There's countless reasons why we celebrate our muse, Frida Kahlo. Today, we pay tribute to her authentic spirit and zeal to overcome life's difficulties. ⠀ ⠀ When Frida was 18, a tragic bus accident left her with severe injuries that confined her to bed for long periods, thus ending her dream of becoming a doctor. Though she suffered debilitating pain for the rest of her life, she poured her resilient heart into her unique ability to paint, a talent that eventually cemented her as an icon to her native Mexico as well as the entire art world.⠀ ⠀ Referring to her challenges, Frida is noted as saying: "At the end of the day, we can endure much more than we think we can." Her grit, grace and determination to thrive, are an awesome example of our ability to flourish even when faced with adversity. This spirit isn't unique to some of us, it's in all of us! ⠀ ⠀ #consuela #consuelastyle #vivaconsuela #consuelabag #tote #totebag #leather #leatherbag #embroidery #embroideredbag #onthego #bossbabe #frida #fridakahlo #inspiration #authenticspirit #authentic #unique #color #illustration #art #goodvibes #fridainspired #heartofgold #mexicanart #liveincolor #maketodayridiculoulsyawesome
