As I’ve mentioned before, I am a bit of a fashion spaz.  I love every kind of look and there isn’t really just one particular look that can truly define my style.  It’s like I have multiple fashion personalities…and…together,  I keep those multiple personalities in check.  (man…sometimes I just crack myself/us up.)

They all do try to talk to me: “You should buy that.” – “No, you should not buy that.” – “But you totally need it.” – “Maybe… but not in THAT color.”  It’s maddening! There is, however, one thing that all of my slightly wackadoodle voices can agree upon:  Buy ANYTHING  you possibly can from Pamela Adger at Travelers Market.

Where exactly is Travelers Market?  Well – let me first ask if you have ever attended the yearly International Folk Art Market in Santa Fe? Do you love it?  If so, Travelers Market is kind of a mini version of the International Folk Art Market – but is available to you all year ’round!

Travelers Market is located in Santa Fe on the backside of DeVargas Center. I was told by my Fashionable Friend that I absolutely must go check it out – so I did! That’s where I discovered Pamela Adger and her amazing jewelry.  Pamela is completely in-tune with Mother Nature and has a respect for all cultures – past and present.  All of her pieces reflect this love.

I am forever asked where I purchased my earrings and ring.  Now YOU know! I think Pamela is fab-u-lous.  She’s even written a book All things have a voice.”  (By the way…if you’ve ever wanted to self publish, you could try your hand at that here)

But there’s more. Travelers Market has 45 different dealers of fine tribal & folk art, antiques, books & jewelry.  There are also a variety of shows and events that take place there. The first time I popped in there was an African exhibition on display. The next time I went back, they were cooking Peruvian foods.

You just need to go there and hang out.  I did, and that gorge wooden necklace with the coral and turquoise went home with me as well.

I blame the voices…
