QUEEN OF THE ROAD

 

"Life is one big road with lots of signs. So when you riding through the ruts, don't complicate your mind. Flee from hate, mischief and jealousy. Don't bury your thoughts, put your vision to reality. Wake Up and Live!" - Bob Marley

MONDAY MUSE: TALITHA GETTY

 

"I am not the same having seen the moon shine on the other side of the world." - Mary Anne Radmacher

 

In the late 60's fashion icon Talitha Getty consistently looked the part of hippie gypset in colorful prints, kaftans, and furs, her Boho-Chic style and Moroccan influences set her apart from the rest, a style that has inspired modern-day muses such as Sienna Miller and Kate Moss.

BOHEMIAN CHIC

1970's Bohemian Chic for Fall 2015
 

Effortless but luxurious, easy but spirited, modern but with a definite retro twist, the bohemian aesthetic goes back to its roots for fall 2015, drawing from the 1970's woman. Keeping some of spring’s impossible romance, fall’s boho chic is all about luxe silhouettes and rich fabrics, long sleeved maxi dresses, shearling jackets and vests, lush velvets and about all-over prints and lavish layers, about earthy shades and charming folk motifs.

FESTIVAL BOUND: SILVES MEDIEVAL FESTIVAL

 

 

 

 

FESTIVAL GETAWAY: SILVES MEDIEVAL FESTIVAL

 

 One of my favorite festivals to visit takes place in the beautiful Castle of Silves, Portugal.  Its one of Portugal's most dynamic and renowed Medieval Fairs. The festivities run for 10 days in August. Visitors take part in recreations of activities as they may have happened centuries ago when Silves was the capital of the Kingdom of the Algarve. Moorish and Christian traditions are on display throughout the grounds of the castle. You will experience music, veiled dancers, snake charmers, jugglers, acrobats, nobleman and ladies parading in their finest costumes. Amazing regional foods are available at a number of food vendors.

One of my favorite things to do is wander through the castle and check out the amazing array of bohemian products: clothing, accessories (most of them handmade and one of a kind)  and decor. I am in Boho heaven.

I hope you enjoy this little sneak peek into my beautiful home country of Portugal. Have an amazing weekend, and take time to explore your surroundings... :)

Tchau, Carla
