My brother, our friend Harry, and I went to Moonshine for Sunday brunch some weeks ago and the first thing that came to the table were our glasses of ice water, served in a wide mouth mason jar. I couldn't think of anything else except to find these exact (or very similar) glasses for the apartment. I ate three plates of brunch and came home and ordered these glasses straight away from my favorite vintage jar seller on Etsy, MidwestFinds.
I also got a soap dispenser jar, too. :)
They came in and I was overjoyed with excitement and I immediately told my brother and my boyfriend and all I got was "Wow, you bought jars on Etsy...ok..". They never understand.
Reminds me of a funny story...
I was in the movie theater watching Quantum of Solace and in the last scene, I couldn't focus on ANYTHING except where Olga Kurylenko got her shoes! I have no idea how the movie ended because I really just loved the way her chucks looked with those buckles. I've never seen chucks with buckles. Oh, and were those leather chucks? I HAD TO FIND THEM! During the last scene I focused on nothing but this actresses feet and my brain was sifting through all the stores I thought would sell them and unfortunately this was before I had an iPhone otherwise I would have been googling right then and there in the theater.
I came home and spent about an hour searching for these and finally found them, but they were over $150. And I was in college. And spending that much money on a pair of shoes is never a good idea. Oh god. What do I do? Oh well, "ADD TO CART".
Done.
Then, I wrote about it on my blog.
Yep.
It has almost been a year since I purchased those shoes and I have to say that they are my FAVORITE shoes. I wear them all the time. I love them. Well worth the money.
