A few weeks back I went to a pop-up shop on Broad Avenue + instantly fell in love with Natalie Meagan’s brand The Crybaby Club. I will cry over the most randomest ish, so I knew this was a girl gang that I could be a part of, lol. I chatted with Natalie for a bit about The Crybaby Club + thought she was the most adorable thing ever (her personal style is totally 90s Drew Barrymore meets Winona Ryder); what was initially supposed to be a brand profile turned into one about her creative space bc her apartment/creative space was to die for.
Based in Midtown (Midtown IS Memphis), her space is light-filled and authentically eclectic, with a mix of both vintage and modern furnishings + decor. The fabulousness of the large black slashes that she painted on the gray walls give break up the monotony (they’re cement and could easily err towards dorm-room chic) was not lost.
Her quirkiness spills over into her work area, filled with inspiration to help her with making pieces for The Crybaby Club, a cute lifestyle brand of pins, tees, cards, and other apparel that was created for all of the tender souls in the world.
Extremely affordable (and fun!) her pieces retail from $6-$27.
And the coolest thing about it all? It’s not just a “brand”, it’s a real community. There’s a full Crybaby Girl Gang that contributes to their blog + newsletter from all around the world, so it serves as a safe place to let your “Crybaby” flag fly!
