Eclectic Love 1: More Sweet Strawberryness

For this week's Eclectic Love, I knew I wanted to feature something strawberry related, and I knew I wanted it to be a necklace, so I turned to Etsy once again in search of the perfect strawberry necklace. I wasn't sure what it looked like, but I knew exactly how it shouldn't look. I was several pages of incredibly cute, but not what I wanted, necklaces when I started giving up hope. Just as I was giving up, I encountered this:


It was only when I saw this one that I realized how the others weren't right: they didn't have that magical strawberry shine. Even though some had the perfect ruby red colour, none of them had captured the light emitting qualities that only strawberries have, which made me all the happier when I found this one. 

Have you ever searched for something not because you knew what you wanted but because you knew what you didn't want?

Love,
Rosie

  8. I always shop with a purpose in mind. Unfortunately, I don't have the patience for that. But I am glad that you were able find what you were looking for!

    BTW - I know how frustrating a kit lens can be, but there are some good lenses out there that are reasonably priced. What kind of camera do you have?? I might be able to suggest some good ones for you!

  9. Oh, how gorgeous of you to say so! That's a nice comparison.

    And btw, you remind me of that piece of watermelon that waits for me in the fridge... ;)

    And I just realised that strawberries are composed of the same colour, too, hihi.
