Boho Ho Ho

 I am having a small love affair with Boho chic, 

both in fashion and decor.

Bohemian style was applied to people who lived

the unconventional and artistic lifestyle.  It 

originated with the gypsy culture in Europe

many years ago.

Now fashionable designers are including

boho chic into their fashion collections.

Ruffly floral skirts with wonderful

patterns and colors are a part of the style scene today.

 And it's hard not to pick up a magazine and

see the Boho influence there as well.

Now you might not want to go this far ....

but with a little creativity,

could you find some place for a little

color and pattern in your present decor?

Is it not time to add a little color and pattern

to your home's neutral scheme?

 Love the chair

and the patterns of wallpaper

that resemble a quilt.

I did this in a bathroom years ago

and it still remains one of my

favorite projects for my home.

Some of the decor is a little too dark for my taste

but I would in a New York minute love to

have that chandelier or those yummy curtains,

especially the fuschia curtains in the back room.

I am heading off to Little India in Toronto

to find some wonderful saris to use in my decor.

This is a Pucci design.  

Even the top designers are incorporating 

the Boho style.

So if you can't live with bohemian decor,

how about a boho outfit for

your next big summer party?
