Dress: Hippie Chick Boutique c/o (P.S. it is almost IDENTICAL to this Free People dress but is only $30 vs. $88)  |  Booties: Sole Society c/o (old – love these perforated sandal pumps)  |  Bag: Tory Burch  |  Earrings: Tory Burch  |  Necklace: Capwell + Co. c/o  |  Lipstick: Too Faced Melted Coral


So often we see bohemian looks paired with casual shoes and accessories, but I’ve noticed you rarely see a bohemian look dressed up to look a little more formal.  I was really craving something flowy and easy for a date night with J, but wanted to look dressy at the same time.  This Hippie Chick Boutique dress fit the bill, and being that it was a classic black color, it wasn’t too difficult to find ways to class it up a bit while staying true to the bohemian feel.

I paired the dress with perforated booties from Sole Society, because the heel makes the look dressy, but the perforated design keeps it bohemian.  You guys know I have no qualms about a brown/tan and black combo, and I did want to tie in the cognac shoes with a boho leather bag but as I didn’t have one my trusty Tory Burch bag has saved the day so many times.  It’s such a great classic bag to have in your collection, that’s proven appropriate for nearly every occasion.  The delicate tassel necklace was the cherry on top – the tassel went perfectly with the dress and the gold chain gives it a dainty feel.

Have you tried wearing a bohemian style look to a dressy event?  Or do you save it for the beach-bum days?
