How to Recognize a Chic Bohemian Maxi Skirt?

In both summer and winter, a long skirt is a comfortable piece of clothing that is feminine and lightweight. However, to match your bohemian chic style, it’s essential that your skirt also has those qualities!

An Iconic Outfit of the Boho Chic Trend

In the late 1960s, the hippie movement emerged in the United States as a response to the Vietnam War and the traditional values of conservative society. From a fashion perspective, hippies brought true liberation: they wore light and loose-fitting clothing that allowed for great freedom of movement. These outfits were often personalized, featuring patterns like Tie and Dye, which creates a gradient of colors, or intricate embroidery.

The hippies embraced fashion by wearing colorful and comfortable clothing, which perfectly aligns with what a long skirt can represent. Today, we can see in bohemian fashion the legacy of that era of freedom and creativity!

Diverse Patterns and Colors

Inspired by the hippie movement as well as by ethnic fabrics from Africa and the East, bohemian chic skirts are known for their wide variety of colors and designs. You can find arabesques, botanical patterns, and even reproductions of Indian weavings. While some may be solid-colored, they are usually vibrant or textured with lace, for example.

Natural Materials

The boho chic style highlights natural materials like linen and cotton. You can also find synthetic skirts made from viscose or polyester, but these aim to closely mimic the look and feel of natural fiber fabrics. This adds a sense of flow to the clothing and gives your outfit an authentic touch!

Does this style suit you?

The bohemian maxi skirt is an easy-to-wear outfit that flatters all body types. Its high waist helps accentuate your hips and enhances your femininity.

If you’re petite, don’t be afraid to wear a long skirt: just be sure to choose one that is well-tailored. It should visually account for ⅔ of your outfit’s height, while the top you wear with it should make up the remaining third. 😉

Therefore, the bohemian skirt is perfect for you if you’re looking for a piece of clothing:

• easy to wear and match,
• highlights your curves,
• allows for great freedom of movement,
• protects you from sunburn in the summer,
• colorful and unique,
• suitable for dressed-up occasions, like a wedding,
• can be worn in summer or winter, on vacation, or at work.

What Top Goes with a Bohemian Maxi Skirt?

Once you’ve chosen your skirt, it’s time to find an outfit that will highlight it, starting with the top you’ll wear with it. Here are some ideas to help you out!

A Crop Top

Very trendy in recent years, the crop top is, as its name suggests, a shorter top (with “cropped” meaning “cut off” in English) that reveals your hips and midriff. It pairs particularly well with a bohemian skirt, especially in the summer or on vacation. It flatters most body types: if you are a bit curvy, you can definitely wear a crop top, but I recommend pairing it with a high-waisted long skirt that covers your stomach to enhance your beautiful curves.

👉 A white crop top will be perfect for highlighting a colorful bohemian skirt! It can feature lacing details or a bit of lace to complete your look!

A Trendy T-Shirt

If you’re not comfortable showing your midriff, a classic t-shirt that is a bit loose will also work well with a long bohemian skirt. I recommend tucking it into your skirt and letting it blouse slightly to create a nice transition between the two pieces.

A t-shirt can also be suitable for a business casual outfit. It can be solid-colored or feature a unique design that lets you express a bit of your personality through your attire!

A Bohemian Tunic or Blouse

If you’re looking for a more dressed-up outfit (and a bit warmer too!), you can pair your skirt with a bohemian blouse. This could be a button-up shirt, a long-sleeve top, or a tunic. Once again, I recommend tucking your top into your skirt and letting it blouse out to create a cohesive look.

What Shoes to Wear with a Bohemian Maxi Skirt?

Choosing Shoes to Match a Skirt can be a bit challenging. It’s important that the shoes don’t clash too much with the skirt and instead complement the rest of your outfit for a cohesive look. To help you out, I’m sharing my selection in the following lines! 😉

Lightweight Sandals

Want to wear your bohemian maxi skirt this summer? If so, I highly recommend pairing it with open-toed sandals that have a light strap. These can be heeled to give you a taller silhouette, or flat for added comfort. To match the bohemian style, go for natural tones like camel brown, ecru, or cream white. Choose leather, whether genuine or synthetic, for an authentic look.

White Sneakers

Wearing sneakers with a dress hasn’t been considered a fashion faux pas for several years now. It adds a casual and lively touch to your outfit, making you look radiant.

However, not all pairs of sneakers are compatible with a long skirt. To maintain an elegant and feminine look, I recommend choosing a pair of low-top white sneakers. They should be spotless to pair nicely with your skirt and create a lovely connection to a white top or accessory that you are wearing.

Boots for Winter

Can’t seem to part ways with your long bohemian skirt? Adding it to your winter wardrobe is easy! Just pair it with thin, discreet tights and fitted ankle boots. If it’s an option for you, heeled boots would be perfect to enhance your silhouette. They’ll pair beautifully with a fitted leather jacket in a matching color, giving you the look of a stylish, independent woman!

What Accessories to Choose for the Perfect Bohemian Look?

As I often mention on this blog, bohemian fashion wouldn’t be what it is without its iconic accessories. These pieces allow you to assert your style by personalizing your outfit. To complete your look, you might consider wearing:

• Sunglasses and a hat to accentuate your face and protect you from the sun,
• A stylish natural bag, made of fabric or materials like straw or wicker,
• Scarves and shawls to enhance your silhouette and add flair.

💍 Do you love jewelry? Don’t hesitate to wear it! You can choose unique pieces, designer jewelry, or even vintage sets to elegantly and subtly showcase what makes you one-of-a-kind in the world!

Skirts Are in Fashion for Women

The long skirt, also known as the bohemian skirt, is making a big comeback in the fashion of the 2020s. It is reminiscent of the hippie era, and we can see people wearing them in images from the “flower power” movement, on the lawns of the Woodstock festival… as well as in the streets of our cities today. The women’s skirt is, overall, part of current trends. Of course, women are still wearing pants, especially those who are at the forefront of fashion trends, but the skirt still has its place. It’s worth mentioning that when it comes to fashion in 2023, we have an incredibly wide selection.

Today’s Fashion is Made of Everything

We can draw inspiration from the styles that defined the last few decades of the last century, each in its own way, just as we can find ideas in traditional skirts from around the world. This is the great advantage of today’s fashion, where anything goes and nothing seems too outlandish to anyone, as originality is key. We see young people strolling around dressed as they did in 1968 or 1983, just as we see adults wearing the same clothes they wore during their teenage years.

How to Wear a Long Skirt to a Wedding?

Are you invited to a wedding or serving as a bridesmaid? Do you want to wear a bohemian outfit that flatters you? Chic and feminine, a solid long bohemian skirt is the perfect choice.

I recommend choosing a pastel shade, such as pale pink, and pairing it with a plain white top and sandals in a similar color. Don’t hesitate to accessorize this outfit with an iconic and timeless bohemian accessory: the flower crown! This type of outfit will definitely give you a natural and feminine look while remaining very comfortable—perfect for parties!
