Winter Wonderland Vintage Collection :: Sneak Peek

These unique vintage dresses are coming to BOHOPAGE Etsy shop soon - here's a sneak peek for you! I set up a little "snowy" wonderland on our front porch and modeled all these pieces.


This is where I take almost all the clothing photos for BOHOPAGE. The side table with phone books on it is my photographer, Mr Shorty.













The blue white princess dress comes with matching bloomers :D I can't pick any favorites from the dresses (and the one sleeveless lace top, and the purple nightie), I love them all!! I love our new lanterns too. That's the extent of our Christmas decoration - some candles and lanterns.

OHHH I have to tell you, I got two packages yesterday, one from Spain and other from Finland - from my sister, and mom, xmas presents!! I opened only one and am exercising patience with the other. Minna (my sister) sent me a soft faery scarf that's on the. ..snowpile... on the photos, around the lantern. And a  beautiful poem in beautiful Finnish. And fabulous chocolate coconut thingies. Thank you Minna!!

My wish is that some year soon I can be together with my mom and both sisters at Christmas time. Not that any of us celebrates Christmas specifically but it's just naturally always been a time we're together. This year Minna and Kaisu both are in Spain, but separately I think, mom is in Finland, and I'm in Vegas... Our togetherness is of course never limited to physical closeness. ♥

Here's Kaisu peeking and Rebel hanging at Kaisu's RV window in Spain:



Here's Minna and Rebel having breakfast in Montenegro:


Here's a photo mom just sent me of our front porch in Finland. I wouldn't need to do my blanket-fake-snow-show over there!


Sooo what I was saying was. If you like any of the clothes, keep your eye on our Etsy and you can see more photos there soon! :)

I love the clothes, and what a model you make!!!

But the photos of Minna and Rebel... Out of this world.

They sure had a view on their breafast in Montenegro... Just with that photo, my wonderlust became uncontrollable.

Please send Minna lots and lots and lots of greetings from me when you hear of her :)

Kisses,
from Kaisu

Bhakti, your family is so cool :) I know you do web design but what do other members of your family do? Just curious because you are all such wonderful people.

Thanks Kaisu, I will!! <3

Dear Anonymous :)
My mom is an office assistant, she basically keeps everything organized and sane at this importing company she works for. Minna is a photographer but I don't think she's working on the road, she saved up. And dumpsterdives, lol. Our youngest sister Kaisu (not the Kaisu who commented above, she's a whole other Finnish faery lady) is an artist/painter. But she makes her living by playing instruments and singing Hare Krishna mantra and other mantras in the street with her friend, in all the cities and villages they travel to around Europe.

Our dad passed away a few years ago, he was a store manager. And such a soulful, funny, special, wise person. I just had a nice dream where I was with him on our family island in Finland <3

Basically we're all living our dreams I guess! Worry about living your dreams, not money. I've always believed, money is not a problem, in surrender we're all taken care of. Simple living is where it's at.

What do you do? :)

You are so wonderful. Your posts inspire me in a way I cannot put into words. Your wise words about money vs. living your dream hit me directly in the heart, and convinced me that I am on the right track. :) Thank you so much, for your words, pictures, stories, and for sharing your life with all of us who are far away in physical form. :)

Much love,
your friend Stargirl :) (Leah)
