I was just smitten this month with National Geographic's article on pastoral life in Transylvania, Romania. The caption on this photo taken by Rena Effendi read that these two 17 year old girls were on their way to a wedding. I love how these girls combined traditional clothing with these 80's-style boots. To see the (much better) original photograph click the link here: National Geographic Article "Hay. Beautiful." and check out the rest of the article too, while you are at it. Many more shots of their inspired embroidery and floral patterning that is such an integral part of the lifestyle there.
