Eyeglasses / Sunglasses Discussion
-
You guys are rockin' some serious lookin' glasses. Though they are too "heavy" for my taste nowadays (well except Geo's Ditas, luckily they are too big for my head, I checked the meas.)
I remember the days when BIG glasses were in fashion, and I also had to have them…Can't do it anymore.
I remember when I got my first "Buddy Holly" glasses in school, it was around 1. May. My english teacher looked at me and said" Injun, now you had your funny moment, back to your normal glasses and start studying." Was she embarrassed when I told her that they were my new real glasses. Nobody had such in around 1980 here, Totally unfashionable, but young teddyboy was proud of them.
These are mine at the moment, kids hate the round ones. I had almost similar pair as the squares, but in grey and metallic orange frame. Lost them last summer, EFF.

I'm crazy about glasses. I have 10 pairs that I rotate through now (as well as 5 pairs of sunglasses) from Moscot, Shuron and other vintage pairs.
I found these today that I can't wear because they are Rx and I have to put in contacts if i wanted to.

you can pick them up for cheap in the sales forum if you want them.
