Bohemian chic jewelry, also known as "hippie chic" jewelry, has been on trend for several years and is still going strong. They complement a casual, natural style of dress inherited from the hippie years, but brought up to date in a more elegant, glamorous and feminine version.

Here's an overview of this trend and its characteristics, along with our advice on how to create a flawless look with boho chic jewelry!

Bohemian chic jewelry inspirations

Bohemian chic jewelry has its origins in an ancient style that was particularly popular two centuries ago: that of the bohemians, who were very much in evidence in Europe at the time. From the 1970s onwards, other social categories seized on this style of dress and appropriated its codes, symbolizing a simpler, more nomadic way of life. Bohemian accessories and boho chic jewelry became associated with intellectuals, writers, musicians and many other artists. Nevertheless, as freedom of choice is a very important value in the bohemian style, it is often complicated to give a strict definition. For example, hippie chic jewelry belongs to a rather open category, and doesn't take kindly to constraints or overly closed frameworks.

Compose your style with boho chic jewelry

Although the style of bohemian chic accessories is intended to be free and open, certain constants can be found to a large extent in the jewelry to be favored, whether it's bohemian chic rings, bracelets or sautoir necklaces.

Colors: for these jewels, colors are bright and sunny. They can match any bohemian style, or lighten up an overly formal outfit.

Size: boho chic jewelry is generally large, even oversized. Aficionados generally appreciate large, colorful earrings, bohemian chic rings covered with large, vibrant stones, and bracelets that sometimes go as far as full-fledged cuffs covering the wrists.

Accumulation: in the hippie chic style, we don't hesitate to wear dozens of bohemian long necklaces around the neck, rings on every finger, bracelets covering the arms and even piercings.
