We've been smitten with Jenny Chung's teensy Hyde Street jewelry store for years. And, sure, we'll miss the old spot, but we can't wait to check out No. 3's new digs on Polk Street. The grand opening soiree on Friday, March 22nd (5pm to 8pm), offers the perfect opportunity. Helping to christen the space: jewelry designer Anna Sheffield, who will be taking over the shop with a selection of gems, one-of-a-kinds, and ceremonial and everyday pieces from her namesake collection; fresh bling from her Bing Bang Atelier collection will also be on hand. "The original store was the perfect jewel box and a wonderful beginning to our venture with Jenny. I am so thrilled she is moving into the new space, and I look forward to spending time there with her and the team," Sheffield says. Already have plans Friday night? No worries—the pop-up runs through Sunday (noon to 4pm). Please RSVP to the party: hello@shopno3.com. // 2354 Polk St. (Russian Hill), shopno3.com

Just days ago, a wave of fresh colors and patterns hit Rothy's website and Fillmore Street brick-and-mortar. Squeals of delight ensued when customers got their hands feet on the sustainable shoe brand's first-ever ikat-inspired patterns. They come in Moroccan Green, Moroccan Rose (Le Point), Moroccan Blue (The Flat) and Moroccan Amber (The Loafer). Mind you, mimicking the ancient dyeing techniques of these beautiful ikat prints was no easy task for the label, which uses distinctive 3-D knitting technology to make its shoes. Clearly, all the hard work paid off...odds are these boho babies won't last long. Hop on it. Prices range from $125-$165. // 2448 Fillmore St. (Pacific Heights), rothys.com
