It's the 40th anniversary of the Summer of Love. Celebrate by adding some hippie-chic to your style repertoire. They key is to keep it subtle. Think Kate Hudson (not your crazy uncle Larry who has all those stories about touring with the Dead). Here are some great ways to add a little BoHo to your get-up.
Dress up your hair with well placed braids. For an every day look worn by the likes of Mandy Moore and Jessica Simpson, french braid a one inch section of hair starting from your part and hitting just behind your ear. Otherwise keep going for the braided halo look ala Sienna Miller and Scarlett Johansson. It can add casual cool to a formal outfit.
Now that you have the hippie hair, go out and a groovy dress. This season's perfect bohemian hemline is the maxi dress. Opposite of the mini dress, it's über long and should skim the ground as you walk. It is a look donned by hippie-chic goddesses such as Sheryl Crow and Miz Hudson herself.
Well, you've just about reached bohemian perfection! Now all you have to do is say things like "far out" and tell people that "Tapestry" by Carol King changed your life. While you're at it, hit up a few outdoor concerts while the weather is still nice!
