fashion icon and muse...




i was perusing my usual gossip and fashion sites today and saw this photo of a stunning woman with lots of bangle bracelets (fyi bangles are in again) from the twenties.  of course i had to google her and find out more of this woman's life.  the woman in the photo was nancy cunard.  she was a muse and lover to many of the most famous 20th century artist and writers, ernest hemingway, langston hughes and james joyce.  she also was an accomplished writer and poet herself.  this lady got around but was also doing good like being an early advocate of fighting racism and fascism.  I found these photos and i just love them!!!  you can tell just with these photos that this woman was definitely a spitfire!  enjoy:)
