Jewels of the Month: Sulky and IDGAF Necklaces
I’m constantly working on new jewelry. I have three 18K gold pieces in the works, as well as one silver ring. I also have wax models made for two other 18K gold pieces and I’ve got ideas for dozens of other designs that I’ll do when I can afford them. Getting started on a new…
SANS FARDS, Sorta, and a Sally Hansen Manicure
Over the past few years, women without makeup — sans fards, as French ELLE puts it — have become worthy of media (and online) celebration. As highlarious gossip blogger Michael K of Dlisted explained in an April post, “It seems like every month some magazine is stripping the coats of lacquer off of the faces…
Topshop Drama Drags On; Letter Rings for Sale
Topshop has announced a new designer collaboration. Not with me, sillies! Instead, the U.K.-based fast-fashion chain struck a deal with 27-year-old British designer J.W. Anderson. Apparently, he’s an up-and-comer, but he’s certainly not a Margiela, Lagerfeld or Versace as far as name recognition goes. The latter three designers/design houses have all worked with H&M, a…
Today’s Must-Have Accessory: 3D Glasses
Gorgeous rapper Gangsta Boo told me I was going to like “Rollin,” the new video by Drumma Boy, featuring B-Hav and Boo herself. When I saw the video was in 3D, I thought, “Boo was right. This is cool. I need to get some 3D glasses so I can appreciate it.” Then, at about 4:24…

One of the definitions of “minimal” is “barely adequate,” so I can’t condone minimalism when it comes to jewelry, especially rings. Rings are my favorite jewels because the wearer can easily look at them the whole day unlike, say, earrings, which require a mirror. The more rings, the merrier. The most rings I’ve worn simultaneously…
Love Letters: On My Nails and in the Sand
My latest Sally Hansen Salon Effects Nail Polish Strips design — applied by celebrity manicurist Tracylee Percival — is called “Love Letter.” In this photo, I’m wearing it with my Hathor swivel-ring design, turquoise side up. The turquoise center of the ring flips over to reveal carnelian on the other side. Two rings in one!…
Beauty Shoot With Wendy Brandes Rings
Celebrity manicurist Tracylee Percival did a beauty shoot with fabulous photographer Anthony Friend, and a couple of my rings participated. I’m crazy about this photo of the model wearing my Clemence (18K gold with black spinel) and Nuit (sterling silver with 33-carat blue topaz) rings. The Clemence ring is available exclusively at Max & Chloe….
Beyonce Wins the 2012 Met Gala
My invitation to the Costume Institute Gala at the Metropolitan Museum of Art must have gotten lost in the mail — AGAIN! — and, as a result, I’m sitting at home tonight in the XXL “I Heart New York” t-shirt that I bought at JFK one fiendishly hot July day when my plane was delayed…
