Throwback Thursday: Vintage Sunglasses


Hello everyone

Just wanted to share this fabulous pair of vintage sunglasses that I picked up for just £3.99. 

My local second hand shop has a vintage section and a couple of weeks ago I spotted these little babies but was a bit strapped for cash so left them sat on the shelf... looking at me...  As soon as I had the cash I ambled back to the shop only to find they had gone!  I was gutted but knew it was completely my fault.  A few days ago I went back to see if any more amazing vintage sunglasses were there and lo and behold- they were back on the shelf!  Clearly they wanted to be owned by me.

They are in pretty good nick apart from a scratch on the left hand lens but I can live with that.  With vintage I always try to imagine the people that have worn them before and I see these on a most glamorous lady shielding her eyes from the sun whilst reading her Vogue magazine in a fitted one piece, on the beach.  I know I romanticize but I don't care!


I had a little look on Ebay at vintage sunglasses and there is a great variety at all price points.  Have a look here

Thanks for reading!
