What is Bohemian Chic decor?

Be chic and bohemian! Decoration magazines, instagram and other pinterest seem to sell us this as the pinnacle of coolness. The Chic and Bohemian decor would therefore be an ideal combination of vintage or rattan furniture, Berber carpets in wool and dream catchers in macramé which, thanks to the miracle of Feng Shui harmony, would be able to escape the Baba Cool Hippie cliché which is seriously lacking. of personal hygiene. A quick trip to an online concept store that imports everything from the Marrakech souk and your living room would become the star Gypset Living of the decoration trend pages of Madame Figaro or Elle Décoration.

Well, if we forget the sarcasm and the exaggeration of the last sentence, it's a bit, if not exactly, that the decor Bohème Chic. A more or less conscious attempt to reconcile gypsy spirituality and hippie freedom with the ease and comfort that a certain economic well-being can bring. Should we be ashamed?

Left Caviar or Bourgeois Bohème, same fight! We simply unconsciously want to reconcile conformity and freedom.

Tip number 1 for a Bohemian Chic decor

Think travel and freedom! Interior decoration is rarely just a question of products, of this or that sofa, coffee table or wool carpet. It's more a question of atmosphere, of the subliminal message conveyed by the pieces that you add to your interior to give it a soul, your soul. So if this Moldavian rug with floral motifs evokes travel and freedom for you, it's Bohemian. It's bohemian not because a magazine said so but because YOU decide it's bohemian!

Could be a big rug. We would obviously be delighted if it was a large Moldavian Rug Bohemian Chic Interior. But if not, no worries! Get inspired but without copying. Do like those Flamenco guitarists who are not all Manitas de Plata but do their best to emulate it with their own style.

A Gypsy room

The living room is public, the bedroom more private. You will have a beautiful vintage Beniouarain, Boucheroïte or Azilal rug on the bedside rug. Books on the bedside table, maybe your yoga mat in the corner, and jewelry boxes. It is sometimes said in interior decoration that less is more, we seek stripping and simplicity. But forget that if you are looking for a bohemian chic vibe. Don't be afraid of the "more is beautifull"!
