Get the Gypsy Magic

There is something inexplicably exotic and romantic about the gypsy woman. Their striking looks have a mysterious quality about them, not to mention their stories of travel, music, even magic.

My favorite part about the whole idea of a gypsy are their clothes– colorful scarves, long skirts, boots for both traveling and dancing, even the bangles. No wonder they’ve been a constant inspiration for runway looks all over the world. The ‘gypsy’ has found offshoots in the bohemian or hobo look and have become a constant in the world of fashion. We found some gypsy-inspired pieces which you can mix up with your wardrobe and put a dramatic spin on your outfits!

Lace Up Side Zip Platform Boots, $22.95, GoJane

If you’re going for gypsy, be authentic by donning lace up platform boots. I like this pair because of the side zip (modern innovation convenience!) and it looks electric with the right maxi skirt.

‘Maxi Boho’ Skirt, $30.00, Paper Doll on Nordstrom

The flowy and colorful skirt of the gypsy is replicated in this maxi boho skirt with bright tribal prints and a wide ruffle hem. The two other designs are equally exotic and thrilling!

Metallic Jewel T-strap Sandal, $16.50, GoJane

Low-heeled metallic sandals also go well with the gypsy ensemble. I like the faux jewel embellishments look positively tribal and chic.

Printed Chiffon Top, $59.00m, Sisley Young, Nordstrom

A light colored top but with stylish print and batwing sleeves will put additional gypsy touches to your look. It’s a fresh top that will billow prettily in the wind. Lovely!

Tiered Perforated Kiltie Wedge, $23.50, GoJane

It is only right that wedges have a place in this blog post. It’s very bohemian and the canary yellow is a nice burst of color. I can imagine it peeking from underneath your maxi skirt– nice!

Beaded Rhinestone Fabric Bangle Set, $16.90, GoJane

It won’t be a gypsy look without the bangles and this set has a whopping 13 of them! They’re a stylish mix of rhinestones, cloth wraps, textured silver, pearls and multicolored beads.

All featured clothes are available on Nordstrom. Shoes and accessories are available on GoJane.
