Self-described Anglophile Emily Giffin carries all things British. “My keychain comes from Buckingham Palace,” says the bestselling author, 46, whose new novel, All We Ever Wanted, is out Tuesday, June 26. “Just like the queen, I do Essie Ballet Slippers on my nails.”
The mom of three, with businessman Buddy Blaha, shares more with Us.
Taking a Breather
“I’m a bit high-strung, especially when a deadline is looming, and I’ve found that Tata Harper Aromatic Irritability Treatment really calms me.”
Sweet Notes
“The most outlandish thing I carry would probably be stationery of my golden retriever Dolly from Calabash Card Co.”
Shopper Essential
“I carry a Graphic Image tape measure. It’s surprising how much I need it. You know when you’re ordering something and it will say what size it is? It’s good to visually look at it. I use it more often than you think.”

“I’m a big fan of Reese [Witherspoon’s] Draper James. I love her fun, colorful accessories, especially the Stella shades. Perfect for summer.”
Out in the Open
“I use a bright red phone case for my iPhone. I don’t know how people stand to have these neutral phone cases. You can’t even find it in your bag when you open it.”
