wishes

There are certain things I wish for when it comes to retail.

For example, I wish that Apple would make clothing, because I think it would be both cute and sleek. Kind of like my adorable little MacBook. Sometimes, I think it's so nice looking, I wish I had a MacBook skirt.

Or that J.Crew would make some of their Crew Cuts items for their regular line. Can you really blame me for loving the Glow and Tell look?

One of my wishes has come true with the new clothing line for EmersonMade. I have had a major crush on their merchandise for a while now, and I always thought items like the Sunny Day clutch would translate very nicely into a dress.

And ta da! They have officially launched a clothing line, EM. The line is simple, feminine, and a little bit retro. And, of course, almost everything they have would look adorable with their poppy and dahlia pins too.

a little envy

Sometimes I feel a bit ridiculous because I find myself wishing I could have some of Lily's outfits.

And I've never felt it appropriate to admit that I envy her Crew Cut clad closet until recently. I read that Carol Burnett loved a dress from her youth so much that she had a designer recreate it when she was older.

No, I don't wish I still had the tie dye watermelon sundress (or the crimped hair) from my first grade school picture, but I wouldn't mind owning the navy sailor dress with oversized white buttons.

The most recent Crew Cuts campaign has me itching for some of those outfits. A few of my favorites...
