    "Want to spice up your wardrobe? Hi, I'm Johanna Krynytzky with Hip Expressions Belly Dance Studio in St. Petersburg, Florida. Do you want to add a gypsy look to your fashion? There are many different ways you can do this. Now, when I use the term gypsy, I don't mean any disrespect to different gypsy people throughout the world who have different customs and different traditions. What I'm referring to is a more romanticized term gypsy which we use here in America to imply a certain look, a certain romanticism, a certain flare, a certain flirt to our customs. So there are many different elements of a gypsy custom that you can add kind of in to your every day wear. For instance, this top with the flared sleeves, add that with jeans, you can wear that out. Just by adding a bunch of jewelry to whatever you're wearing makes it look a little more gypsy or little more fun, a little more wild. Big earrings. Right? Any sort of sash around the hips especially if it has some fringe on it. That's always a nice addition. So throw this on over a pair of jeans; a little top like this and go out about town. You're good to go! Another great element you can add is putting a flower in your hair or a scarf around your hair. These two elements will dress up the top part of your body to make it match what else is going on. Or again just wear a plain top and jeans and then add something extra to your head. Some special jewelry, a flower, a scarf and that will add a little bit more of a flirty flair to your outfit. I'm Johanna Krynytzky with Hip Expressions Belly Dance Studio, helping you dress up."
