Gypsies Tramps and Thieves...












In the spirit of playing dress up I can't help but look to the best accessorized ladies of the land...Gypsies! While Cher is the classic American Gypsy and I love her music, I think her hair was her best accessory, but since I do not have mile long legs or a waist that can use bracelets as belts...I turn to the more traditional gypsy for inspiration.There is something beautiful about all the colors, textures and patterns that a gypsy lady is not afraid to mix together. Those are the very same ideas that make a house a home, mixing textures to create depth and warmth in a room through a variety of woods, metals and fabrics will instantly add a dimension of interest. While mixing patterns through fabric add warmth and details that help a room gain its own identity.
Even Benjamin Moore has jumped on the gypsy band wagon by introducing Gypsy Pink to their collection... obviously I LOVE IT!!!
And no matter what your home decor there is always some room in your closet for the gypsy look...or at the very least your jewelry box!  So now what's your excuse???
