It's been years since the last time I visited Israel. My family and I went on vacation to Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, and all throughout Israel years ago. What I remember most from our vacation is the beautiful Israeli women and how they dressed. I vowed someday I would look like them.
You must have guessed by now that I am Jewish. Well, mostly Jewish, though being just part Jewish entitles me to Israeli citizenship if I am not mistaken, immigration law is not my forte. I don't know if I will ever live in Israel on a permanent basis but I will surely try to return for another vacation.
So far the only thing that reflects my Jewish heritage is that I wear a Star of David necklace and sometimes a menorah necklace, which is very common among Jews, whether they are Conservative, Orthodox, Hasidic, or like me, not a regular practitioner. The look I developed in the Polyvore set above was, of course, inspired by my trip to Israel. It's very warm there and light summer clothes are very comfortable both at night and during the day. Unfortunately, I had to redo the whole set again, just couldn't find it among my other sets. There must be some real meshuganas at Polyvore because not only was that set missing but I had to post all of the sets I made since my Catwoman set manually. Usually they are posted to my blogs automatically. I've made quite a few sets and I'm a little concerned maybe others are missing.
Well, just a word to the wise you might have different experiences.
This past summer I brought my Polyvore set to life. Buddy and I went to a street fair one weekend, and I decided to give my outfit a test:
The head scarf is hand made in Israel, and although it is beautiful, its beauty did not ease putting it on. I must have spent an hour trying to figure out how to simultaneously get my hair into the scarf and the scarf tied at the same time. The top is from Nastygal, the pants perfect and very inexpensive, my boots? I don't think they have these in Israel but I bought my pair on Aliexpress. I love the look but these huge heels are killer. So why would I think I look like I just stepped off the monorail and onto Herzliya beach? Was it just the head scarf? Nope, really the whole look, right down to the jewelry is not a direct copy but wouldn't be at all out of place anywhere in Israel. I don't know about Old Spice, though. I like it.

After some time at the street fair, which, in Israel, incidentally, are not special events but more of a way of life, Buddy treated me to a wonderful dinner at a terrific restaurant in Berkley. I think it's called Wineeasta or Vine Set or something, must be something else because neither of those names make any sense:
The restaurant is in a renovated garage that had been abandoned long ago. The new owners did a fantastic job redecorating and the food was great, which I expected from a burger three times the price of McDonald's, much better flavor too. It's just another sign of urban renewal here in Detroit. Maybe not that many people can afford to eat out at a restaurant like the one I described, and there weren't that many people there, but it's a start.
I was very grateful to Buddy for splurging so generously, and after dinner we went back to our loft, the rest is a secret. SHHH! Don't tell anyone.
Well, that's it for this post. Check back again because something very special is coming up and I'm sure you won't want to miss it.
Don't forget to like my contest sets on Polyvore, Thanks!!!!
Catchya later.
Ciao.
