Vintage Sunglasses

[Larisa]

I've done a bit of looking around on the internet but I'm having a bit of trouble finding some vintage sunglasses that could have perscription lenses put in(hopefully something between the 1940s -1906s style). I was curious if anyone here might know where I could find some really nice sunglasses? Worse comes to worse I'll have to break down and get contacts again.

I had Rx lenses put into a pair of retro-style frames I picked up at Target! But I hate switching back and forth, so I usually go with contacts and vintage Ray-Bans (cat eye W0959 and Polaroid Cool-Ray 115) which I was lucky enough to find at a thrift store. If you plan on going to Viva, Allyn Scura is there with racks and racks of vintage frames to look through and try on. I find that's key!

I wish I was able to go to Viva. ;3; I would love to be able to try on some of their sunglasses before picking them up, they look so nice. I had never thought about checking thrift stores.

Thanks so much for posting this. I'm in the market for a pair of vintage sunglasses for my trip to Costa Rica :)
