Look very, very closely at this picture of gorgeous singer/songwriter Suzanne Vega. She’s wearing my ruby Lotus Flower Necklace. I swear! It’s at the bottom of the bunch of little charms she’s wearing.
Suzanne was performing in Brooklyn last week. Here she is on stage, wearing my Lotus Flower Necklace. I swear it’s there!
Suzanne attended Barnard College at Columbia University. A neighborhood restaurant was the setting of her hit song, Tom’s Diner (the name of the place is actually Tom’s Restaurant). The same diner went on to appear as Monk’s on Seinfeld.
I went to Columbia College, right across the street from Barnard. I had many late-night plates of French fries at Tom’s.
Check out Suzanne’s website here, and her blog here.

Sharon Rose says

K.Line says
Um, I love Suzanne Vega. I saw her when I was 15 in Cardiff (I was living in Somerset at the time) and I was just listening to Gypsy last night. I think she’s awesome. So it doesn’t surprise me she has your necklace…
McGone says
“Suzanne Vega wears my Lotus Necklace” is definitely on the short list of phrases I will probably never say in my life.
CDP says
Very cool! I like Suzanne Vega, and these are great pictures of her.
KD says
It looks beautiful on her! I know that place. 😉
enc says
I can definitely tell it’s your necklace!
Congratulations, that’s VERY cool!
La Belette Rouge says
I hope she paid full price—those celebrities can be cheeky with wanting the five finger discount.
Really, the necklace is one of my favorites and it looks lovely on her.
Songy says
wonder what time it is where you are… as I happen to be the first one to comment here and you happen to be the first one to comment on mine!
🙂
oh I’m glad I did okay with those pop pants. I was a little worried that I went too crazy with those pants. 🙂
petite and dynamite says
I was at the concert and saw it on her, the ruby shone on stage.. it was gorgeous..
Cakespy says
I used to live on the same block as Tom’s Restaurant and would always kind of hum “do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do” when I walked by. I know, cheesy!
CoutureCarrie says
Fantastic!
I love that diner, too . . .

You are a fan of someone who’s a fan of your jewellery. How weirdly cool is that?
Miss Janey says
As it happens, MIss J has a magnifying glass at her desk. Fortunately, it wasn’t needed. The Lotus necklace looks fabulous, darling.
Rice and Beans Vintage Clothing says

fashion herald says
Definitely the lotus Flower necklace is giving her lots of serenity, because she looks wonderful! I love her voice.
Make Do and Mend says
I’m with songy ref beign able to buy but I think you should phone SV’s PR and ask if she is wearing it – I peered really really hard. The neckalce looked beautiful as does all your jewellery.
styleraven says
Cool!
You just sent me down memory lane. I’ll be thinking of “Luka” for the next hour at least.
la petite fashionista says

Skye says
Congratulations! That is a lovely necklace, but now I am strangely craving french fries…
Oh Lady E says
Aaaaah seeeeez it. Woooooooowza. Sorry about the ridiculous number of vowels in that.
It’s purty. When I get a job, I am going to gift myself something from your line. Yeah.
miss cavendish says
I see it! And I think that that’s a pretty way to wear it, as a group of charms (preferably WendyB charms).
jdbsusanna says
I love that necklace 😀 But I’ve never seen the sidewalk outside Tom’s look that clean!
Sal says
ROCK. I adore that woman. She can do no wrong, if you ask me. And clearly, she has fabulous taste in adornments!
roller coaster teacher says
Yay! Love the Barnard connection.
Prunella Jones says
Oooooo I love that necklace. I need one of those to get that sensitive, poetic, folky, rock girl look. Well, so I can fake that look anyway.
annabananna says
she knows what’s good! 🙂 congrats, dear wendy!
The Lady Who Doesn't Lunch: says
I’m a big fan of both of you.

Micgar says
Hey what’s the deal with Wendy Brandes having photos of our hangout on her blog?
pistols at dawn says
That “left of center” is a hell of a tune, which makes me wonder why I never picked up an album of hers. Probably because she wasn’t in the Dead Milkmen, and my childhood was already devoted to them.
Teal Chic says
Congrats! The necklace is gorgeous! Oh and the restaurant…how I miss those days!!!
yoncto says
no way! columbia? you know the cathedral of st john the divine? i go to school at the school there! i also eat at tom’s all the time… oh and the necklace is lovely. i seriously wish i could afford a piece of your jewelry! it’s definitely worth the price, though =D
