If you're going to an inaugural ball this weekend, kudos to you (and we're super jeals). If not, hang in there — just a few more days to go before all the hype dies down. For those in the former category, you've got the crazy-fun task of choosing statement gems to go with your gown, and, luckily, there's a swanky pop-up shop kicking off tomorrow gauranteed to lending a helping hand.
Head to the Westin Georgetown starting tomorrow for an extended soiree with Purple Aura Jewels, the brainchild of designers (and outright stunners) Cynthia Whiting and Natara Williams. The duo specializes in handmade necklaces, earrings, and bracelets, and the wares are perfect for formal occasions (or for spicing up a vintage tee and jeans). Head over to the online boutique for a preview of what you can scoop starting on TGIF.
When: Tomorrow, January 18, through Monday, January 21, from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Tuesday, January 22, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Where: 2350 M Street NW; 202-429-0100.
