The Frida Dresses are back in stock online in all sizes, just in time for Spring 💐 There are 4 gorgeous examples of each size, each one completely different because no two are ever the same. The reason I began Las Niñas Textiles in 1997, was to create an Ethical income for myself whilst supporting those who are less fortunate than ourselves. Linking hands from one culture to another and bringing you along for the journey as I travel and we together support these incredible Artisans. Con mucho cariño ❤️🙏🏼🦋

Can you see those blooms that are purple? 💜 If I was able to name this incredible journey that I have had this year it would have the name “The Jacaranda Project” 💜 This leap of faith that has filled my heart and allowed me to follow my dreams even more than ever....... (beginning to live life on my terms only, freeing myself from the bits that don’t serve me ;) From the moment I arrived in México at the end of January there were these blooms on the trees, fistfuls of Purple joy welcoming me to every City, Town & Home of Friends & Artisans, like a beacon that reminded me I was on the right track, doing what I wished and it was ok. 💜 All I had to do was truly follow my dream of 22 years to spend longer in the places I have only visited twice a year in a rush, never a night with them, let alone extended hours, lunches, nor afternoons on a seat in the park, with beer and ice cream 💜 From Mexico City with @mrs_white_ceramics The Alameda heavy with such incredible beauty I have sometimes thought it was just a dream, but there are hundreds of Jacarandas in that Park that was renovated around 7 years ago int the majestic place that it is. 💜 Easter laden with the “Blooms of Christ” as it was explained to me by a bus driver in Guatemala, that always ONLY bloom at Easter 💜 Then by the beach at the end of June in the small dusty Townes i visited for relief from the heat, Puerto, Zipolete, then Oaxaca City, adorned as never before for my 2 month long homage to my heart my “long service leave” (where I worked 🦋 bc that’s what I love most in my life) 💜 Until the very last week of my journey in early August and I was on the back of a truck going to a very remote village in Guerrero and wondered what was the Purple flower I saw in the distance? As we passed my eyes welled up and I cried at the sight of the very last Jacaranda I was going to see in México my adopted home and probably until January again. 💜 This week I saw a couple of flowers under at tree at this farm, disbelieving that it could be the 8th month my life was to be blessed with these flowers I had to go back this morning to see if it was true, just two fully blooming bunches high and resplendent, ......

I know a girl who’s staying on a farm. And can’t resist trying on all the new things she’s collected on her latest buying trip. Everything all at once is the way we like it!! I blame my Italian herritage for that. Layering Vintage, Handwoven & Back Strap Loomed ítems creates a symphony of beauty hands up if you 💖 💐🐝🐸🥰🐨🐮
VIVA MÉXICO 🇲🇽 ❤️🇲🇽 Today is Mexican Independence Day!!! I live amongst this culture and I am so proud to share with my friends and family this amazing day, the warm hearts and gusto is the biggest gift that Mexicans can offer you and I’m sure why so many tourists can’t wait to go back again and again. And the reason I have been calling it my second home since 1997. 🥰🇲🇽🥰 Oh and btw this is the skirt I wore of Friday that everyone was commenting on. Mine is blue and this scarlet one which is online is so very beautiful, now some 40 years old a real Vintage gem to hold onto and wear with a proud smile as others look in awe ❤️🥰🇲🇽🥰❤️
