Sally Mair - Loving life

More flowers.

These are jasmine flowers. It is traditional in Tamil Nadu for women to wear these or roses in their hair. The flowers are individually knotted together to form a dense string then fixed in a loop or string into ladies' hair. They are made fresh daily and are available at street sellers and stalls throughout the state. They smell gorgeous and look amazing against the dark hair.
These were a thank you gift to me from the mother of two of the children I've been seeing in school.
They still look and smell lovely but are not as much of a contrast in my blond hair. They stand out quite well on my bedside mat though.
