Vintage Navajo indian photos Originally uploaded by aliciadesign I have a collection of Old Arizona Highways that my Grandma Mirene passed down to me from my Great Grandparents. I love this photo out of the magazine. Look at all the wonderful jewelry, that these Navajo girls are wearing. We need to bring back more jewelry adornment like this. I just love all the silver coin buttons that run the edges of their dresses. I also love that they are wearing large chandlier earrings and dangle earrings. Absolutely wonderful.

Drive Design also identified The Formula S Belt buckle as a 1967 Plymouth Barracuda Emblem. Thank you Drive Design we love that you are happy with your new Hi Octane gear.

I have an old indian bracelet that i bought at an antique store back in High school in Reno, that was the inspiration for these pieces. I love the simplicity of them.
