THE NOT SO BLONDE TRAVEL

A few nights ago, my friends and I had dinner at Souvlaki, a delicious Greek restaurant in Lower East Side. I tried convincing them to go to my new favorite bar for a night cap, but failed - so hard to get couples to go out for drinks on weekdays!  Fortunately, one other person was down for a drink. He was my friend's friend, I had just met him, but he was good company at dinner and very outgoing, so I figured why not.  We headed to the Wayland: live music, good drinks, cool bartenders ... It was  a good time, until this girl started falling all over him. Not that I was getting jealous or anything, but she was loud and obnoxious, so I gave her the look.  She backed down, and said "Sorry I didn't see that you are with your girl."  In unison, we said "Oh no we just met tonight."  "Oh on Tinder ..."

Us New Yorkers love black. We live black, we breath black: black is our color. But we also love red lipstick, and bold bright accessories are our bff's. What better than a statement necklace or a funky clutch to brighten an all black outfit? So for those of you that are in "need" of bright and beautiful accessories, there are three designers that you have to check out: AMULETTE Creation by Samia Mbarek, TAMARZIZT by Oumaima Tamarzizt and DS by Dorra Sassi. All three are from my native country, so perhaps I am biased, but I don't think so. I truly believe their work is beautiful and that all of us should be all over them before they are huge super stars and we can't afford buying anything from their beautiful collections. I could go on and on about how original their creations are, but pictures are sometimes worth a thousands words. And honestly, I wouldn't even know how to describe their work. I am not a professional jeweler, I am just a professional shop...
