Jewels of the Month: Halloween Treats

October 19, 2010 by WendyB

I enlisted what seemed to be friendly neighborhood Peeps to help show off my Halloween-appropriate Jewels of the Month. Click the photos to buy the jewelry. Oh noes!

Quatorze Juillet

July 15, 2010 by WendyB

I also know I spend too much time watching Law & Order reruns because Uncle Sam makes me think…

Jewel of the Month: Vampire Valentine’s Day

February 14, 2010 by WendyB

This winter, I’ve spent a number of insomniac nights watching 3 a.m. and 4 a.m. reruns of Buffy the Vampire Slayer on Logo. After seeing the episodes Double Meat Palace and Dead Things, I complained via Twitter that Buffy was unkind to her Billy Idol-esque, Brit, bad boy vampire lovah, Spike. To my surprise, I…
