Editorial Review for Pied Nu – by Jessica Mesman
The Scene
Clean, quiet and terrific-smelling, the house that shabby chic built attracts mostly homemakers with disposable incomes. After all, it's not shabby cheap. Since opening its doors in 1995, the Magazine Street shop has been featured in Bazaar, Vogue and Women's Wear Daily. Framed reminders of these nods punctuate the pristine inventory. Upper-crust patrons eavesdrop on employees to find out which Diptyque candle smells the best and which skin care products really work.
The Goods
Lots of pre-aged white furniture, fancy candles and handcrafted linens downstairs; handbags, designer jewelry, shoes and minimalist daywear upstairs. Look for the L'Occitane bath products. They're made with moisturizing shea butter, smell wonderful and won't break the bank--the soaps start at just $7.50. They're a favorite of the staff and make ideal gifts.

I found a great selection of hard to find brands that I haven't seen anywhere else in the south! Their jewelry selection is the best of the best. You can be sure no one else will be wearing the same dress to the Christmas party because they only have a few of each item and no one else in town sells what they do! They also have an interesting selection of home items, all in one place.
Pros: Everything is beautiful
Cons: limited parking

this is must go-to store in new orleans when you are looking for something special. it has hard to find brands, like dosa, megan park, calypso, shabby chic, cathy waterman, irene neuwirth, and renee lewis, to name a few. if you are looking for a piece of jewelry, their jewelry selection is the most stunning of any in new orleans. they have a great selection of cathy waterman. they also sometimes have trunk shows with cathy waterman and irene neuwirth. the clothing is amazing. everyone will be jealously asking you where you got it! they only seem to buy a one or two of each item so you don't have to worry that everyone will have it, but also that means you have to buy it fast. the thing that i can't walk out of the store without buying is the burn candles. they are the best smelling candles that i have ever own. i don't know anyone else in new orleans that carry them and have only seen them in barney's. my favorite is the kaffir lime basil. overall, this is the best store in new orleans. no other store is up to their caliber. they also have a website, piednuneworleans, that features a selection of their products.
Pros: customer service, selection, jewelry
Cons: meter parking!
