Murchie's Balmoral Blend Tea
Murchie's Balmoral Blend Tea
Tea is what Poet Emily Isaacson thrives on; why she even writes verse about it. With seven cups a day on the menu, she has to stock up on this winning variety. Since her early days in Victoria, she has visited Murchie's tea on Government Street and selects their tea.
I’ve lived a thousand years, in league with tea,
I drink in more and more of earth’s light,
with every cup . . .
—Emily Isaacson, Hallmark
Murchie's Library Blend Tea
Murchie's Library Blend Tea
Emily Isaacson can usually be found in a library and that is where she writes best. Consider this blend of tea bags this year as the perfect holiday gift. With your favourite book lover in mind you can purchase a book to dog-ear by the poet here.
Marie Antoinette Cake
Marie Antoinette Cake
At length I remembered the last resort
of a great princess who,
when told that the peasants had no bread,
replied: "Then let them eat brioches."
— Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Confessions
During a natural disaster, poet Emily Isaacson is the voice of reason. Let's all keep calm everyone; there's enough cake to go around.
Kiara Doll Collar Black Velvet Dress

Kiara Doll Collar Black Velvet Dress
by Simple Retro
Hailing from New York, this is the dress her Empress has chosen as a holiday special this year. Poetry is like lace, an old-fashioned art, especially a lace collar, and Emily has been wearing black velvet for Christmas since she was a teenager. Velvet is her special choice for holiday attire, as she is a Sagittarius.
Rose Hip Oil by Leven Rose
Rose Hip Oil by Leven Rose
With five sisters in the family, Emily Isaacson's hallmark is nice porcelain skin. She has been using oil for over 20 years as her mainstay with one of her favourites being Rose Hip Oil. Try this wonder of the cosmetic and botanical world to even your gorgeous complexion.
BC Icewine

Raise a toast to the Empress!
Have a glass of Emily Isaacson's favourite 2015 Estate Grown Riesling this Empress Day. . . it's Organic Icewine from a local BC Winery.
Icewine is a sweet wine in white and red made from grapes that have frozen naturally on the vine. Still frozen while pressed, the grapes yield a concentrated juice that is high in flavour.

This jacket is all about the decadence and luxury of being an Empress! We love this worn as a dress and as a duster, so versatile. Seed and faux pearl beadings elevate this velvet masterpiece, just like poetry--in such a rich and soothing water green.

An airy cotton gown of intricate design like verse hangs in the balance between flowy and fitted, nightie and day dress. Embellished with sweetheart neck, embroidered florals, ruffled short sleeves, and tiered hemline, this garment is the epitome of free-spirited Emily Isaacson. Soft, breezy cotton summons sweet dreams or, for the adventurous Empress, pairs with her favorite accessories to inspire a summery ensemble.
Estee Lauder's Modern Muse
Estee Lauder's Modern Muse
Modern Muse was inspired by the complexity of a modern woman, with the same dynamic contrasts as her life and her personality. Her creative energy and magnetic femininity are captured by its multi-faceted, sparkling floralcy. Her sleek style, strength and sensuality by its sleek woods.
Who is Emily Isaacson? She's confident and independent, soft and strong, feminine yet dynamic. Stylish and original, she inspires everyone she meets—without saying a word.

Siberian Fir by doTERRA
Distilled from a coniferous evergreen tree, Siberian Fir essential oil has a tranquil, stabilizing aroma to survivalists like Emily Isaacson, reminiscent of mountainous forests.
