Sorry to be MIA, I was just recently in NYC for work and of course checking out some great shows and making sure to walk past all my favorite boutiques.  I say 'walking past' because if I could manage to make it past one on my route somewhere, it didn't feel like I was being that bad;)  

While staying in the lower east side, I was a block away from my favorite boutique, Maryam Nassir.  This place is amazing!  I think I actually went through and had to touch everything in that boutique.

One of the best finds was jewelry in particular the pieces by Samma.  I tried on the necklace below, love at first sight.  I wish I could have gotten it, but the funds were pretty dried up at this point.

The craftsmanship was stunning!
