$1,125 Across the street from World’s Fair, Me & Ro specializes in small, hip pieces for girls (my best friend once gave me a little skull pendant necklace from the store that remains my favorite piece of jewelry to this day). But they have men’s items too. I asked the salesman to model a large two-skull bracelet on a tan leather band. Though the double leather straps were rugged and manly, the pink-eyed skulls (real rubies) looked tacky and kind of girlie. And the price was too high for something that looked like you bought it on St. Marks Place. 241 Elizabeth St., nr. Prince St.; 917-237-9215. |
