I love my friend Adriana’s style. She always looks so cool without trying, and most of her accessories have a story to be told. Like her gold necklace that says her name in arabic, which was made for her while traveling in Lebanon. And those glasses (which sadly plunged into the cold briny deep moments after this was taken) were purchased at a market in Spain. She travels fearlessly and passionately, and consequently has many tales to share. Even though the glasses met a tragic end, the experience is now just another one to tell: not many people have walked through downtown Newport on a busy Saturday with a homemade boat hook (broom handle, electrical tape, hanger) in an attempt to rescue a beloved pair of 5 euro spectacles!
