It’s been quite cold out, and a little dreary and I’m dreaming of having a suntan and lounging at the beach!  So I picked up one of my favorite books, Gypset Style, last night to give me a little hint of sunshine.  I love this book, it always gives me perfect inspiration for warm easy destination dressing for a last minute get-a-way during the cold months.

Julia Chaplin coined the term “Gypset” to refer to an international group of bonvivants, artists, and designers. There counterculture forebears include: Victorian explorers, the lost generation of hippies, and beatniks.  Gypset fuses the ease and carefree lifestyle of a gypsy with the sophistication of the jet setter.  Our LemLem and Issa Caftan’s along with AKA’s long hippie dresses are just the right mix with of course wavy beach hair and a scarf!

Sigh, now what am I going to wear today in 30 degree weather??
