Le Week-End Africain - the Shoe and Dress stall


These two ladies had a wonderfully colourful stall at the Week-End Africain. They were selling Wara shoes, which are handmade by Senegalese artisans in Dakar and Senegal, with French leather and woven waxed cloth of Senegal and created in the context of fair trade. The clothes - the make is Bo Cosa - tunics that can be mixed and matched to create many different looks.

A massive thank you to the incredibly talented photographer Carla Coulson who mentioned Menton Daily Photo and Riviera Dogs on her website yesterday. Carla takes amazing fashion photos of women but has also published several inspirational books with mouthwatering photos, inlcuding Italian Joy, Paris Tango and Chasing a Dream. You inspire me, Carla!

 Ces deux dames tiennent un stand merveilleusement coloré pendant le Week-End Africain. Elles vendent des chaussures Wara, qui sont faites par des artisans Sénégalais à Dakar au Sénégal, avec du cuir de France et du pagne tissé ou tissus Wax du Sénégal, dans la cadre du commerce équitable.
Les vêtements - de la marque  Bo Cosa - des tuniques qui peuvent être mélangées et combinées pour créer de nombreux looks différents.


Un grand merci à la très talentueuse photographe Carla Coulson qui a mentionné Menton Daily Photo et Riviera Dogs sur son site hier. Carla prend d'étonnantes photos de mode féminine, mais elle a également publié plusieurs livres d'inspiration avec photos fabuleux. dont Italian Joy, Paris Tango et Chasing a Dream. Tu m'inspire, Carla!
