Flowers in her hair

I remember the first time I used youtube. I believe I listened to one of Goran Bregovic's performances. The music is something I still listen to and am amazed by every day, and yet it wasn't the main thing to catch my attention. The band's backing vocalists surely add some great uniqueness to the orcestra, with their voices as well as with their outfits. Ludmila and Daniela, the two bulgarian roses on stage looks are actually national costumes. While their outfits are intentionally overdone (with a few flowers and belts added), they still resemble most of slavic national costumes, which I believe are going to be a big inspiration the next few seasons or so - but in a very clean form. Less etno, more Lana del Rey you might say. 
This is what I wore to a party a few weeks ago and felt just like when I was around 12 and wore the slovene national costume for an event at school - like a queen. The over the knees and platforms might have contributed to that (I wear them all the time as you can see), but the flowers in my hair..turban :D...like a crown. Let's do that again.
