Moria Chappell, during a recent performance in Cuernavaca, Mexico. :)

To me, this is the epitome of what bellydance should look like. ^_^  She looks like the quintessential bellydancer; passionate, fiery, a little dark, a little mysterious, very feminine, exotic, eclectic, otherworldly and strong. ^_^  It makes you imagine other realms, other times, enchanted places, enchanted people, epic sagas, primal wonders and fantasies beyond imagination..!  *beams*  LOVE her style!!! 

(And it turns out, after visiting her site I discovered that other pics I’ve adored -which weren’t labeled-turned out to be her as well. :))  I spent a month years ago in Cuernavaca learning Spanish and ended up simply adoring that city & its people.  Wish I’d been down there for a visit to see this! XD
