Recently I was cleaning out a drawer and realized how many pairs of vintage eyeglasses I have collected.
Wow! I often find them for 50 cents or in the free box. I love the frames and how cool they look. Often they have a nasty prescription glass that I can't even see clearly thru when I put them on. (I wear contacts by the way). When I was in college I picked up a pair of vintage glasses somewhere. They had cool frames. I took the lenses out and wore them out alot - to class, football games, etc. No lenses, just the frames. Weird huh? But I loved how they looked...they gave me a whole new studios persona. The minute I put on a vintage pair of frames I just become a different person!
Call me four eyes, but man oh man, am I styling with these frames!
Happy Tuesday!

I used to wear heart glasses with no lenses, too!
What a great collection-they are each one all you.

This post made me giggle. Love the pics of you in your sweet vintage glasses. I bet some of those are worth a pretty penny now. Great collection!
