Over the past couple of weeks we've picked up a few great pair of vintage eyeglasses for our Etsy Shop, VBVintage! Glasses seem to be very popular these days, even for peeps who don't need them...just as an interesting fashion accessory.
The first pair we found are actually sunglasses. A fun pair of white pearl metal frames with yellow ombre lenses that make EVERYTHING bright and happy when you put them on...perfect for the sunny day we're having here in Virginia Beach. When we found them they were in a SOLARGENICS case, however through lots of internet research we discovered that they are NOT actual Solargenics! Kind of a let down, but they are cool shades that were made in Japan
(Solargenics are from Italy it turns out!)
Next up is a great pair of Geek Chic Eyeglasses by Romco, circa 1960's. These hippster frames are a transulent carmel brown with sweet silver details that are so fun and fashionable for the funky gal at heart! Definatly my favorite from our finds last week...I love them so much I considered keeping them for myself!
And the last pair that we found...well, they're a bit old fashioned but still cute and hip! Sweet antiqued bronzed metal frames with beautiful art deco inspired arms and oval lenses. There's no markings on them, but they have obviousely been around for a few decades at least!
The first two pair of glasses are already listed in our shop! The third pair will be in the shop by tomorrow!!! Check us out and find some great vintage fashions to add to your wardrobe!
Thank you everyone for reading! Have a fun day....
