In partnership with VH1, Alex Woo was proud to have been a part of “VH1 Divas” to benefit the VH1 Save The Music Foundation. Each Diva and presenter received a stunning pair of Alex Woo Bianca earrings as thanks for providing a positive musical role model and voice for women.

“VH1’s Divas” specials raise funds for the VH1 Save The Music Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to restoring instrumental music programs in America’s public schools and to raising awareness of the positive impact that music participation has on students. Since VH1 Save The Music was created in 1997, more than $25 million worth of musical instruments has been donated to 1000 public schools in 80 cities, improving the lives of more than 500,000 children.

For some of us, earrings are like girlfriends.

They’re precious. They’ve seen us through thick and thin. They hear all our dirty secrets.

So it seems only appropriate that jewelry designer Alex Woo has christened her creations with fun girlfriendy names like Roxy, Coco, Chiara, Layla, and Bianca. Made from silver and semiprecious stones (amethyst, citrine, onyx, topaz, peridot, and quartz), her pieces range from mod to romantic to quirky to elegant. Something for every mood and occasion.

Woo studied fine arts and jewelry design at Cornell and Parsons School of Design but really got her start at the knee of her father, a master jeweler. So, though her sensibility is modern and fresh, she brings a wealth of tradition and craftsmanship to her work. Meaning her designs have both cuteness and quality, style and substance.

Just like some of our best friends.
