Happy Thursday! I like the simplicity of this necklace, as well as the option to wear it as tight or as loose around your neck as you like. The fact that it comes in eight colors speaks pretty highly of it, too. It was $195 but is now $156 at Nordstrom. Kendra Scott ‘Harlow’ Frontal Necklace

I kind of love this necklace, but not for >$150!
There’s a rumor that my firm’s annual outing this year (scheduled later this month) will be to a local zoo. I’m still pumping. The annual outing is typically an all-day affair. Any advice on where to pump at a zoo? (Bring my battery pack and stand in a restroom?)
mascot says
Call the zoo and see if they have any sort of accommodation. Zoos are family places so I wouldn’t be surprised if they have some space in the first aid station or elsewhere that is a mothers room. Also, will you have a car/ is there somewhere to go nearby and will the zoo let you do re-entry?
JJ says
Yup. If the zoo is anything like Disney, they’ll have very large and accommodating family rooms. Side note: I was so impressed by the family areas at Disney, where I was always able to find a quiet (a/c’d) place to nurse our 4-month old son and that had actual padded diaper changing areas.
(former) preg 3L says
Good idea. (But to answer your question, I don’t have a car.)
Meg Murry says
Can you ask your nanny to bring the baby to the zoo for at least part of the day? Then you can meet up with her and just feed the baby directly. Babies are usually free at most zoos, so you’d just have to buy a ticket for the nanny.
CPA lady says
So, this is just an unsolicited product review– I bought that bellefit corset girdle thing that Kat reviewed a few weeks ago. And I love it. I might be hallucinating or something, which is possible given the sleep deprivation, but I am on my second day of wearing it and I swear my stomach already looks different and better. The girdle does not bother my c-section incision at all, and I really like how it supports my stomach, which feels like a giant empty dough ball right now. I am one week postpartum right now, and have been wearing depends for the bleeding (super glamorous!), and it fits over those just fine. I usually hate anything constricting on my midsection, hate tights, pantyhose, all those things, but for some reason I find this girdle really comfortable. Maybe because it goes up so high? Anyway, thought I’d weigh in.
Tunnel says
Thanks for much for posting your review! I have this product saved in my Amazon cart for the time being based on Kat’s review. I hope you’ll come back and post again a few more weeks in!
Famouscait says
Ditto! I was just re-reading the original post last night and making a plan to purchase. Would love to hear how you still like it in a few weeks.
CPA lady says
Sure thing. I will keep y’all posted.
pockets says
Does anyone else think that huge statement necklaces are somewhat dated by now?
JJ says
Eh, not in Texas (where Kendra Scott first started out and is still worn by every other woman, I think). The J.Crew bubble necklaces aren’t out as much, but I definitely see a lot of statement necklaces every day.
Maggie says
Ditto (Austin).
AEK says
I think so, but I’ve been on the hunt for smaller statement necklaces to add a pop of color, and I am coming up donuts. Everything is still giant, or if smaller, too sparkly.
hoola hoopa says
This. I keep thinking their 15 minutes must be up, but they still seem to be the predominant option.
I do like this one. The neutral color seems modern/new.
CHJ says
Does anyone have recommendations for sandals for toddlers? My guy has started walking in the last month or so and is pretty new to the whole shoe thing. He likes wearing sneakers, but I’d like to get him something that he could wear at the beach and at the pool and wear into the water. Any recs on something that’s easy for walking and would stay on his feet?
Also, how quickly do toddlers outgrow shoes? Should I buy the next size up like I would in shirts, or just get him what fits now?
(former) preg 3L says
Do Crocs come in small enough sizes?
mascot says
Check out the Nike Sunray Protect shoe for amphibious shoes (we’ve found them at rack room and similar discount stores). I’d start with his actual size since he is just getting the hang of walking. The extra room in an upsize could throw him off. I also liked my sons Keens, but they made his feet stink (use foot spray for those). Re: growth, I feel like we get 4-5 months per size, sometimes shorter. My guy is 4 and we don’t usually have more than 3 pairs of shoes in rotation at a time.
hoola hoopa says
+1 to Nike Sunray. We’ve had two pairs, and they are great. Comfortable, lightweight, highly adjustable.
We also had the Payless Infant Sport Sandal and were really happy with it. I don’t normally like their shoes, but it was a diamond in the rough. And at the current sale price, you won’t care when he outgrows them.
I love Natives, but I don’t think they’d be comfortable on chubby-footed new walkers.
Honestly, he could outgrow them tomorrow or in 6-9 months. You just never know. I agree to get them in his current size since he’s a new walker.
Meg Murry says
What about water shoes like these?
http://www.landsend.com/pp/StylePage-440799_AD.html?CM_MERCH=REC-_-FPPP-_-GGT-_-2-_-440799-_-437944
Otherwise, I’d recommend sandals with closed or covered toes – open toes tend to lead to much more stubbing and tripping, in my experience. Lands End had some I’d recommend, but they don’t have them in toddler sizes anymore online.
Anonymous says
We have Keens for my toddler. I think he changes shoe size about once every 6-8 months. For reference, he just turned 3 and wears a 9.5.
ANP says
Our 19-month-old loves his Crocs but he’s a more stable walker — I wouldn’t recommend Crocs for an early walker.
We LOVE Keens, but beware — they stink! I’m all about saving hand-me-downs, but I cannot save Keens. I run them through the washing machine and it helps for, like, a day. But they’re great b/c they protect baby toes and offer a lot of stability.
