My Borgia Ring Pops Up on Liv Tyler and People.com

November 5, 2009 by WendyB

Ravishing actress Liv Tyler hosted a party at the Stella McCartney for GapKids pop-up shop in L.A. last night …A  and she wore my gold and diamond Borgia poison ring! If you want to jump up and down and scream, “Oh my God!” right now, feel free.

My, what a fabulous ring you have, Liv!

My, what a fabulous ring you have, Liv!

Liv got her ring at Broken English, the same Santa Monica, Calif., store that recently supplied a Borgia to another gorgeous actress, Hayden Panettiere. The Borgia has quite a history. Thanks to Broken English for passing along this amazing photo and to Liv for beautifying my ring. Y’all have to go vote for Liv as a “hit” on People.com’s StyleWatch poll.

If you want the blinged-out Borgia, holla at Broken English. If that’s a little out of your budget, check out the silver version on my site.

    I like her a lot! Haven’t seen her in anything but I just like that ad campaign she was in and she seems pretty cute and stuff and the fact that she wore your ring only validates my reasoning.

    My captcha (or however you spell it) says GODDESS. That’s you!
