Change Your Style WITHOUT Shopping: 4 Boho Chic + 4 Classic Minimalist Style Outfits

TICKETS to my live #shopyourcloset event: msbeltempo.com...
Ciao everyone! This week I'm sharing how to transform your style from boho chic style to classic minimalist style without shopping or spending money. Simple styling tips can help you get the most out of your wardrobe and update closet essentials and basics. I've created a lookbook of basic outfits and transform them into boho style and classic minimalist style.
Let me know if you prefer the boho or classic looks!
On this channel, I share #slowfashion​​​​​ and #sustainablefashion​​​​​ tips that center around how to shop your closet, and restyling pieces you already own. I also spotlight brands that I believe in every now and then. I believe in #creativityoverconsumption​​​​​, and that we all have the power to be conscious consumers.
Slow fashion looks different for everyone, and I'm so grateful you share this space with me!
Alyssa

I have a theory that people are often drawn to the boho style because it represents a simpler, more innocent lifestyle compred to the hurried, stressed-out lives they often lead. We are told to dress for our real lives, but I think people dream through their closets a little too.

[@shobok7186]

Agreed. Flowy siluettes and fun colors and accessories. I do it for the princess feel and magpie needs ✌️

[@AlyssaBeltempo]

ooh love this thought - thank you for sharing!

[@Angie-ci1lp]

Boho dressing IS FREEDOM! Freedom from FITTING INTO FASHION FADS AND DESIGNER EVERYTHING! Boho equals EARTHY CONNECTIONS ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️It

[@AnantyaV]

It's just so much fun and creativity. At the office I wear classic and sleek outfits. Whilst chique, it's a bit boring as well

[@athag1]

You look great in the boho style. At 57 I've decided to just do me when it comes to fashion. I'm boho with a touch of classic.

Love that!

And I'm right ahead of you at 64. I've always been a boho gal, leftover from my teens & early 20s in the 1970s, but I love the classic look. It just doesn't come as naturally. This is a great video!

[@AlyssaBeltempo]

Amazing!

[@NatalieeeJayna]

@@AlyssaBeltempo thank you! It makes it easier to pick out outfits, & I see combinations I can make with my outfits that I didn't before. I'm not sure if you've ever explained this in any of your videos, but when I have a piece of clothing that I don't know how to style, I find it helpful to find a similar piece online & see how they are styled there. :)

[@ilap381]

this was SO useful, but aren't all of your videos?! I didn't know but I apparently have some boho tendencies myself (I tie my shirts a lot, and I use scarves!) I watched your latest video about your career trajectory and I am so glad you are teaching all of us how to shop our closet instead of working in finance :) really, thank you!

[@AlyssaBeltempo]

Oooh I'm so glad you found it helpful! And thank you so much for the kind words they mean a lot! xx

[@hibazafran1765]

FINALLY!!!! A boho theme! Yeay! I’m definitely a sleek boho style. The prints and overly 70s kitsch aren’t my thing, but the textures, proportions, flowyness and “boho feel” are definitely me. Thank you!

[@AlyssaBeltempo]

yay! So glad you liked it and resonated with this one! Thank you for watching!

[@Wednesdaywoe1975]

I would say classic Italian with vintage 70s vibes. So I loved a lot of this! The wrap dress with boots, the jeans, tee and trench coat, the high waisted pants and tied shirt.

[@AlyssaBeltempo]

Oh I LOVE that style description - sounds beautiful Elana!

[@susanschreyer7654]

I'm from the hippie era, so Boho really speaks to me. However, I do love classic style and sport that look when it suits me. It was instructive to have you point out how to do either with the same basics. Thanks! I'm going to go play with my clothes!

[@AlyssaBeltempo]

Yay! Have fun shopping your closet Susan! xx

[@litzaztil7932]

I love this kind of videos. I can choose my outfit depending on my mood and my inspiration of the day. Because they change according to my good night of sleep or the weather or the state of mind I wake up on!!!

Excellent video, as usual. As a Parisian I prefer the classic looks but I admire the boho style you put together and your creativity

Thank you for the high praise! It was fun to try something new but classic is also more my style ;)

[@remmirath42]

I'm somewhere in between the two. I love colors and patterns and textures, but I wear minimal layers and accessories because otherwise I look like a cat who runs around covered in random clothes after taking a nap in the laundry basket.

I lean to classic, minimalist styling but loved all the outfits you put together. I especially love how you took the same base pieces and created different style vibes, all by shopping your closet. So glad you left finance as I look forward to all your videos and shop your closet looks.

[@indupartha9423]

I think I always want to lean classic because it looks so put together but boho is what makes my heart happy!

[@AlyssaBeltempo]

aw i love that! It's good to know what makes you feel best and there's always a way to incorporate the two! xx

[@rigleiaknapp3227]

This video is so perfect! I actually call my style classic boho chic. I would love to dress in a boho chic style more often, but it is a bit too dramatic as a mom of 3 teenage boys! So I end up dressing more classic preppy/sporty! I am not a minimalist, but I have a curated conscious classic closet that is about 90% second hand/thrifted, so I love your thinking mind!

[@mj_dolman5122]

Thanks for another fun video. I'm something in between a boho and classic style type, and trying to figure out what to call that. I lean more towards classic, simple but not structured shapes, while I love to make a statement with colour, prints and accessories. The pure boho stereotype feels too volumous and draggy for me, and reminds me of the smell of patchouli which I am allergic to! Pure classic makes me feel like my body doesn't fit the neat and tidy style aesthetic. It seems to me most youtube style influencers are classic types, which makes sense because their advice can at least partly apply to many people. However I find it particularly helpful and inspiring when you show the contrast between different style types.

[@christiana_mandalynn]

I’m definitely boho and a little hippie. Which makes trying to be classic really hard, when I’m drawn to the earthy, freestyle, dance-to-the-beat-of-your-own-drum kind of clothing and movement. So your tips and breakdowns of the boho look are *absolutely* transformative for me!!!!!! Classic with a bohemian twist!!

[@amyli092]

I'm so glad you made this video and made the bohemian style your own, Alyssa! I think you did well, and your description of the boho style being free-form and individualistic with lots of layering and accessorizing is very much on point. 😄❤

[@AlyssaBeltempo]

Thank you Amy! It was a challenge but fun :) Thanks for watching! xx

[@luckaty]

Boho suits you beautifully! Classic is lovely but the punch of boho style works especially well with your slim physique.... beautiful either way!

[@AlyssaBeltempo]

So kind thank you!

[@haelsank787]

I love both styles, maybe a bit more the boho one. But what I love more is to see the same piece of clothes in very different styles! Thanks a lot for this kind of ideas.

Thanks for giving us the tools and being a role model on how to have fun with what you have and to stop obsessing about what you don’t! A great tip that applies to anything in life!

[@hiawathia81]

Im a hybrid of the two. I lean towards boho because to me boho style shows more personality and fun. Other times I lean toward classic looks like the styling with the dress. But most of the time I have elements of both in my everyday looks. Great video

Classic feminine would best define my personal style, I go for more tailoring on the bottom and keep the volume down as I am an hourglass shaped girl, I can dip my toe into bohemian in strictly accessories, jewelry and scarf additions.

[@sunnyday3160]

Boho usually has alot of pattern and color. I live in southwest US and see it alot. Most fashion bloggers don't seem to live in desert or warmer climates. I love classic styles but wouldn't wear much black when it is over 100 degrees. Boho just feels better on those days. Like your channel though.

[@hennahannnah]

Agreed! I always think I *must* have a fabulous blazer for a wardrobe basic, but summers in Texas really don’t offer much opportunity for that kind of layering.

[@MistyyLou]

That’s so true it’s hard to find fashion bloggers from hot climates!

[@DestinyFerreira29]

i cant believe how versatile your clothes are! i know styling and accessorizing are huge but seeing the contrasts side by side really sharpens the focus. wow!! great job!!! i used to be a bit more free spirited in my style but as i get a bit older... im 50 now... i definitely veer towards a much more classic approach although i do still appreciate a boho vibe on occasion! how can i not?? the colors, fringe, etc its all so fun and punchy!!!! i so look forward to your videos!!

Omg truly creative💗my heart says I’m boho my mind says nope you’re too old stay classic.

[@erikareginato3145]

Same thoughts here. I’m 53 and classic overall. But Summer I add printed tunics (colorful strips, calm tye-dyed or flower printed big or small) to my classic pants or capris. I also add multiple bracelets and a less structured bag to give a more relaxed and boho vibe to my look. I fell fresh! You should try!

[@altitudeiseverything3163]

My late 50s was when I seriously reconsidered my style, as I realized that ‘feminine/classic’ suddenly felt aging and, more importantly, somehow inauthentic (for me). I wanted my style to both reflect the strength and confidence that had come with life experience *and* recapture a bit of the “rocker chick” of my youth. Voilà! . . . “Edgy classic”! Blazers, simple skirts & dresses, classic jeans, wide-but not too wide-slacks, mostly solid neutral colors, etc., but always with 1 or 2 edgier pieces added. Not-over-the-top-combat boots, converse-style sneakers, black leather moto jacket, black skinny jeans, etc. My hair, silver and cut in a sleek angular style, enhances the look. *Why not? Life is short.* I need please no one but myself. Now getting dressed is fun again! 👍 Bottom line: don’t let what others might think stop you from following your “heart.” You’re never “too old” to wear what makes you happy. ❤️

[@celiathirlwall3329]

Hi Alyssa! You obviously have allot of fun with your videos!! I definitely prefer the classic chic!! I've got to add though that you look great in it all!! Happy Sunday!!

LOVED this! Loved the side by side and seeing how I can style stuff I already have in completely different styles. Love love love.

[@pajamamama5965]

Love it! I admire people who can pull off boho successfully. It can be so artsy and interesting to look at. However I am an overweight hourglass with very large bust, and I want to style myself to draw attention to my face, neck, shoulders and collarbone, as well as detract from the disproportionate sized bust. That goal challenges me to be a minimalist classic dresser but allows me to focus on fun makeup, jewelry and colorful tops. It has been a long journey to understanding how to dress myself with style, and I am still learning.

[@maryokeefe5351]

Love this! While I am mostly a classic dresser, with a little dramatic or edgy thrown in, in summer I go total luxe boho. Think St. Barth or St-Tropez, moving from a mainly black Canadian winter to a mostly white palette and luxe hippy jewellery. A girl needs some variety!

[@heathervalentine8222]

I am definitely more of a classic dresser!! I love what you did to demonstrate the subtle contrast between them within the same looks.

[@susanhart7003]

This video was so fun! Myself, I’ve always been more tailored and classic. Even as a child, mom and I would go shopping and all the dresses were so frou-frou. We’d end up at the fabric store and she’d make me a more tailored dress. I’m now 70 and make most of my clothes. Recently I took a class learning to use all the decorative stitches on my sewing machine.........so I’ve done some embellishments on my tops.....whoa I’ve gone boho!

[@conniepleasantnails]

So fun…I lean more to classic but … I have a pieces that I can “crossover” to both just like you did here. I thrifted a bohemian vibe sweater vest that buttons in the front and it’s my go-to sweater to throw a long sleeve t-shirt under, or a balloon sleeve blouse and a fun earring or long necklace & flare jeans. I also love love love a modern simple dress with a funky shoe or necklace

[@balakris2695]

I lean both ways! And I love your channel. Thank you for all you do, and for who you are!

[@ditsaa]

This was so helpful to me to put into words what I was seeking. Boho Chic is at my heart and core, but for the office, I usually have to tone it down to Classic. I wish to keep adding boho flairs or pieces to my office wardrobe to keep the Boho in it, even if subdued for a corporate workplace.

[@carlenec6209]

What a great video. I'm definitely a classic girl but so interesting to see the difference in styling with just a few tweaks. Outfits all look beautiful on you. Enjoy your week x

[@Jinbanters]

I have dabbled in both but I keep coming back to the classic chic as I feel more confident and put together in it. Maybe I am doing the boho-chic wrong, but the crisp look of the classic styles just pulls me in. That's why am here to learn these elements and themes that you explain and deconstruct when you look at a style

[@karelmillard9854]

Great video and breakdown of both styles. Also, thank you for giving us enough time to read and study the looks a bit. I tend toward classic with an edge in the winter, and classic with a touch of boho in the summer months. 😍✨

I’m 4’11 and elements of both of these styles are my personal style. I’m soooo obsessed with the looks you’ve made. Bam!!!!! When you were speaking about textures in boho and then the fit of being as tailored as some pieces can be is just everything in my heart!!!!

Boho resonates a lot with me although some classics feel like home when I’m seeking simplicity and elegance.

I connect Boho with Stevie Nicks. I love it, but I also love classic looks, like the glamour days of old Hollywood.

The dress boho style with the hair gave me classic Cher vibes...ALL the styles were BANGIN!!

[@AlyssaBeltempo]

[@lena1122]

So much fun to see , I dress accordingly to the place I’m going . Times are different now tho . If I’m going to a meeting I wear classic if I’m going to a outdoor event or garden setting then bohemian if it’s a children’s event more bohemian if it’s a festival bohemian doctors appointment classic , also I dress differently by season

[@elfrafrat-os5fu]

Ho davvero apprezzato come partendo dalla stessa base tu sia riuscita a creare diversi stili: mi piacerebbe vedere una seconda parte a questo video! Grande creatività. Ciao :)

[@kirrisolly-slade1313]

Love seeing you do the boho looks! Love your videos Alyssa!

[@desiloren]

Super video again! I learned from you, that I am classic with a boho-twist 🥰 Regards from The Netherlands.

[@jayneteal-jeffery6283]

I’m not sure where I’m leaning but I’m enjoying the music and the process!

[@julierose6652]

Thank you! What a great video. I have always loved Bohemian but realize I could never pull it off because I don't have thick flowy hair and I feel it is essential to the look. I guess I'll stick to my dramatic classic

[@pamelakellow4225]

I don't think that long hair is required! You could wrap a scarf around your head. Or wear long, funky earrings or large hoops. Round or oversized sunglasses would work too. I see many bohemian styles that are worn by women with shorter hair. Don't hold yourself back!

[@chelsealee9459]

I am definitely a style play dress up and wear both, but love my jewelry layered boho style. I came by it naturally, my grandmother wore at least 9 rings on her hands till she died.

[@AlyssaBeltempo]

Oh love that, your grandma sounds like a very cool lady :)

[@ritaweltevreden5596]

Lovely as always. I loved the way you looked in the dress with the tall boots and also the outfit with the scarf. Ik guess I am more of a classic dresser with a very large collection of scarves. Always look forward to your videos on Sunday. Much love from The Netherlands. XOX

[@AlyssaBeltempo]

Thank you so much Rita, I'm so glad you are still liking the channel! xx

[@ritaweltevreden5596]

Of course I still like the channel. Are you kidding me!

[@Silentmari3]

I would love to see this type of video again, but with an edgy/rocker chick type of style vibe! I'm not sure what to compare it against, though.

[@altitudeiseverything3163]

Classic is a good ‘control group’ in any comparison of outfits. I’d love to see that video as well! My own signature style might best be described as “edgy classic”: classic, tailored outfit, with 1 or 2 ‘edgy’ elements thrown in to keep things dynamic and add personality.
