Maassi Plaid
My sister brought me back a Maassi robe back from Kenya a couple of days ago....I started looking up the Maassi tribe on youtube because when Sarah and I saw the marathon running Maassis in Covent Garden looking incredible, and we started talking about the little we knew of them, I became fixated on their ritual of drinking cow's blood....from living cows!!!
I found a video of the ceremony but found it hard to watch so won't post it here, but I found loads of the men doing the dance where they jump great heights from standing. I love everything about the way they look, their hair lots of red robes but in various plaids, which I wasn't expecting....mine is like a classic rockabilly black and red plaid which is perfect for me! It's on my bed at the moment but come winter I think Nathaniel and I will be wrestling for it, it'll look incredible over ANYTHING!!!!
Yes, winter will be all about Maassi plaids!
