Sources report that Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have been house-hunting locally, as Jolie is often in town lobbying on the Hill.
Brangelina in DC? It’s a definite possibility. Sources report that Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have been house-hunting locally, as Jolie is often in town lobbying on the Hill. If they plant roots in, say, Georgetown, here’s the lowdown on where you might spot the secretive lovebirds—along with her kids, Maddox and Zahara. Contemporaria, 3303 Cady’s Alley, NW; 202-338-0193; contemporaria.com. Brad loves modern furniture: ex-wife Jennifer Aniston bemoaned the lack of comfort in their Los Angeles home. He may decorate his new place at this furniture hot spot. Cafe Milano, 3251 Prospect St., NW; 202-333-6138; cafemilanodc.com. Brad and Angelina have been spotted at this see-and-be-seen restaurant. Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum, Independence Ave. and Fourth St., SW; 202-633-1000; nasm.si.edu. Four-year-old Maddox Jolie loves all things aviation, as do his mom and Brad. Angelina took Maddox to this museum in November, and maybe they’ll come back or head out to the museum’s Udvar-Hazy Center near Dulles to look at spaceships and military planes. Urban Chic, 1626 Wisconsin Ave., NW; 202-338-5398; urbanchic-dc.com. This Georgetown boutique sells clothes by some of Angelina’s favorite designers, like Catherine Malandrino. Actress Nicole Kidman has also been spotted at this shop. Yiro, 3236 P St., NW; 202-338-9476; yirostores.com. Angelina and Brad are involved in environmental causes, so they may want to dress the little ones in pesticide- and chemical-free clothing from this kids’ clothes mecca. Austin Grill, 2404 Wisconsin Ave., NW; 202-337-8080; austingrill.com. Brad’s a fan of Tex-Mex cuisine; he could stop by this Glover Park place. 9 Maternity, 12246 Rockville Pike, Rockville; 301-468-2022; 9maternity.com. As Angelina recently announced her pregnancy, she’ll probably need some new threads. Perhaps she’ll head to this hip maternity boutique that sells lines like Naissance on Melrose, Japanese Weekend, and Belly Basics. Jinx Proof Tattoos and Piercing, 3289 M St., NW; 202-337-5469; jinxprooftattoos.com. With more than half a dozen tattoos, including the famous BILLY BOB and dragon image on her upper arm (since removed), Angelina loves her body art. If she wants to get a BRAD tattoo, perhaps she’ll head over to this tattoo parlor.
