Jewel of the Month: Lori’s Engagement Ring
I make custom engagement rings for all budgets and, as I’ve said before, I prefer the woman to be involved in the design. If the bride-to-be is not personally meeting with me because the man (or woman) who is proposing is trying to maintain some element of surprise, I want him (or her) to come…
Mullet Dresses Are Going Strong
The high/low hemline — aka mullet — is still on trend for fall. This fall-preview Michael Kors dress at Bergdorf Goodman is a beauty. I adore this look, especially when it comes in the form of a ballgown by my designing friend Zang Toi. For less formal mullet inspiration, check out my Huffington Post fashion…
Beauty Shoot With Wendy Brandes Rings

Even Better Than Peeps: Easter-Appropriate Jewelry
The results of the Washington Post’s annual Peeps diorama contest were announced last weekend. The winner was “OccuPeep D.C.” I’ve been obsessed with the Peeps diorama contest for years but have yet to enter. My extra-early New Year’s resolution is to build a Peep diorama for the 2013 contest. Of course, I made the same…
Musings on Music, Reality TV and Thierry Mugler
I like to watch music videos while I’m at the gym. Isn’t that quaint? MTV doesn’t play many music videos these days. I remember when it did. The first video the network aired when it debuted right after midnight on August 1, 1981, was “Video Killed the Radio Star” by The Buggles. The Buggles need…
