Now i just neet to get my hands onone. ~Nick (look forward to meeting you too!) : Nick, : : What about a djellaba? That's what our male schmoozers (and male : artist when he can be talked into it) wear... : Look forward to meeting you when I come to NYC! : : Anne : : : 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... : : ~Nick : : : : : I usually wear what is comfortable and set it off with Tuareg : : jewelry. : : : My assistant gets a teeny bit more ethnic but not much and she : : wears : : : Tuareg jewelry too. But, after my visit with Anne I have been : : : rethinking my look. She said that Kree and all her henna artists : : : dress up a lot (their tent is decorated a lot too so they fit : right : : : in). Anne says it really sets them apart from other booths and : : : attracts people who just want to see what they are all about. I : am : : : not one for costumes but I do like ethnic stuff. I will have to : : pull : : : out all the pieces of my collection to see how they work together. : : : : : : I have a shalvar kameez and might get a few more..they would be : : : perfect because they have pants and can be worn as you set up and : : work : : : without getting in the way. Here in NYC shalvar kameez can be : : found : : : in abundance. If anyone wants to come to NYC for ethnic clothing : : : shopping is welcome...I will show you around and help you get the : : best : : : bargains. : : : : : : Happy henn
