Wendy Brandes Jewelry has lots of heart-themed jewelry that will make anyone’s Valentine’s Day perfect. If you are one of my beloved blog bitches, or related to one, email me at wbjewelry at hotmail dot com and I will give you a special, bitchy price on any of my heart pieces, including the Diana Necklace and the Cleves Ring in silver, shown below.

Here are the rest of the heart pieces: Diana Ring (silver), Diana Ring (18K yellow gold), Diana Ring (18K rose gold and diamonds), Diana Necklace (18K yellow gold and diamonds), Cleves Ring (18K yellow gold) and the amazing Sophie Twisting Heart Necklace.
To give you an idea of the size of the Diana Ring, here’s gorgeous client/blogger Susanna modeling her silver one.
Susanna always has a nice manicure.
Speaking of shopping, I got an interesting email last night from Neiman Marcus about a new return policy. No more keeping something for six months and then returning it for a full refund!
Click to enlargeI will be really jolted if Zappos.com changes their generous return policy. I love them for giving you a full year to return items, but I’ve often wondered how they managed it from inventory and accounting perspectives.
Oh, and speaking of returns, I don’t take them! I am a small business and I don’t carry enough inventory to allow returns.
Hi there-Yay, I’m all set for Valentines day with my Diana ring, the perfect accessory for a special day!
Hi Wendy,
Those heart models are brilliant and chic.

Me too Wendy.. heck I thought I might get all domestic and cook hubs a home made heart shaped pizza,, but I’m wishing for Jewelry and a foot rub!
*sigh* Love that Cleves ring.
I adore Wendy Brandes Jewelry as much as I hate Valentine’s Day! 😉
My faves are the gold and diamond combos, I’m greedy! Especially that Cleves ring… swoon… xx
That heart ring is GORGEOUS. If I wore any rings at all, I’d buy that one and wear it.
Simple, bold..

I heart you x
That Cleves ring is hot!
Six months seems reasonable (time to get in and out of rehab a few times) but this is not the time to be reducing customer service.
That’s interesting about the change in returns policy. Looks like everyone’s making ‘adjustments’ in this economy.
The Diana ring is stunning. Stunning.
Holy crap that ring is amazing.
Who would ever want to return any of their Wendy Brandes Jewelry? The horror!
The heart is so gorgeous!!! Wow!
Adore the linking swan ring…I think I’ve told you that before though!
zappos gives a year??!!!
30 days is generous enough!!! i dont know why companies go further than that!!
Duchesse, if you don’t have good cash flow, though, belated returns are a real problem. Also people take shameless advantage of return policies. The folks who wear something out and then return it disgust me.
-h, isn’t that nuts? What do you even do with the inventory after a whole year has gone by. Send it to a liquidator? My guess is that they’re going to have to stop doing that. If sales are down, getting surprise returns a year later can really mess you up.
Other peeps, glad you like the jewelry!
A gazillion years ago when I worked at Nordstroms in the training program they told us stories about people coming in to return tires and Nordstrom giving them a refund even thought they have never sold tires. There was another story about a woman coming to the cosmetic counter with two bags. The lady handed one of the bags to the sales person and said she wanted to return it. The sales person asked what she paid for it. The customer told the SA the amount and then realized she had handed the SA bag with her lunch in it. Nordstrom was going to take a return of a lunch. I am SURE they don’t do that anymore.
^^i’ll never forget a woman trying to return the nastiest, oldest Donna Karan catsuit at Nordstrom when I was working there one day – so gross no one wanted to touch it.
I love the size of that Diana Ring, it’s beautiful.
What a lovely ring. I adore heart shape jewel pieces.
Love the rings, such beautiful pieces. Valentines day is not that big in Norway, but I always get flowers and champagne from my man!
the ones with the swans are so lovely
I’m not generally a fan of hearts, but your heart ring is fantastic! Want!
As if anyone would return one of WendyB’s beautiful pieces. NEVAH!
the swang ring is super cute!
Now if I just had a Valentine to send me metal hearts…
Zappos sells their returns in their outlet stores and if you’re lucky to live near one (like me!) you can get some killer deals!!
That’s interesting to know, Ally! Thanks for reporting back on that.
Fuck me, that is terrible about Needless Mark-up!! I pray that Nordstrom doesn’t follow their lead. What’s left of my life will be utterly ruined.
who’s going to return your jewels anyway. 🙂
I hope you’re feeling okay now.
Wow the Cleves ring is super super divine – why am I a student! When I’m at the Oscars I’me wearing only WendyB!
Make Do, I’m going to hold you to that!
That ring is a fave of mine; and it’s much bigger than I would have thought…Should I save up?
hope the hubby sees your post Wendy as I think those pieces rock! id layer them in my gyspy way.
