This Week’s Top Story
Mejuri (mejuri.com), a hip, direct-to-consumer jewelry brand from Toronto, hosts a pop-up shop at 1117 West Armitage Avenue. May 7 through 29. The space will combine a piercing studio with a showroom, and offer plenty of affordable jewelry styles for everyday wear.
We already have our eyes on the gold vermeil and white sapphire zodiac rings ($69) and the solid yellow gold and white sapphire hoops ($185). You could buy one of each for mom — or snag them for yourself. We don’t judge.
