fair trade fashion: bhalo






www.bhaloshop.com create fair trade clothing for women. Their cotton is hand loomed and hand embroidered by women in rural bangladesh. I love the folksy and vintage like feel of this particular collection.

I love these photographic images that Gustavo Lacerda has taken of people with Albinism. The light back grounds and the soft focus make such beautiful and etherial images.
