    Finding cheap boho stuff online might be difficult.

    There is always Ebay. Just do a search for BOHO and it will bring up a bunch of stuff. You can also initiate a search for "Hippie Patchwork" That will bring up lots of neat stuff.

    Etsy.com is another good place for clothing that is handmade. You can also fill out an alchemy form on Etsy and request something and then people will bid on your project. :)

    Not to mention all of the ladies on here that do custom orders. There is a sticky up top with websites in it. Or just post what you want and I am sure someone can make it for you.

    As far an indian stuff online There is Indian Exotica They have some really neat stuff. :) Hope this was helpful.

    "Boho"?

    I'm sorry, I'm old (by which I mean I can vote and buy beer) and out of the loop. Is that short for bohemian?

    Its modern fashion designers and magazines designing things that look "hippie" and moderning-it up. Like peasant tops with sparkles or silk, and peasant skirts the same way, and turquoise jewellry and stuff.

    If you're looking for boho, I imagine your mall would help you out (of course I'm not sure if I'm just the only town around who's loaded with this stuff!!), or Zellers and Walmart and stuff. Its pretty easy to find. If you want hippie, thrift stores and the internet are great! For either one eBay is looaded ;)

    LOL

    Yeah, I don't think of myself as old. I have a 19-year-old brother who might disagree, though. My parents aren't even old.

    My idea of old? It's going to keep changing the older I get!

    The other night I was opening a thing of pizza sauce and the expiration date said 1006 (really it's 10 06 but the numbers were too close together). I told my brother, who was over for dinner, that it expired a thousand years ago and my daughter said, "Wow! You bought that a thousand years ago? You are so old!"

    LOL

    I've found saries in stores downtown... a bit of a drive for me but nonetheless, in an East Indian neighborhood in the city or at a big mall downtown you're likely to find. otherwise, thrift stores and online are your best options. or get crackin' on makin' ur own stuff!
