: I agree, Tuareg jewelry is great! Since i can't wear shalvar
: khameezhas, or saris and whatnot, i just wear my normal clothes with
: a lot of heavy jewelry, jingly anklets, toe rings, and henna! I do
: have a gorgeous heavy wine red burnouse that a friend of mine made,
: but it's not a good thing to wear for busy gigs, as it gets in the
: way. It's great for traveling, and making an entrance, but i really
: have to take it off if i want to get anything done! Maybe i'll have
: to get a pair of babouches to really set off the look...
