A fake bohemian. Someone who dresses in attire typical to the bohemian lifestyle; someone who purposefully assumes the appearance of being nontraditional, artsy, and/or poor, but does so for fashion or personal appearance purposes only.

A combination of the words "faux" and "hobo" - a person of sound financial means, whether by their own employment of outside funds, who chooses to take on the appearance and level of hygiene of a vagrant or otherwise homeless individual.

Short for faux ho-bo it is the style where it takes 5 hours and 400 dollars worth of clothes and accessories to look like you're poor and just rolled out of bed.

Shortened form of "faux hobo"
A person who engages in part-time train hopping to experience the thrill of living the "underground" hobo life.

Such a person visits the underground pretending to live there.
