Ruth Bader Ginsburg added a touch of glitter to her ensemble on Friday with a pair of sparkling silver heels at the Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg Woman of Leadership Award Ceremony held at The Library of Congress in Washington, D.C.
The 86-year-old Associate Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court presented the Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg Inaugural Woman of Leadership Award to Agnes Gund, an American philanthropist and arts patron, collector of modern and contemporary art, and arts education and social justice advocate.
Nicknamed “Notorious RBG” by Shana Knizhnik, who also co-authored the New York Times bestselling book Notorious R.B.G.: The Life and Times of Ruth Bader Ginsburg (available on Amazon), she styled her sparkly silver heels with black pants, white socks, a long-sleeve printed top, and statement earrings.
Martha Stewart, an American retail businesswoman, joined Ginsburg at the event and shared a photo of Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s outfit on Instagram.
“Last evening was very special and enlightening Justice @ruth.bader.ginsburg Ruth Bader Ginsberg [sic] bestowed the first Woman of Leadership award on Agnes ‘Aggie’ Gund @agnesgund in a formal ceremony in the Library of Congress in Washington,” Stewart wrote.
“It was such a distinct pleasure to be involved in such an illustrious event. Thank you, Julie Offerman, for establishing this distinguished award. And thank you Justice Ginsberg [sic] and Aggie Gund for being the leaders you are!!!!!”
“Yes. All the yes,” CNN’s White House reporter Kate Bennett wrote on Twitter with a series of photos giving a close-up look of the justice’s footwear.
