[Toua Taru]

I have the same problem as Adriana when clicking the links. It's weird because links provided only half of the address is clickable.

Facebook is infamous for it's picture issues.  Try putting them up on photobucket or flickr -both free.

Found you Capt! http://www.facebook.com/CaptMarga#!/CaptMarga Great pics!

Hmm although there are only a few pictures and I don't think they're the ones you listed in the previous post.

Marga you look great!

Here is some of the things that would be fun and not to mention comfy!

A ghawazee vest- super cute but also it looks great with a bodice like Marga wears it


Here are a few things that I like for a more for fun gypsy look.

Harem pants are good too they can be worn under a skirt on cooler days or with fun scarves on the not so cool days

Personally I trip on them when they are too full in the legs but then again I trip on nothing too.

Cropped bodice- Yet again its very comfy but its cool and it looks very good with a gypsy look and a life save on hot days. Normal bodices also go very well.


I personally like the Stevie Nicks kind of scarves all fringe and flowing


Sorry about the double image I fixed it.

Most of them not taken by me... thus I can't put them in albums...

If you can access any of them, grab them... I'm not at a computer where I can do so right now.   Most are not in an album, they are loose.  FB makes me nuts sometimes...

I have no idea if the garb in the Scarborough Rom Costume Parade is H/A or not, but I just loved the pictures!  To me, it is what I think of when I think of a gypsy. 

Whether or not they actually wore something like that, it doesn't matter to me.  I just loved all of their garb!   

[Toua Taru]

Lys - these are great shots of everyone! It definitely helped.

Lady Renee - I agree even if they aren't H/A the garbs are fabulously portrayed.

Nope, not H/A but cute. It looks to mix the 20th Century concept of "Renaissance" (ie, Hollywood) with some Turkish garments.  The Gypsies and Turks are two VERY distinct cultural groups that, unfortunately, are put into the "other" in the Western mindset.  

I do have a page on 16th C Turkish if anyone is interested in that.  http://isabelladangelo.webs.com/turkishcoat.htm  I have links to lotsa pictures. Please be mindful that this is Turkish and not Gypsy.
