Jane Austen TOMS

My sweet friend Brooke is one of the most talented artists I know (check out her work here). The girl loves painting and everyone at Crave loves giving her their TOMS shoes to spiff up. I asked Brooke if she'd paint mine, and here they are! She included the first line from Pride and Prejudice, which is one of my favorite books. It's also one of the most famous first lines of any novel, ever..."It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single man, in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife." Kind of a funny line for me to ask to be put on a pair of shoes, but I just love the nod to Jane, and they turned out great!
