What is Boho Chic Style?

Before we get into ideal pieces that complement a bohemian look, let’s define what this style entails. In a nutshell, it’s about eclecticism and imagination. In fact, the word “bohemian” is the French word for gypsy. It’s generally used to describe an artistic, free spirit who lives an unconventional life. It draws inspiration from a world traveler with wanderlust, exuding a vibe of collected treasures.

Perhaps the best thing about boho chic style is that pretty much anything goes. You can create a whimsical, colorful look, or a unique lived-in space—remember, anything goes! When it comes to a color scheme, it’s ideal to stick to just a few primary colors and build from those. All types of colors, patterns and textures work. Boho chic embraces mix-and-match global design elements, and blends old and new touches. This style isn’t perfectly pieced together, and that’s the beauty of a boho chic look. It’s carefree, collected, fun, and cozy.

Boho Living Room

To integrate the style in the living room, throw down a colorful rug with an interesting pattern, adorn your sofa or futon with a mix-and-match of throw pillows, and sprinkle décor accents with exotic elements.

This Bergen Wood Arm Futon with 6″ Coil Mattress is a perfect canvas for adding decorative pillows and throws.  Perfect in any home where space is limited, this high-style futon easily converts from sofa to full-size bed. Throw on some pillows in varying textures and colors. Rocking a solid patchwork pattern with corduroy ribbing, the Jinelle Accent Pillow along with the Prewitt Pillow and our plush faux fur Himena Pillow are great choices to mix and match.  

Lighting is so important to add brightness and illuminate your space in a warm, inviting glow. Consider this Plato Pendant Light—its halo design with brown finished wood and black metal illuminates your room with a classic yet rustic feel. Our Malthace Table Lamp is made with patina bronze-tone hammered aluminum, and offers so much eye-catching detail with its detailed patina bronze finish and hammered effect.

Also remember that boho chic is all about an organic feel, so add some greenery and plant life into your space. Consider our set of 3 Ceramic Fox Planters for a delightfully whimsical addition.

Boho Bedroom

The bedroom is another ideal space to incorporate boho décor because it’s so perfect for personal, private quarters. Our Cazentine Queen Panel Bed offers earthy essence with an urban edge. Play with colorful bedding and comforter sets for an easy way to transform your room and to accentuate different palettes. This Meilyr 3-Piece Queen Comforter Set in gorgeous blue-green is sure to spruce up your space with color and texture. Its velvet face fabric is all puckered up with a pintuck design. Add a few pillows and your bed is a boho chic paradise! 

And don’t forget the all-important lighting! One of our faves is our Flowering Lotus Pendant Light—it adds warm, inviting light to your bedroom. Graceful and organic, its blooming lotus design makes a stunning statement.
