Skylar Grey and Wendy Brandes Jewelry on Inked’s Cover

May 21, 2014 by WendyB

Gorgeous singer/songerwriter Skylar Grey is wearing the double-ax necklace I made for her on the cover of an upcoming issue of Inked Magazine!

Notice that Skylar now has a double-ax neck tattoo as well? The axes were part of the logo for her 2013 Don’t Look Down album, hence the design’s importance to her.

I never thought I’d see my work on the cover of a tattoo magazine and I’m loving it. (The other chain Skylar is wearing on the cover happens to be my mother’s rope chain from the 1980s, loaned for the occasion.) My necklace can also be seen in a campaign Skylar has done for Sicky Eyewear sunglasses.  You can see photos by Nadav Benjamin here. The one below is my favorite because it’s (a) a great shot of the necklace and (b) I think I need those aviator shades.

Here’s some behind-the-scenes video from the shoot.

I’ve also spotted the necklace on Skylar in a video and an interview. I’m happy that she wears it so often.

    This is bad ass all around. Love the jewelry and Skylar’s awesome ink (especially as someone who is pretty tattooed herself).

    PS. my anti-spam word was Cleves – kind of fitting!

        You’d probably approve! Especially because one of them is a jeweled dagger and I also have a gold filigree cross. I have permanent fabulous jewelry!

        Ooh, I love the idea of a jeweled dagger!

    Yay, I’ll email you a pic. If you ever make a dagger necklace or similar charm I’ll be your first customer.

      You should just tell me when you’re ready for it and then I’ll make it 😀

    You KNOW you’ve made it when you’re on the cover of a magazine!! Well okay…maybe it’s not quite “you;” but your jewellery is there, and that’s gotta count for something!! Congratulations, dear Wendy!! ;D
