I love to follow fashion and will buy and wear things that are ‘in style’, but I think that deep down I tend to be a bit of a classic dresser (can you tell by the pearls with this boho look?!). It may sound boring, but sometimes you just have to know who you are and what you like. You will therefore usually find me wearing sedately fashionable things! So, when I came across this tunic top, I recognized it as the most classic of “Bohemian” looks and thought it was perfect for my taste given it’s calm pattern and somewhat narrow silhouette.
What is the Bohemian look, anyway? According to this direct quote from Wikihow, …”‘boho or ‘boho chic’ is a style of dressing that was popularized during the 1960s and 1970s …and the essence of bohemian is focusing on free and flowy fabrics“. In other words, you’re supposed to feel comfortable and carefree when wearing this style of clothing…and I did.
So, the boho tunic top featured here fits the bill in that it is made of viscose, a thin, flowy material made from wood pulp. The style of the top is not structured, nor is the neckline. The small white designs on a navy background are simple, repeated, geometric shapes and are typical patterns in boho prints. Because the top is a bit on the longer side, it can be worn long over jeans or front-tucked.
If you follow my blog, you know I love navy, so this top was a natural purchase for me. It’s also comfortable because it is soft and loose, but not too loose. As a petite gal, I like its slim silhouette and the fact that I can roll or push up the sleeves without them being bulky.
