The Week in Review

May 14, 2017 by WendyB

In case you missed it, here’s what was on the blog this week.

  • Monday, May 8: I debuted two new signet pinkie ring styles for feminists as my Jewels of the Month. My timing was fantastic, because four days later, National Jeweler did a little story on the resurgence of signet pinkie rings as a popular style. That story was about another brand’s ring, but still — do I have my ring-clad finger on the pulse of jewelry trends or what?!
  • Tuesday, May 9: I wore a cocktail dress from 1989 with boots from 2013 and pranced around for a photo shoot.
  • Wednesday, May 10: Check me out talking about my passion for slow fashion on YouTube.
  • Thursday, May 11: The Gemological Institute of America‘s post on halo-style engagement rings reminded me of one of my first engagement ring redesigns (maybe even the first!), which was kind of an undercover halo.

On Instagram, I previewed the coming week’s YouTube video about 1980s earrings.

A little this, a little that – these 1980's earrings gave Wendy an Edie Sedgwick vibe. Paired with our #platinum and #diamond safety pin earring, they've got just the right edge. Check out our recent vlog and blog posts to learn more about the 1980's outfit we threw together on a whim. You'll be learning more about these earrings on #YouTube next week, so stay tuned and #subscribe! #edie #vlog #earring #1980s #mod #beplatinum #ilovethe80s #jewelry #fashionjewelry #inspo #piercings #earparty

Speaking of videos, shout out to Platinum Guild International for featuring its interview with me on the Platinum Jewelry website’s homepage.

I wrote about the video last month, but I couldn’t embed it then. Now I can!
