What I didn't realize is that you were also venturing out of boho territory. Now I get it. Yes I don't wear my babydoll top anymore &amp; posted it on YLF to see why. Dated is why. I thought it just isn't me but wasn't sure because I don't know if I have left boho completely behind. Your explanations of which boho is still in &amp; which isn't lets me know that there is a reason why I like some of it but not some of it anymore. Thanks:) https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boho-going-strong-in-los-angeles#post-933409 Thu, 16 May 2013 00:02:15 +0000 Angie 933409@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ There is a HUGE difference between Boho style and '70s style - although boho style is predominantly from the '70s. <br /><br />I like your explanation, Denise :)<br /><br />Elle, there are boho elements to the styles on that slide show. I do agree with Anna, that it's more of a&nbsp; vintage representation rather than strictly boho. <br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boho-going-strong-in-los-angeles#post-933405 Wed, 15 May 2013 23:59:41 +0000 rachylou 933405@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Oh, you are right, Elle. No wonder I like Rachel Zoe stuff.<br /><br />I agree, Denise, about stuff from 5-8 years ago. And also Baby Doll tops. Definitely Boho. Definitely out.<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boho-going-strong-in-los-angeles#post-933401 Wed, 15 May 2013 23:53:12 +0000 CocoLion 933401@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ OK, I'd better explain myself. &nbsp;I was getting off the topic of Boho style. &nbsp;I was talking about 70s style which has been very popular in the 00s. &nbsp;70s style has lots of Boho elements, but it also has rocker elements. &nbsp;I was trying to explain the type of 70s style that is still current, and the type of 70s style that looks dated to me. &nbsp;For example, the look of tight baby tees and flared jeans that was wildly popular in the early 00s. &nbsp;I was watching episodes of Gossip Girl from 2007-08 recently. &nbsp;The baby doll tops Blake Lively and other cast members wore looked&nbsp;dated to me. &nbsp;Often, things from 5 -8 years ago can seem the most dated, at least to me. &nbsp;Older than that, things start to cycle again. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boho-going-strong-in-los-angeles#post-933395 Wed, 15 May 2013 23:44:13 +0000 ElleH 933395@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Rachel Zoe is still designing 70s boho fashion. Probably because she lives in LA. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boho-going-strong-in-los-angeles#post-933394 Wed, 15 May 2013 23:43:11 +0000 ElleH 933394@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I'm not sure what pics you're all looking at. There are some that are not boho but some that are in the slide show of&nbsp;the Echo Park Craft fair. Is that what you 're looking at?<br /><br />Oh I get it now. I was thinking Joan Jett isn't in that article &amp; then I read through the posts.&nbsp;&nbsp;I never thought of Joan as Boho, rocker chick yes.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boho-going-strong-in-los-angeles#post-933389 Wed, 15 May 2013 23:35:46 +0000 CocoLion 933389@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ LOL Rachylou, you found my slip in logic. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boho-going-strong-in-los-angeles#post-933364 Wed, 15 May 2013 23:15:16 +0000 rachylou 933364@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I never thought of Joan Jett as Boho. Hmm. Also, it occurs to me Refinery is kinda like the new face of Boho, even the Chicago edition. But anyways, I think you have nailed it, Denise. I guess I should review my closet for outdated Boho... :D<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boho-going-strong-in-los-angeles#post-933352 Wed, 15 May 2013 22:56:03 +0000 CocoLion 933352@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I think California in general loves Boho style more than other parts of the country.<br /><br />Although Boho is still alive as a style direction, I do think that some of the 70s inspired Boho themes that were popular from 2000-2011&nbsp;are looking dated. &nbsp;Baby doll tops, anything with an empire waist. &nbsp;Possibly, dramatic flares/bell bottoms (I haven't pulled mine out in over a year, and wondering what to do -- I just got them in late 2011 and then wham, flares were suddenly very "out.")<br /><br />The Boho items that are still "in" are kimono style jackets, headbands, scarves, lace &amp; crotchet, prints, long skirts, layered jewelry. &nbsp;Wide-brimmed hats, palazzo pants. &nbsp;YSL in the 70s, still in. &nbsp;Runaways from the 70s, dated.*<br /><br />* Big exception, Joan Jett's style which has become iconic and classic. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boho-going-strong-in-los-angeles#post-933328 Wed, 15 May 2013 22:11:57 +0000 annagybe 933328@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I'm not sure it's boho as much as it's vintage. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boho-going-strong-in-los-angeles#post-933179 Wed, 15 May 2013 19:18:59 +0000 ElleH 933179@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><a href="http://www.refinery29.com/echo-park-craft-fair?utm_source=email&#038;utm_medium=editorial&#038;utm_content=los-angeles&#038;utm_campaign=130515-echo-park-craft-fair" rel="nofollow">http://www.refinery29.com/echo.....craft-fair</a></p> <p>Maybe I should hang on to my boho items.
