Jewel of the Month: Xenobia Ring

July 7, 2010 by WendyB

While on my way to Washington, D.C., last month for an interview with the hometown paper, I was browsing the vampire section of the airport bookstore when another book jumped out at me. Not literally, of course. It wasn’t an evil zombie book that was trying to kill me.  I just noticed it because the…

Why My Gold Jewelry Is a Total Steal

July 6, 2010 by WendyB

Towards the end of last month, the price of gold hit a new high of over $1,260 an ounce. I was going to explain the economic and political reasons for the increase and examine its implications but I had a vision of y’all searching your Poodle Reader for something more interesting … maybe the blog…

Jewels of the Month: Vamping It Up for True Blood

June 11, 2010 by WendyB

I couldn’t wait for True Blood’s third season to start this Sunday on HBO so I recently spent three days reading eight of the Charlaine Harris books that inspired the show. I downloaded them one at a time on a Kindle and, by the end of the three days, my credit card company was calling…

Sex and the International Cities

June 4, 2010 by WendyB

I love that gorgeous bloggers around the world are taking pictures of Samantha (Kim Cattrall) wearing my Cleopatra earrings on screen during Sex and the City 2! That said, I discourage you from doing this without permission because people are very uptight about movie piracy. If someone thinks you’re recording the whole movie,  your ass…

Gorgeous Clients Looking Gorgeous

June 1, 2010 by WendyB

My post about Sex and the City 2 was such an epic endeavor that I’m too exhausted to write much. Luckily, I have beautiful client photos to share. Gorgeous client/blogger Jill from Stella’s Roar sent this photo of herself lounging poolside in her just-arrived-by-mail silver Cleopatra earrings. You’ve met Jill on this blog before because…

Congratulations, SATC2 Polyvore Contest Winners!

May 24, 2010 by WendyB

Thank you to everyone who entered the Polyvore contest for my Sex and the City 2 earrings. I loved all the entries so much that I cracked under the stress, thought I was on American Idol and developed multiple-personality judging disorder. First, I got hostile like Simon Cowell. Then I got delirious like Paula Abdul….
