynamic boho look.

Knitwear and crochet can dramatically elevate your outfit. Pick a statement piece such as a longline knit with an earthy colour palette for a sensational top layer to any outfit. Loose, crochet knits look fantastic over a cami when paired with embellished jeans to really give off that free-spirited vibe.

One word: trendy tassel shoes. Find a pair of ankle boots with tassel and fringe detailing. Perfect for any kind of weather, those boots are made for walking and feeling fabulous. Opt for a pair of sandals in case of sunny weather and a heeled boot for when you’re out-out.

A great backpack option for your boho-inspired capsule wardrobe consists of patterning, embroidery and patches. For a handbag option, a neutral suede or woven bag will really give off the boho vibe. Think natural earthy tones with pops of colour to show off your personality.

The world is your oyster when it comes to accessories. A fedora always works well, as well as a small selection of beaded bracelets and long pendant necklaces. Bonus points for flowers and feathers! Embrace the nature element of the bohemian way of life and you won’t go wrong!
