Thread: Spanish Flea what to wear?

A small group of dancers from my troupe found a song by herb alpert called the Spanish flea and we decided to create a skirt dance for it. There are some OLES in the song which makes it really fun. We were wondering what we could wear for tops. We are all wearing big flowing skirts that really show when you spin but we need help with tops.
What to wear?

hmm idk the song but how about gypsy/ruffle off the shoulder tops like this:

Oh this is so fantastic. I LOVE Herb Alpert's "Spanish Flea"....when I was a kid my brother & I used to dance around to it! I always thought it was such a hilarious song! Wear a gypsy top (like Sharif wear)!

I love all those songs he did in the sixties! I would go with the ruffle top too and big hoop earrings, maybe even a fan! Sounds like a real fun time.

Rachel Brice and Mardi Love did this at Tribal Fest 2007 - what a hoot!
