I went out with a bunch of L.A.-based bloggers and I am a little tipsy. I meant to name these new earrings tonight but now I can’t come up with anything. What do you think? They’re 18K rose gold with gold-colored pearls. The earrings, not the drunk bloggers.
Interested in these? Email me wbjewelry at hotmail dot com for more info. And don’t forget to shop the sale on my website.

I think I need to be slapped, but only because I missed out on LA Blogger Drink Fest ’08. Hmmm…
Prunella Jones says
Those are great!
How about calling them Jingle Balls?
Ladies Who Lunch says
Lovely, they look like upside down ice cream cones.. 🙂
Deja Pseu says
Ooh, are those the ones you were wearing? I like them!!
Karl-Edwin Guerre says
Nice find!!! I would love to see these on someone, with the complete outfit…of course (smile)
and what ever happened to the Louboutin’s from Jan? they were HOT!!! I’d love to post them on my blog…as long as they’re connected to your feet.
StyleSpy says
They’re great — very Memphis. Call them Ettore.
Karl-Edwin Guerre says

They remind me of 50s clip art. How about “Martini.”
enc says
Hmmmm, I’ll have to think about this one. I didn’t get a chance to look at them up close. I’m not going to be a smart@ss and suggest “Sand Dabs.”
Sunniva says
Oh they’re gorgeous! You’re very talented x
ParisBreakfasts says
“Bozo” because they look like a ball nose…? Maybe they need to be red?
WendyB says
PB, yeah, that would really make them fly off the shelves. I’m sure every woman wants something called Bozo! LOL.
ENC, “sand dabs” are my new favorite words.
La Belette Rouge says
I want going to call them “fish parts”. Wasn’t that the description of the sand dabs as they were passed around? Or how about circles of salami?
Moira says
How about Cyrk — which is the Polish word for Circus. They remind me of something whimsical, fun, yet modern like these mid-century modern Cyrk posters…

I see someone else had the same vibe with Bozo.
Thanks for last night! Come back soon.
Isabel says
Good times, Wendy B.
P.S. The pink/purple boots I discussed weren’t exactly the same as the ones you posted about, but they were pretty similar!
Savvy Mode SG says
oh super stylish and simple.
pretty face says
I don’t know why but the first word that came to my mind was ‘cone’ – probably due to the conical shape. Then it sort of evolved into the word ‘ciccone’. Apparently, this is Madonna’s surname. You like Madonna don’t you?
Plus it sounds sort of like the goddess Circe – daughter of the sun. And the bit at the bottom looks like a sun, doesn’t it?
A sort of morphing of those three words = the made up word ‘circone’.
WendyB says
Very inspiring suggestions, Moira and PF!
MelO says
ooooh la la!!
BEAUTIMOUS!!
I love these! Very pretty. To me, it doesn’t matter WHAT you call them 🙂
A rose by any other name…
lisa says
Oh my, looks like I missed out on a fun LA party while freezing my ass here in Vancity!
The earrings are gorgeous. I can’t think of a good name atm though. 🙂
lisa says
Aahh I almost forgot–off-topic but I tagged you in my blog today! Check out the post for details.
Miss Janey says
Gorgeous.
Sal says
They look vaguely topiary to me … huzzabut “topiary”?
Not terribly glam, as jewelry names go, I s’pose.
G.G. says
I would call them ‘Style Moderne’, the original name for Art Deco, or ‘Streamline Moderne’, one of the late branches of Art Deco. They are gorgeous. If those names seem to stiff, something about them reminds me of Marlene Dietrich 🙂
fashion herald says
drunk LA bloggers, sigh.
maybe you could name them after one of the drunk bloggers?!
KD says
I like the name Circe because of the sun-shape at the bottom and the golden color. Whatever they’re called, I love them!
copperoranges says
you should name them after your favorite pet from your childhood.
KiKi says
they are kind microphone looking in a good way i dont know im not the best at coming up with names
Jen (MahaloFashion) says
A very modern shape!
Deja Pseu says
How about “Cezanne”? They remind me of his more cubist work.
stef m says
Golden globes.
Songy says
Love them. They are bit futuristic. Remind me of the move Gettika. Did I spell that right?
Step Right Up says
They remind me of exclamation marks. How about “Exclaim”?
Duchesse says
They do look like the classic cup and ball toy, so “Bilbouquet”.
ambika says
They look kind of Egyptian to me. I’d be inclined to name them Hatsheput or Isis or something like that.
Prunella Jones says
I’ve got it! Dangleberries!
WendyB says
Prunella, you are a mad genius.
Ambika, I’m leaning towards the Egyptian idea. Hatsheput already has a locket but there are other candidates.
-h of candid cool says
wow!!
