How To Keep Wearing Boho In Winter

by Lindsey Rose Black

Boho style's breezy patterns and flowy cuts lend themselves to spring and summer, but what's a hippie chick to do come winter months and freezing temps? No worries, I've scouted out pieces that show you how to keep wearing boho in winter. You don't have to doom yourself to a look that doesn't reflect your boho heart!

I would describe my style as SoCal boho meets rustic hipster grandpa. Growing up in Texas, spending my teen years in Los Angeles, and finding my home in Brooklyn all show up in my wardrobe in distinctive ways, but the carefree boho vibe is a pretty constant theme.

To boho up your winter wardrobe, trade in your linen tops and destroyed denim for cozy, oversized knits and richly patterned skirts and leggings made out of thicker fabrics. And of course, remember: layer, layer, layer! You can still totally utilize your favorite summer boho dresses and skirts, but you'll want to make sure and pair them with the warmest tights you can find, cozy cute snow boots, and thick blanket scarves.

Get inspired by the pieces below to see just how easy it is to maintain your boho chic vibes even when the weather is anything but low-key and sunny.
