Who is the BOHO girl?

The Boho girl is the only one who can get away with scuffed shoes, unironed pretty tops and uncombed hair, yet still manage to look completely original!
Her home imitates her sartorial style and is always in a state of dishevelment and disarray.
Introduce anything really smart or over designed and the whole balance is thrown horribly.
It would never occur to her to visit Ikea for a flat-packed wardrobe when there is a local market, auction house and junk emporium around the corner.

VINTAGE GONE BOHO in OCTOBER at MOSS INDUSTRY

BOHO.... The boho girl is a broad minded free spirit who loves to live surrounded by exquisite and exotic things from the past.A dedicated maximalist, she would never 'pare down' or rationalize her possessions.Disdaining fashion,she lives in a bolder,broader life than her style-obsessed sisters.
This season means absolutely nothing to her; it goes against the grain to pay attention to puerile fashion diktats.
The Boho girl loves character and history.The objects she aquires have their own stories - anecdotes that she tells again and again to curious admirers.Faded, ripped and torn, she overlooks their faults and sees only ravished beauty. Logic does not seem to apply.
Her rooms may be tumbledown,cramped,disorganised even, but they will always be charming.

STYLE SIGNATURE

The Boho boudoir is all about reverence for history and a thirst for the exotic.There is a complete lack of artifice and disregard for current decorating idioms. Rooms are furnished with pieces inherited from a relative,a junk yard sale or flea market.All acquired rather haphazardly with no idea of 'coordination'.
The Boho girl adores lamps with amusing little shades made of feathers or ruched chiffon.Although she had no particular theme in mind, she is drawn to the soft romantic tones that make her home feel dreamy and relaxed.
