Thank God for emojis, am I right? At this point, I honestly have no idea how I would even possibly accurately describe my feelings in text messages without the sassy little girl in pink and all her expressive gesticulations. I, like everyone, jumped for joy when the impending 250 new emojis were announced in June — despite being confused by the addition of a "man in business suit levitating" and continued lack of a taco or cheese icon. And now, I can ensure that people outside of my phone's contact list understand my enthusiasm for the little guys, since Baublebar just launched a line of emoji necklaces.
This isn't your average, mostly lame assortment of pop culture-inspired merch. The collection, Emoticharms, comes in 12 emoji shapes, including the extremely important cat-with-hearts-for-eyes and all three of the monkeys not seeing, hearing, or speaking any evil. Plus, even if everyone you're friends with rushes out to buy these (which, like, why wouldn't they...?), you still stand a chance of being totally unique, since you can customize your favorite shape with a bunch of different color and metal options. I highly encourage layering more than one, to really get your point across.
Check out a few of the options below — you can snag them all at baublebar.com for $25 a pop. Maybe soon they'll come in one of these many emojis that should have been added to the new extension pack.
