This holiday season, we wanted to ask each of the Hazel & Rose team members what they had their eye on. But first, we wanted to do a fun exercise: an abridged version of The Proust Questionnaire. 

Emma was our second hire back in summer 2016 (and no, she wasn't only hired because of her name). She is a social media queen who has worked with Target and Hewing Hotel.

Emma is passionate about independent design and an avid local business supporter. We love her dry sense of humor and classic sense of style. And if you're ever wondering what new spot to visit in the Twin Cities, she's the one to ask. 

What is your favorite occupation?

Creating & curating.

When and where were you happiest?

Near the water during summer/swimming.

What is your favorite journey?

Practicing yoga.

Which words or phrases do you most over-use?

Usually a swear word.

If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?

I wish I wouldn't procrastinate, however, I work well under pressure.

What do you consider your greatest achievement?

Changing my career & shifting into marketing.

Emma's current favorites

1. Até o Fim Baroque 14K Pearl Necklace

Pearls are definitely having a moment & this baroque pearl necklace is the perfect statement piece to gift or wear for the holidays. It comes as a silver or gold chain, & I especially love the gold option.

2. Esby Apparel Duffy Jumper (available in Plus Size!)

I love this jumper for its versatility & wearability! Can be worn with the V in front or back, so I love to switch it up, dress it up/wear with heels or dress it down with tennis shoes (like Vejas) to the office.

3. Henné Organics Lip Serum

My lips get so dry in the fall & winter and this serum is perfect if you duffer with winter dryness! Plus the gold rollerball & packaging is so pretty.
