THE POWER OF PERMISSION 🔥 She didn’t set out to disrupt an industry—she followed a spark. When Vickie Riggs picked up a jeweler’s torch for the first time, it wasn’t about building a brand. It was about listening to that quiet, instinctual “yes.” The result? A jewelry house where every piece dares you to be fully seen. In her latest editorial, captured in the warm light of a Brooklyn studio, Riggs teamed up with muse @yaninamak_—a woman who wears confidence like a second skin. Together, they didn’t just create a photoshoot—they captured permission in motion. Because here’s the truth: ✨ Jewelry isn’t about the piece. It’s about the woman who chooses to wear it. The woman who stops asking for approval and starts showing up as she truly is. This is for the woman who leads with intention, who chooses art over excess, and who’s finally ready to say, “I can pull this off. Because I choose to.” This is not just jewelry. This is legacy. This is Vickie Riggs Designs.

Hi loves❤️ Let me introduce myself: My name is Yanina - I make comedy about dating and cultural differences - I moved from Ukraine ➡️ to New York than moved ➡️ to Los Angeles 🌴 - I first went viral in January 2021 – my TikTok video got 1.6M views and I was super excited - I have degrees in Journalism and Business, I also took social media courses – I work as a content creator, creative director and UGC creator – You can find me on IMDb, I did some model work (very briefly) and I did a comedy stand up – The last 3 years were the toughest for me: dating wise, going through depression – so I know it’s not just a myth – as well as financial struggles (where I lost all my 3 incomes within 1 month) and letting go of very close friends. But then I get myself back: through therapy, coaching, by meeting new people who really helped me, trying to open up again and starting making money through what I really love and enjoy. Instagram doesn’t really show “ugly” side of our lives. But we all have that sometimes. It’s not about having the perfect life, it’s about having bad things in life, feeling the pain but CHOOSE to move on❤️ -My followers say that I’m funny, straightforward, relatable, I inspire women to be confident, know their worth and be secure - My coffee order: latte with oat-milk, 2 pumps of lavender, kids temperature – I have native followers here who share the same sense of humor with me and adopted followers – well, no one is going to take your imaginary gold, Chad 😉 (that explains it😉). What’s your name? Where are you from? And thanks for being here. Hugs❤️ This amazing photoshoot happened thanks to 2 very talented women: 📸: @dinara.photos 💄: @makeup.artist.losangeles ❤️
