If you have been a follower of the blog, you KNOW that one of my favorite trends is what I like to call BOHO Luxe! An easy breezy, laid back chic style completed with natural fabrics dressed in teals, browns, olives, and all the shades in between, paired with chic accessories and details- I LOVE this trend which at times is a lifestyle of mines! Or maybe I dream it to be.

Anyways, for Spring 2011, continuing from Fall 2010 is the Boho Luxe and Bohemian Rhapsody look. From nature inspired and free-spirited to the Studio 54 Siren, the 70’s trend has an essence of sex appeal and confidence woven into each key item.

70’s Glam, The EVENING Gown, Denim Remixed, Bold and Saucy Prints are all key elements to this trend!
