About BohemeFolk

Hi, I'm Victoria — the mama behind BohemeFolk.

BohemeFolk was born during a season of my life when I was deeply grateful to be a full-time mom, but also quietly craving something just for me — a way to earn a little of my own money, feel fulfilled, and still stay close to my children. I wanted something flexible, creative, and meaningful. That's when I discovered the magic of thrifting.

In the beginning, I picked up free clothing bags from Facebook and started selling items for one euro each. With every sale I learned a little more. I reinvested what I earned, started sourcing better secondhand finds from thrift shops, and slowly grew my eye for quality, brands, and what people love.

At first the money was just for fun — little extras I could use to do something special with my son while my husband worked. But as my small shop grew, and as I became a mother of three, it turned into something much bigger. My little collection became our family's main source of income.

Today my husband is home with us too. We have the freedom to walk to the beach, grab a coffee, or just enjoy our days together as a family. Thrifting gave us more than income — it gave us time, freedom, and purpose.

BohemeFolk was born out of love, creativity, and the desire for something more — and I get to share that journey now with every person who finds us.

What you'll find here

Every piece in the shop has already lived a life. Silk blouses from the 70s. Wool coats from the 80s. Leather bags with stories I'll never know in full. Hand-knit cardigans, Victorian lace, prairie dresses, slip dresses — each one found in thrift shops, flea markets, and estate clearouts across Europe.

I choose every piece by hand. I clean it, inspect it, measure it, and photograph it myself. I list what I know about it honestly — the fabric, the era, anything worth mentioning — so you can decide whether it's right for you before you commit.

Once a piece sells, it's gone. There's something lovely in that — each one becomes someone's one-of-a-kind.

Why this matters to me

I want my children to grow up knowing that beautiful things don't have to be new. That clothes can be loved, and loved again, and loved again after that. That a silk blouse from 1975 can still be the best thing in someone's wardrobe in 2026.

If you're here, maybe you already care about buying less and buying better — about dressing in pieces that have stories. I'm so glad you found your way here. Thank you for letting me share this with you.
