Jessica D’Amico of Lady J: Bringing the Locavore Spirit to Jewelry
Locally sourced goods are everywhere these days; whether it’s food, clothing or jewelry, provenance matters. And it doesn’t get much more local than the beautifully curated Crown Heights shop Lady J+1. Owner Jessica D’Amico opened the store on the northern end of Classon Avenue just over a year ago and has filled the shelves with clothes, accessories and beauty products that are all made nearby. “Everything is local,” D’Amico tells us. “Well, I have two brands that are from the city. But Manhattan still counts as local, right?”
