If you have Norwegian blood in you, you most probably know what is a Bunad.
The traditional folk dress of Norway. They differ a bit from one part of Norway to another. They are all beautiful. Here is a photo of a typical bunad from East Telemark, Porsgrund region. This is the region my grandmother Dagmar and her family came from.

I am sure if you have been to a Syttende mai (Norwegian Constitution) parade you have seen this bunad. It is one of the most popular, and I believe most beautiful, of all the different bunads.
The Sons of Norway have a blog where they discuss the bunad, its origins and use today in Norway.
