Behind the Scenes: Platinum in the Park

August 17, 2016 by WendyB

I spent a pleasant afternoon in New York City’s Riverside Park being interviewed for a video that Platinum Guild International is putting together. We talked about the virtues of platinum, of course (rare, beautiful, true white, doesn’t tarnish, hypoallergenic, durable, makes diamonds look white and brighter).

I was suitably decked out for the occasion in various platinum designs, including these rings.

Lately, if I don't have a Minx manicure, I like very short, buffed nails.

Gorgeous interviewer Monica Elias and her equally lovely team sent me behind-the-scene shots to share. They needed to do B-roll in addition to the interview itself, so here I am trying to show all my rings while looking not-too-pensively into the distance.

I’ve been wearing this David Dalrymple for Patricia Field dress soooo much. Click to see other photos of it.

Some people would say these glasses are silver, but I say they’re platinum.

Got these Cutler and Gross shades last year. Click for a previous photo.

It was so much fun.

Don't fence me in!

We had great weather — the coolest day in quite a while — and we got to admire many cute dogs and surprisingly friendly squirrels. We came very close to getting a squirrel to join me and Monica for this photo op, but it changed its mind at the last minute.

I am OBSESSED with Monica’s pearl-studded shoes.

I’ll let y’all know when the video comes out!
