eastern market series | must haves

i wish i could buy all of these eclectic beads from nigeria!

karen (morethanaruby.wordpress.com) scored this amazing black bejeweled belt for $10.

meanwhile, a hop, skip, and a jump over to an accessories stand had the both of us in awe over the following cool finds...after the jump!

dc fashion | eastern market series

now that i've been supplanted back in the district, i figured i should explore more sartorial musings in the capital beltway. first stop in our series, a few vendors at dc's eastern market, a haven for lovers of fresh local fruits, veggies, flowers, and handcrafted jewelry and designs. stay tuned!

me: last october in eastern market.

chocolate city

If anyone knows me, they are well aware of the fact that i have a love-hate, mostly hate relationship with Washington D.C. Well today, I experienced a taste of this city's rich history while skimming through a catalogue of photographer Addison Scurlock's iconic photos of the 1920s, 30s, and 40s. Thanks Mr. Scurlock for making the diamond district seem less lackluster, and for quelling (somewhat) my qualms about this stifling city.
