Swift Thrifting

Five vintage glasses in a lovely shade of aqua? Don't mind if I do.
I scored these pretties on a recent Goodwill Greatwill rummage and I lurrrrve them. 


If I'm ever short on time in a thrift store, my strategy (because you almost always have to have one) is to head straight to the home goods section since it's easier to spot diamonds in the rough when things are lined neatly on a shelf. Clothing requires significantly more time and patience. 

I know what you are thinking. She must have been a waitress in college! Why, yes! Yes I was.
Also, animal print pants for the win!

I'll admit, I considered only buying one. A special glass just for me, sort of like the pimp cup was to lil Jon in 2004. But at one dollar a piece, I couldn't resist all five. I actually stood there in the aisle of Goodwill, imagining myself 15 years into the future setting the dinner table for a family of five. It just didn't seem fair to deny each member of our household their own pimp cup aqua glass. 

So it was settled. They all came home with me the way God intended– as a complete set of five. And all was right in the world.
