LadyBohemia — Bohemian Charm & Vintage Chic RSS

So lovely was my yesterday that it will carry me for a longlongest time. [caption id="attachment_9634" align="aligncenter" width="1024"] I love this collage by Minna Kulmala. And it breaks my heart to realize how much of it's feminine power is  simply lost due to inadequate photo sizes accepted by Wordpress . So friends, do yourselves a favor and left-click on this one... See my point?)[/caption] A uniquely talented artist, photographer Minna Kulmala invited me to her home, a 17th century mansion, for a full day photoshoot for LadyBohemia. This  collage is just a little sneak preview of magic to come... But I can tell you dear friends, never have I felt more beautiful than last night, watching the flaming dusk clouds sailing on the sky, above my bed of flowers ♥. No matter how high they flew, I could almost reach them. And I could have stayed in that moment forever. ~*♥*~

I needed something light & sweet to soften up this grumpy rainy day... ... and came up with hair roses. Handmade with love and care by a wonderful handicraft artist Marianlinn Le Fay. Do you think something like that could work with my hair when left long, wavy & bedheady? Mmmmm. I'll show you the results of this experiment later... ~**~

I don't need to wonder about that one anymore. You see, I've come across one. An angel, that is. This lovely lady has come to my life only recently. We have never even met but it feels as if I know her already... And deeply admire her gentleness, kindheartedness, her unique talent. She has angelwings, I have no doubt about that. One night, quite recently, I was feeling rather low. About myself, life, everything. About myself mostly. That night, my fairy friend contacted me, telling that she and her love are getting married. And would you believe this... They invited me to their wedding!! Can you imagine how touched I was... Am. It'll be a small event... And we've never even met. "It doesn't matter", she wrote. "I have a feeling that you are special." On a night.. no, on a year, when I have felt anything but. There's no further need for evidence. Angels do exist on earth. One of them just made me feel special. ~*♥*~

After yesterday, I wanted to talk to you about something pure and beautiful. And I thought about Mali. [caption id="attachment_9448" align="aligncenter" width="500"] Never ever have I come across more beautiful, more luminous portrait on motherhood. This magical photo is taken by Raluca Cozma.[/caption] The true wonder of blogging is coming across people, places, music, moments... even objects, that truly touch a little blogger's soul. One of those people is Mali, loveliest of beauties. A True Real Life Fairy Angel. The most divine bohemian princess bride on her wedding day.. Beautiful inside & out. With an artistic bohemian wedding gown, so charming, so unique... Completed by a romantic lacy veil and a fairy tiara by Mo Puccino. To me, these picture epitomize love. True, deep happiness. Such belonging. [caption id="attachment_9477" align="aligncenter" width="500"] These wedding photos, a class apart from the standard stiff poses, have in my opinion truly captured the heart and soul of this lovely couple. Mircea Ciuca Photography has waved the magic wand here.[/caption] There's magic in this lady. That's why I asked her if I could share a glimpse of her universe with you... And I must tell, the only thing more beautiful than Mali and her husband together is the couple with sweet, sweet little daughter. Unfortunately I can't show you photos of Mama Mali with her little tresor as I'm rather careful with displaying babies or children on the internet... But pictures baby Sanziana are pure bliss. Mali is the heart and soul of Samsara Chill Out Tea House's  in Cluj-Napoca, Romania. This dream garden is on my (short)list of places to visit... But perhaps I will be lucky, and meet the lovely Mali at another wedding, rather soon...♥. [caption id="" align="aligncenter" width="500"] Photo by Raluca Cozma. Ah, how I would love to have some LadyBohemia moments photographed by this artist..[/caption] ~*♥*~

"Return to things that are meaningful, and bathe inside of them. Do the things that somehow make you come alive." -Viktor Egelund- [caption id="attachment_9099" align="aligncenter" width="496"] Photo Minna Hepburn: Pintrest[/caption] I guess we all have a list of things to do in this life. What's on yours? I have so many things, most of them simple and easy, yet here they are, on the to-be-done -list. Still. Such as. Being present. In the moment. For my children. For my mother. Climb a mountaintop. Visit Tibet. Enjoy a sunset in peace and silence. Fulfill a secret dream, too fragile, too personal, too precious to tell a soul. To love. Deeply. Unconditionally. Profoundly. To wake up to sunrise, full of tomorrow. How  hard can all that be? Uh... Peculiarly very much so. ~*♥*~
