Julia Chaplin’s gypsy caravan makes its second stop with the upcoming launch of her latest book, Gypset Travel (Assouline, ISBN: 9781614280620). Following the success of her 2009 Gypset Style, Chaplin takes readers to her 10 most coveted places around the world for you to relax, explore…and be the envy of all your friends.
Chaplin is a modern day Talitha Getty, exploring the magical hidden enclaves that are haunted by gypsy jet-setters, a.k.a. gypsetters – the portmanteau she coined while first covering these chic nomads. Her book meanders through such places as Lamu, Kenya; José Ignacio, Uruguay; and Todos Santos, Mexico. The pages are filled with lush photos of glamorous bohemian hideouts and personal stories and tips from Chaplin and her cohorts. Not only are the interiors and architecture a perfect example of boho-luxe living, but the outfits worn by Chaplin’s subjects define what she calls “understated glamour and experimental luxury” – a heady mix of ethnic influences, delicate fabrics and clashing prints.
Gypset Travel‘s launch party will be held at the Crow’s Nest on Montauk (another one of the book’s featured locations) on Saturday August 25th.
For even more gypset style, head to Chaplin’s blog to see her travel notes and her hippie couture line of apparel and home wares.
Hello,
My name is Carmen Johnson and I have a website named ishareyougo.com that will be launching in October 2012. The website is for people who would like to share the places that they have been, and their passions for sharing photos in a social setting by allowing others with the same interest to subscribe to their profile. This allows a conversation to be generated and keeping tabs on each others photo shares. There are many categories….travel, food and beverages, fashion, and many other categories. There is also a blog section that allows people to blog about whatever they tastefully choose.
I would love to have any advice that you can give me, and I would also love for your to join our free site as well. No personal information is shared and conversations are kept between the 2 members only…….not like other sites that shows your conversation to anyone who is a friend on your profile.
Thanks, and I look forward to hearing from you.
Carmen Johnson
