Hmmm? Laura Brannigan, perhaps?

Hey...... um......

Will somebody buy this for me?

I've always wondered how Stevie's personal things get passed on and end up on ebay or just floating around out there for sale. I know she donates certain things for auction and I know Destiny Galleria is a legitimate source but I often wonder like this necklace for example - how did it end up in the place? Did she give it to a friend after a fight with LB? Why would she get rid of something given to her as a gift? I've always wondered about this. I mean clothes are understandable - I'm sure she has thousands of outfits and hasn't kept them all over the years but how do these things get out there and start circulating? Does she give them to friends who then sell them? Any ideas?

I hope that they either stole this from her or this is fake. I'd hate to think she would give away personal things like that. I would never get rid of things like that, no matter what happened.

Maybe I should buy it and send it back to her.

Actually, I'm pretty sure she has about three outfits, and has kept them over the years...

"Calling Gloriaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!" I just heard that on the radio

.

Anyway, I wonder when the mysterious L.B. gave her this necklace. It doesn't look like a "modern" piece of jewelry and the engraving on the back looks like it was scrawled by a child

.
Also, "Stephanie?" interesting....

Actually she only has three that she has performed in in the last 10 years and she'll never sell those. And lord knows that is truly a shame because I'm sure her SYW outfit would have sold for thousands

That is such a coincidence; I heard that song this morning, too. When I played it from my itunes.

I think the latter might be true. At least that's what I'd guess.

I would label it a fake if not for the fact of who is selling it, and they have a track record of selling legit items. It does look like it could have been made in the late 60's to mid-70's--it's very much in that time period. But why would she part with something if he gave it to her? I mean, I have every piece of jewelry every boyfriend has ever given me. I've never hated a man enough to give back (or give away or sell) the jewelry he gave me! I'd love to know the story behind this piece. I saw it the other day and I've been wondering about it too. Nice to see some Ledgie's taking a few guesses of how and why it ended up on Ebay!

mikeschmike · #12 12-21-2005, 04:23 PM

I bet she owned the necklace at one point, but that engraving was added much much later. She (or any other woman for that matter) would never give this away/sell it if he had engraved it and given it to her. Especially since they're secretly married or whatever it is some of you claim to know.

I'm going to have to disagree with the people who think that just because Lindsey gave Stevie something, she would "never" part with it.

I don't buy it either. I just want to know WHEN he gave it to her, why I'm so obsessed with knowing that piece of information I haven't a clue!

Ever seen Waiting to Exhale? The brilliant way in which Angela Bassett got rid of her husband's belongings, his car especially?

I'm sure it has to be very liberating and I totally understand women who behave like that when they're hurt. Stevie though seems very attached to her things, looking at her houses or wardrobe. I'm not sure everyone in her groups of friends or in the population who got in touch with her baggages felt the same instinct of protection.
