Don't worry -- I didn't see any shots where Emma's Mysteries Were Revealed to French Photographers. She's quick with the reflexes there. Before we discuss her: Doesn't Parker Posey look like Emma's long-suffering and wacky governess from 1972? It makes me laugh. She's practically in costume as Amelia Bedelia.

Which bring me to my next point, which is that I feel like Emma -- although she looks adorable and I LOVE HER SHOES -- looks a little Cocktail Hour in this, and she could have possible dialed it down to Adorable Day Dress. Right?

Parker looks...amazing. This is INSANE and HILARIOUS and actually also kind of awesome and great. I salute her. And Emma, to me, also looks lovely. Simple, streamlined. Pretty. Missing a turban, but what can you do?

The back is lovely, too. Elegant.

I like to think that Emma here is like, "TEACH ME YOUR WISDOM," and Parker is like, "have you heard of a woman named Queen Maxima? Let's start there."
