Boho in Bloom
How to Style the Season’s Most Effortless Trend

Boho style has officially evolved. Forget the over-layered, fringe-heavy festival looks of the past—2025’s bohemian aesthetic is softer, sleeker, and effortlessly cool. It’s all about intentional texture, flowy silhouettes, and a little South Texas sparkle. And here’s the best part: it pairs perfectly with the vibrant, playful spirit of Fiesta.

This season’s modern boho vibe is grounded in artisan details and natural fabrics, with a color story of sun-washed neutrals, soft desert tones, and pops of bold color. Locals are leaning into embroidered skirts, woven bags, and handcrafted accessories, blending boho ease with a splash of Fiesta flair.

In true San Antonio style, it’s about the mix. Picture a tropical twist-front crop top paired with a tiered crochet lace maxi skirt and platform espadrilles—boho meets street chic with a nod to the Majestic marquee and King William charm. Or a breezy cream maxi scattered with oversized floral embroidery, made for Southtown art walks and Fiesta picnics. There’s also the luxe side: a silky, strapless maxi bursting with bold, Fiesta-worthy swirls of turquoise, pink, and citrus, or a retro caramel-hued geometric print dress with shoulder ties—perfect for day-to-night party hopping.

 

How to Style It

  • Pair a twist-front tropical print top with a tiered crochet lace maxi skirt and platform espadrilles—boho meets San Antonio street chic.

  • Throw on a bold, patterned strapless maxi and metallic sandals for instant Fiesta glam.

  • Lean into a neutral printed dress with graphic patterns and gold jewelry for a more modern, earthy take.


This year’s boho aesthetic is carefree but curated, playful but polished. It’s about easy silhouettes, grounded textures, and joyful details that channel the energy of San Antonio’s biggest party. Because when it comes to style, Boho and Fiesta were made for each other.
