Boho - style in modern fashion

Hello, everyone.
Today I'd like to speak to you about so-called "Boho-style", what is that and where did it come from.
It is considered that a word "boho" came from a word "bohemian", which almost means artistical. So the main point of boho-style is actually an artistic disorder - crumpled cloths, ragged jeans, eclectic mix of factures, prints and colours.

Boho- people are a sort of modern Gypsies, they live in a community, move arrond the world and stay where they want to, they are mostly creative persons- artists, musicians, modern flower children. But nowdays it is all based on a philosophy of caring attitude for the Earth. Many of them are fighting for animals' rights and try to protect the environment.

Nomadism made a great influence on their look. That style and way of living have lately become very popular in Hollywood and many stars started to dress up in boho-style and to share their ideas.
What exactly is that style about? Long skirts, chekered or flower-printed, free-size tunics, t-shirts, even as a cowgirl-style, jeans are acceptable too. Shoes- sporty or elegant sandals, boots, grinders. Hats and bandans can be usefull in this case, wide belts too. And the mail detail is to wear lots of accesories, braslets, few chains or beads, huge sun glasses, many rings. The Olsen Twins are considered to be one of the boho-style fans, they prefer to wear long skirts and hats very often.

Speaking about men's fashion it's more about military or gipsy-style. Jeans or free pants, t-shirt under the jacket, multi-layer is an important caracteristic of boho-style too. Different kinds of scarfs, shawls, wraps are wanted, and a multiplicity of accesories, too. Watch are sporty or vintage, hats are preferable. As an example of boho-mens fashion I can call Johnny Depp for sure.
