The rebel in me understands why she boldly wore her unibrow and moustache -she even darkened both to show she doesn't care about feminine beauty ideals, as a woman and a mother I feel deeply for her void, wanting children so much and not being able to have any. as an educator I admire her for showing girls (especially in her native land) that a woman can reach the top in a man ruling world.I have a collection inspired by her coming up.

In most parts of the world a similar costume -a long skirt - loose blouse combo exists but it is often considered unfashionable or tacky. It is interesting to note how Frieda made it not just fashionable but iconicDivya Nhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17522282917004358863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8292459454390876053.post-80767604529592082042017-02-09T08:32:26.030+01:002017-02-09T08:32:26.030+01:00Hello Maya,

Sigh...). I love those bright and colourful garments and I admire the audacity to wear them.<br />Be it as it may, Frida's colourscheme is so full of life, strength and courage, it's impossible not to be touched by it.<br />Have a lovely day,<br />MarjanAtelier Marie-Luciennehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08389388580344673063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8292459454390876053.post-10977914217253689782017-02-09T02:26:17.776+01:002017-02-09T02:26:17.776+01:00Interesting and surprising to know that you admire...Interesting and surprising to know that you admire Frida so much. I have another blog friend that lives in New Mexico, USA who is an artist and is extremely fond of Frida. I can't tell how many paintings she has done of Frida and shared on her blog. Don't you just love the way she dressed. And don't you wonder why she kept her eyebrows. I have those same eyebrows all my life...just like my father's and had to tame and pluck them all the time.<br />xx, CarolCarol- Beads and Birdshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11062821517519300477noreply@blogger.com
