Happy March and Happy Women’s History Month!
For this post I’m trying something new by featuring some of my favorite women-owned businesses located in the Washington, DC area. This by no means covers all female-run businesses – just the ones I am familiar with and love! I hope this gives DC residents the opportunity to try out new stores and restaurants and allows you to support small, local, and women-owned businesses this month!
Additionally: All photos included in this post feature makeup done by the talented artists at female-owned beauty bar Own Your Wonder, which I’ve linked to below.
Beauty and Fashion:
Own Your Wonder (Makeup, skincare, and makeovers)
Illusions of Georgetown (Haircuts, color, and styling)
Violet Boutique (Women’s fashion)

Food and Drink:

Chaia (Vegetarian tacos)
Drink Company (Creator of the themed Pop Up Bars that I adore)
Buttercream Bakeshop (Delicious treats)
Pizzeria Paradisio (fantastic Pizza)
