Bohemia

Awwwwww! That is exactly what I thought when I popped into Bohemia the other day. This children’s boutiques just screams cuteness and many of the toys are too nice to let your terrible tots play with, they’d be better used as ornaments.
They had a huge section with wooden and fabric food and I was tempted to buy a cuddly banana but seeing as I’m not under 3 I thought it was best not to as I’d probably end up wondering why I’d bought it in the first place. They also had a wooden cake stand with a wooden cake display on it, it was gorgeous! There was also a good selection of Eric Carle toys and books and as I love the Hungriest Caterpillar this was a huge plus for me.
In addition the children’s clothing and toys there’s also a small ladies fashion section with a rail of pretty tops and dresses. In addition to this there’s a little vanity table that has Paul and Joe make-​up displayed on it beautifully.
I also have to mention the staff who were lovely and really friendly, when I popped in it was two girls working and they couldn’t have been nicer, chatting away to all the customers and making everyone feel really welcome indeed, very knowledgeable about the products and seemed to really like working here too. Definitely deserving of five stars.

Bohemia is another one of those shops I try averting my eyes from when I walk by. Because things in there tend to be just a bit too pretty. And I’m not the only one who thinks this. My friends and I always try very hard not to ogle the shop on our walk from Scotmid to my house and vice-​versa. We avert our eyes because things in there are pretty and not cheap at all. Sometimes, though, there are those rare occasions when there’s something at a reasonable price. My flatmate and another friend bought me a gorgeous dress for only 15 pounds, while most dresses there are in the 40 pound price range, if not more.
They also sell children’s clothes. I’m not sure if this is specific to the Marchmont area (there are lots of middle-​class parents in this area as well as students).
The women who work there have always been really kind to me. The dress my friends bought me had a tiny fault and they sent it off to get repaired at the tailor’s for me. I don’t know if this was standard, but I’m just glad I didn’t have to argue about it at all. I’m not a fan of confrontation, you see.
So if you do have some money to spend, this is a great place to get something, as the shop advertises, bohemian and dressy.

Bohemia is a lovely boutique in Marchmont and is a really nice shop to browse round. It sells a small range of clothes for women and children. It also has a lovely range of gifts and toys. I have bought several gifts in here when friends have babies. They also have some nice jewellry and books too. Its a nice place to go if you want a gift thats a bit different.

We love this shop and visit regularly as we live nearby. ‘Charlie and Lola’ is put on the telly for my daughter, leaving me to have a look around… Lots of things, bags, trinkets, cosmetics, toiletries, charlie and lola, a great range of quirky children’s clothes to name but a few of the things they sell. My only complaint is that the quality of some of the grown up clothes isn’t reflective of the price but that said there are a lot of really nice clothes! A great place to get nice gifts.
Not made it up to the new shop as yet but assume it’s pretty much more of the same so in that case, it would be well worth a visit!

Bohemia is a boutique shop on Roseneath Street just up from the meadows in Marchmonts shopping parade. It can be reached by bus on the 24 and 41. Bohemia has some beautiful, beautiful items for sale. It also has some very, very expensive items. They sell a selection of women’s clothes and jewellery all very beautiful and suitably enough in a rather boho theme. You’ll also find an array of various accessories and household accessories, all very cute boho style, but do not expect a reasonable price! The cutest things in this shop by far are the kids clothes though. They sell a variety of European kids designer clothes that are difficult to resist.

Just discovered Bohemias new store in Edinburgh. Feels like walking into someones studio or their flat, fabulous selection of cashmeres and moroccan leather things. Amazing boots and old style carpet bags. Could spend ours and £££s.

It’s always a real treat to visit, I can spend hours in there!
I love how they constantly update the stock. And there is never many of any particular thing so you know that you aren’t going to bump into people wearing the same thing.
It’s my first port of call for gifts and treats for myself :)

I love this cool lifestyle boutique. There is always something new to tempt whenever you go in. I have my eye on some lovely tunics by French brand American Vintage & hip Bensimon tennis pumps. Gorgeous Paul & Joe cosmetics too.
Laid back vibe & music makes for a great shopping experience!

This is a great little gift and clothing shop aimed at those shopping for something a little different; a little special — or dare I say it — a little expensive. YES, it is on the slightly pricey side, but they do have some really unique and beautiful pieces — particularly the hand-​made jewellery. Also, there is a little cubby-​corner for children to relax in while Mummy (or Daddy!) shops and ‘Charlie and Lola’ is usually playing on a DVD player for them! A really charming little shop set away from the bustle of Princes Street.
