May Outfit of the Month. Celebrating Mexico

A bit late this month, I apologize.  I wanted to get this out in time for Cinco de Mayo.  I guess we'll just have to have another celebration today!

Our fifth stop this year will be to Mexico!

In the Jalisco region of Mexico, the presence of native Indian, Spanish and Moorish traditions resulted in a rich, mixed performance culture typified by the hallmark folklorico dresses worn by women dancers, wide-brimmed hats for men and merry mariachi bands.

Do you celebrate Cinco de Mayo?  Do you have any of these cultures in your heritage?

April Outfit of the Month and Deals

This photo shoot made me hungry for the best kind of food - Italian.

Our fourth stop this year will be to Southern Italy!

This is a traditional outfit perfect for dancing the Tarentelle.  The Tarentelle is a dance that involves holding hands and dancing in a circle. The music gets faster and faster as the song goes on.

It is considered unlucky to dance the Tarantella alone so it is often danced by couples or by two women.  - Ottowaitalians.com

I think we should all have some spaghetti with meatballs tonight to celebrate this month's outfit.  What do you say?!

Just a Day in March

"It was on of those March days, when the sun shines hot and the wind blows cold; when it is summer in the light, and winter in the shade." - Charles Dickens

Some drawing time...

 Time for a scavenger hunt!

March Outfit of the Month, a Trip to Ghana and BOGO

Maybe it is wishful thinking but I thought for this month I'd do something from a warm country and maybe it would bring some warmth here to Idaho.  It's been a long, cold winter and we are all ready for some sunshine!

Our third stop this year will be to Ghana.

In West Africa, a kaftan or caftan is a pull-over woman's robe.[1] In French, this robe is called a boubou, pronounced boo-boo. The boubou is the traditional female attire in many West African countries including Senegal, Mali, and Ghana. The boubou can be formal or informal attire. The formality of the kaftan depends upon the fabric used to create it.

This is my kind of outfit!  Doesn't it look so comfy and pretty?
