A big thanks to all you blog readers! If you hadn’t been so supportive of this blog, maybe I wouldn’t have continued writing it for over a year. If I hadn’t continued, I wouldn’t have written about designer Christian Francis Roth. If I hadn’t written about Christian, he wouldn’t have contacted me. And if he hadn’t contacted me, I wouldn’t be doing jewelry for his new line.
ChristianFR and WendyB in April Yep, I’m making my first venture into “fashion jewelry” to accessorize Christian’s new clothing line, Francis. Christian wants to give the line some combination of our names. I want to call the line “Sam Waterston’s Eyebrows” but he doesn’t think that is a good idea. What can I say? Not everyone has refined taste like mine.
Some of you may have seen shots of Christian’s new line in WWD yesterday. My rings were shot, but that photo didn’t make it into the paper. Of course not! WWD only covers me when I do something really, REALLY important. Luckily, I brought my own craptastic camera to the shoot on Tuesday, so here’s the news that wasn’t fit to print.
First, we’ve got two models wearing pieces from Christian’s line. That plaid blazer is so mine! You can count on my wearing that soon. The blonde is wearing my rings on her left hand.
Here are a few more photos.

Love this graffiti dress and the model’s bad-schoolgirl vibe

Stay tuned for more jewelry designs, plus price information.
Oh, and one more blog-related fan letter needs to go out to Gnarlitude Jen, who put my skull ring on the Urban Outfitters blog. Thanks, Jen!
UPDATED FEBRUARY 2010 TO ADD: It was fun while it lasted, but all good things must come to an end. Click here for more information. All the jewelry is still available on my website.
I’ll be doggone, but this is some mighty fine news, WendyB, mighty fine. Love each and every ring. And that hat, too.
So, when we call those fancy stores, which jewelry department do we ask for? I’m not being silly, I’ve never been inside any of them, but I figure they’ve got to have more than one kind of jewelry department.
Thanks for enjoying the Red Bull Flugtag photos!
congrats!
wow that’s awesome! I LOVE your rings – they’re the coolest I’ve seen in such a long time.
I loved your Leopard dress also, as you know I do have a soft spot for animal print. ;D
The blazer looks amazing too. Me wantee!
Oh wow, congratulations! Those rings are absolutely badass! Not to mention perfect with that outfit, which suddenly makes me want to dress like a surly, stylish boarding school student.
