BORED, Bored, bored.... and festival fashion, BOHO style....

I'm so bored these days, it's July, and all I've dealt with so far this Summer is rain, rain- OH, and more RAIN! (part from that week in the South of France, drinking monacos) well that's Ireland for you I 'spose- the country of leprechauns, and you guessed it RAIN!!!
Anyways enough of all that. I decided to make this post all about festival fashion, as it is festival season!!! So if you live in Ireland like me get your wellies out, and if your lucky enough to be somewhere hot get your gladiator sandals out! This post is all based on festival fashion BOHO STYLE..... a personal fave of mine, as I love that whole 70s, flowing locks, sun kissed skin, and peasant skirt look. Below are a few images to give you inspiration.

Boho braids, seriously cool me thinks (I wish I was good with hair *sigh*)


Get your rave on boho style.......

I just really like this picture, there's such a romantic feeling to it!

Now guys for your favourite part, and my guilty pleasure- MY TOP BOHO ICONS (I can hear your cheers from all over the world) I know I probably should of put them from favourite, to leaste favourite, but it would actually be IMPOSSIBLE for me to do, so here we go my darlings....


SIENNA MILLER
Sienna's been channelling the boho chic look ever since she burst on the scene way back in the early 00's, a personal fashion icon of mine (although think shes gone abit boring of late) I wanted to be her years ago, that messy just got out of bed hair, that yet looked perfect (why couldn't that be me) her endless wardrobe of amazing vintage clothes, what can I say I'm well jel!


KATE MOSS

Not only is she one of the most famous supermodels, in my opinion she is the one who brought the boho look back on to everyones radar. She does boho without even thinking about it, she's just effortlessly chic- boho chic that is. If I could be left in her wardrobe for 20 minutes well I'd be like a pig in- emmmm we'll leave it at that.

notable mentions
Nicole Richie
MK Olsen

Remember my darlings channel your inner BOHO CHIC!!!

Images my own archive, that were probably gotten from google images.

Just a quick Hello, and Brigitte Bardot

Well as you all know my little darlings this is my first blog, and I hope it's an success, although I don't really mind if it's not because atleaste I'm doing something I enjoy. The blog is still at the work in progress stage, but hopefully I will have it up to scratch within the next week or two!
So as this is my fist blog post I've decided to talk about quite possibly, although incredibly hard to choose my favourite style icon, and beauty Brigitte Bardot!

It was the 1950's slowly things were becoming less strict, and the smell of freedom, and rebellion was in the air. It was Cannes film festival, and a nymph of beauty was parading herself among the beaches of Cannes in an itsy bitsy bikini (quite shocking for the time) There was talk amongst everyone "who is she? Where does she come from?" Little did they know that this curvy waif (yes they do exist) would in the next fews years become one of the most famous foreign film actresss', a singer, a fashion icon, before retiring at the age of 39 in the 1970's (because as the saying goes it is better to burn out, than to fade out) She ramains in the thoughts of people for her impeccable style, she made the bikini, gingham (got married to her second husband in gingham), capri pants, and flats a must have, that has yet some 50 years on to go out of fashion. Where is Brigitte now since she has shunned celebrity, living a relative recluse in her house in St Troprez (La Madrague) surrounded by animals, and dedicating her life to animal rights.
