Fashion Tips: Add a Boho Clutch to Your Wardrobe for a Touch of Bohemian Style

Joyce Carole
The April edition of Instyle Magazine had a wonderful article on the "Boho Clutch". The boho clutch is considered one of the hot spring fashion trends. I have always been a fan of clutch purses. A clutch purse can take you from day to evening and they work perfectly when carried to the most formal events. The Boho clutch is a little different from your standard evening clutch. Boho clutches tend to be bright in color and many times feature floral, ethnic or paisley prints. In this article I will provide you with some tips on how to use your boho clutch to its full advantage and provide you with some links to five of my favorite boho clutches.

How to Wear the Boho Clutch

According to the experts at Instyle Magazine you can feel free to mix your patterned boho clutch with print clothing. Just remember to make sure that both your clutch and your clothing are from the same color palette. The experts at Instyle also recommend avoiding preppy jewelry like plastic bangles and floral necklaces. Plastic jewelry is a no, no when it comes to boho.

I'd like to expand upon the advice given by the experts at Instyle magazine with a few tips of my own. Try pairing a boho clutch that has a vintage feel with a pair of loose fit jeans and a peasant top for a cool bohemian look. Your boho clutch can accessorize a non boho outfit as well. Carry your boho clutch when you wear your favorite pencil skirt and blouse. The boho clutch can add that special touch of "bohemian style" to spice up a basic outfit.

What I Like about the Boho Clutch

There are many things that make the boho clutch a great accessory. First they are fun look that is available in many different colors and patterns. They allow you to be creative without going overboard. Another nice feature about the boho clutch is that in many cases this is an accessory that you can purchase on the cheap. Many times the best boho clutches can be found at the local vintage store or consignment shop.
