Thinking of Frida and at last my etsy shop is opened...




My dear friend Gym organized a movie night in her barn the other day
and we watched Frida.
I've never seen the film and although it is a current cliché to become a Frida fan,
I confess I admire more than ever her appetite for life in spite of physical pain.

Watching her photos over and over,
I drool over her colorful and exuberant clothes and head dress
and the seductive poetry of her lifestyle....
and the tons of creative energy...
I could easily shout....
Frida, you are my role model !


Ma Gym bien aimée nous a organisé une soirée film très sympa l'autre jour
et j'ai vu
Frida pour la première fois.
Tout en étant consciente qu'il est de plus en plus cliché de s'afficher fan de Frida,
j'avoue que plus que jamais, j'admire son envie de vivre malgré la douleur physique.


Je ne me lasse pas de regarder ses photos.
Je suis fascinée par ses tenues et ses coiffures colorées et exubérantes
mais aussi par la poésie séductrice de son style de vie...

et des tonnes d'énergie créatrice...
Vraiment, j'ai presque envie de crier...
Frida tu es mon modèle !



Now, my modest news which is down to earth is : at last I've reopened my etsy shop
and it's here. (but I must say I'm not too happy with my photos..oh dear)

Et ma modeste petite nouvelle est que ça y est, j'ai enfin réouvert ma boutique etsy et c'est
(il faut quand même que je vous dise que je ne suis pas très contente de mes photos)

Oh I liked that movie a lot :)
There is big Frida Kahlo exhibition on in Vienna right now and I went to see it with my daughter who is a big fan of her. The best part of the exhibition were all the photos of her :)

Dear Lala, Congratulations on re-opening your Etsy shop. Your creations are always one-of-a-kind, so different and so lovely and artistic. Am off to teach a 3-day workshop but will soon spend a little time in your Etsy shop.

To me Frida is the equivalent to passion, that's why she inspires me and why I like her so much.
Good luck with your etsy shop!

Salut Lala, I've just had a look at your etsy shop and I think it's fabulous and your photos are lovely - well done! I'm sure Frida is a fantastic role model for any creative woman out there, a real inspiration. Have a lovely weekend, Love from London xo

Oh! Frida is just ..... well Frida. I adore her. I saw an exhibition of her work a few years ago in London and was mesmerised. I spent hours there. I have even done a talk about her in Spanish - a great challenge. Glad you love her, too.

P.S. Bought some notebooks at last! Thank you for letting me know that the shop is open.

Frida est l'une de mes "héroines" préférées. Son personnage est tellement spécial , tellement artistique et dramatique.
De plus , elle est mexicaine ...
j'adore sa maison à Mexico et celle de Diego n'est pas mal non plus.
Tu m'as donné envie de revoir le film
