Frida Kahlo suffered lifelong health problems, many caused by a traffic accident she survived as a teenager. Recovering from her injuries isolated her from other people, and this isolation influenced her works, many of which are self-portraits of one sort or another. Kahlo suggested, "I paint myself because I am so often alone and because I am the subject I know best." In other words she liked to take amazing and magic selfies.
As an artist I find her hypnotic, as a woman I find her a hero and a style icon, either way a beautiful inspiration. She loved life, she was fearless and she lived with passion.
I know that some of you will ask why would someone love to have a furry uni-brow and a mustache, well this facial hairs are a symbol of acceptance and being true to yourself and live a life without lurking beneath the filters of social media. I think this is the answer and I had to mention this because I saw people making fun of this matter without understanding the symbolism behind it.
I tried my very best to implement all Frida Kahlo's elements in my look, the way she was wearing her hear, the accessories, the colors she loved and even the facial hair.
I wanted to look like her and I hope I have not done a bad job at it.
