misosouper, a shopping blog

I know an elegant woman (the mother of one of my very best friends) whose bird scissors made the most mundane tasks–coupons?  itchy tags?–glamorous.

They may be pricey, but they’re handmade works of art you’ll keep forever.

A bookshelf, with a light that turns off when the book you were reading is laid on top.  Genius, just like the mother of your children.

(Maybe if you’re nice, she’ll hook up your side of the bed for Father’s Day.)

These sweet cups can store stuff, and measure it too.  As in:  “my 3/4 cup of earrings isn’t quite full.  I think I need a new pair to top it off.”

The only thing I love more than jewelry is a container in which to store it.

(That statement is probably the truest, most revealing thing I’ve ever posted on this site.)

For the mama too cool for mom jewels, yet still sentimental enough to keep her kid’s initials close to her heart.

(And while you’re at it, check out all of Ariel Gordon’s gorgeous pieces; she just won ShopStyle’s Emerging Designer contest, and to celebrate, she’s offering 25% off all jewelry with the code SHOPSTYLE.)
