Hello! Pleased to make your acquaintance. My name is Sami Rahman, and I am a junior at Temple University, studying journalism, who has developed an interest in fashion and jewelry that I would say has been slowly growing since I was young.
Gems of the Southwest Part One
For many years, I had been collecting Native American jewelry and accessories from antique shops and stores near to my home, but it wasn’t until I finally visited the Southwest for the first time in 2010 that I realized that treasure hunting directly from the source would be the most rewarding. Santa Fe, with its plethora of street vendors, galleries and stores, ranging from consignment shops to custom boutiques, and hosting traditional and contemporary artisans, is the most fertile hunting ground I’ve found for one of my greatest passions- the style of the American Southwest.
