The hunt for the perfect cocktail dress or new outfit for work is never complete until you’ve tied it all together with a killer accessory. (Trust me, truer words have never been spoken). But sometimes it can be hard to dig up the right piece of jewelry from your cluttered collection. Instead of a last minute, frantic trip to the mall, my DC-area readers should check out Lou Lou, a cute accessories boutique with numerous locations across the DMV.
I recently shopped at Lou Lou in Old Town Alexandria and was blown away with their massive selection of reasonably priced jewelry. Seriously, hydrate and have lunch before stopping by — you’ll need the energy to sort through the tables of jewelry!
Exhibit A:
And Exhibit B — so many brightly-colored watches, bauble necklaces and lovely scarves and purses.
I couldn’t resist picking up two new pairs of earrings both priced under $25. One practical, one fun!
Locations:
Numerous! The original Lou Lou boutique is located in Middleburg, VA, but they have 9 DC-area shops including Alexandria, DC, Reston, Bethesda and more opening soon. Click for details.

Like a nervous bride, I almost got cold feet the week leading up to my 10 year high school reunion last year. Don’t get me wrong, I sincerely loved high school — football games, pep rallies, boys!
