Summer in the park
Summer is the perfect time to roll out the blanket for a boho picnic. Boho is all the rage with summer and outdoor eating.
So, what is Boho style? It is a style of fashion influenced by bohemian, gypsy and hippie looks developed in the middle to late 1960’s. Celebrities like Sienna Miller and Kate Moss caused a resurge after their much-published fashion sense at outdoor festivals. Fashion features include floaty fabrics, fringing, embroidered tunics, sheepskin and boots.
For your Boho picnic you will need: pallets or milk crates as tables, rugs, cushions, jars, festoon lighting, candles, flowers and accessories.
