The New Boho

Cast your mind back a few years, to the boho era of Sienna, Mischa and Lindsay. It was all about gypsy skirts, cowboy boots, low-slung belts and the Chloe Paddington.
Sienna has left her boho days behind her, but the look has returned for summer - just like it does every year.
This updated version of boho focuses on print. Louis Vuitton's S/S 2010 collection [left] was a mass jumble of tribal prints, in zesty limes, bright blues and sugary pinks. Zoe Saldana has already worn a dress from the Vuitton collection, selecting a classic black blazer as her only accessory.
And whilst Sienna was the boho poster-girl last time around, it's Nicole Richie who's leading the pack for 2010. She's been wearing lots of 60's and 70's inspired prints lately, especially in warm tones of orange, red and brown. And this look runs throughout her House of Harlow 1960 and Winter Kate collections, which are great labels for boho basics.

My current boho style crush is Ashley Olsen. I love the way she pairs her embellished jacket with a luxe silk jumpsuit. Will you be working this look over the summer? How do you plan to style it?
