WWD Wednesday: DANNIJO Prince Street Pop Up



For months I’ve been following DANNIJO’s instagram and Facebook accounts and have become a big fan of the colorful jewelry designs.  The company was founded by sisters Danielle and Jodie Snyder in 2008. DANNIJO jewelry is hand-made in New York and offers an eclectic range of designs. Danielle and Jodie’s styles combined create such a unique mix. Their sophisticated bib statement necklaces remain a strong theme in their collection.  





Tomorrow the duo will debut their pop up shop at 27 Prince Street in the NoLita neighborhood of Manhattan.   The store will remain open through December.  

With supporters like Leandra Medine, Beyonce, Rihanna, and Natalie Portman, the store is a must-see!

The Weekender November 9-11

       


Museum of Modern Art (MoMA)
Interested in art? The MoMA is now showing "Starry Night" from Vincent Van Gogh and "The Scream" by Edvard Munch, which are two very famous paintings that even those who aren't as interested in art know about. I happened to go when we had the week off and they we're fantastic! The MoMA has photography, the impressionist area, and of course, all modern sculptures and paintings, along with so much more. As a SUNY student, we get free admission, but prices for regular students are $14 and regular admission is $25. The MoMA's address is 11W 53rd Street, between 5th and 6th Ave.
