I am finally back from the holidays in El Salvador - sorry that it's taken me a few days to get back into the weekly routine of blogging, but here I am again : ) On my return from the holidays, we decided to head over to the London's Fashion & Textiles Museum latest exhibition dedicated to Mexican textiles, their traditional Rebozos and its influence within art, culture and fashion - 'The classic Mexican shawl made famous in 20th century culture by artist Frida Kahlo'. The exhibition counted with unlimited inspiration for someone like me - passionate about colourful folk art, tales and textiles - as you can see above.

Finalmente estoy de regreso de las vacaciones en El Salvador - lo siento por haber tomado un tiempo para volver a la rutina de mis posts semanales, pero aquí estoy de nuevo : ) Al regreso de las vacaciones, decidimos ir a visitar la última exhibición del Fashion & Textiles Museum en Londres dedicada a los textiles Mexicanos y sus tradicionales rebozos, su influencia dentro del arte, la cultura y la moda. 'El clásico rebozo mexicano que se hizo famoso en la cultura del siglo 20 por famosas artistas como Frida Kahlo'. La exhibición contaba con ilimitada inspiración para alguien como yo, apasionada del colorido arte folklórico, cuentos y textiles - como pueden ver arriba.
