No, I really did.
Look at that guy! Tell me you don't kind of want to own him, too.
But then I realized that if I bought him, he'd have to live under our dining room table for the next month or two, and while a stone turtle sitting under our dining room table isn't a style choice that I'd sneeze at...
So if you're still looking for something, I'm going to go ahead and recommend the jewelry department at Off 5th. It is so good.
And anyway, it's sort of impossible to have a bad shopping trip when you go to an outlet mall; there's just so much variety that you're guaranteed to find something you love. Or something someone else will love.
Pictured above is the necklace that I picked up for my mother-in-law on my trip to the Tanger Outlets in Deer Park a few weeks ago, and which I'll be giving to her when I see her next weekend (she loves all things aqua, silver, and super-long).
Q. Hey Jordan! I'm meeting my niece for the first time this summer, when she will be about six months old. I'd like to give her something really special. I think your son is almost the same age...does he have something he really loves?
Thank you!
Maria
A. This is a really fun age, because babies are just starting to actually engage in the world around them. My son is particularly into toys with flashing lights, bright colors, music, the whole nine yards...but also, you know, freaks out over his feet, so I think it doesn't take much to please them right now.
I found out about Nadeau from RG reader Theresa, who sent me a Daily Candy write-up on the place, and stopped into their NYC location yesterday afternoon to film a segment (and to pick up the most amazing dining room table ever, which I will show to you once I actually have it in my possession - I had to store it for the time being, since it doesn't come close to fitting in our apartment).
What you'll find at Nadeau: a constantly changing selection of solid wood pieces from all over the world for incredibly affordable prices. Basically, you're getting the price point of Ikea without a hint of the mass-produced look. Oh, and you also won't have to spend your Saturday putting your purchase together: all of Nadeau's pieces are sold no-assembly-required.
