Where to find vintage sunglasses?
Trends comes in cycles and maybe we are sensitive to the seasonal changes when it comes to sunglasses. If you feel like buying new ones every summer you probably are. However, we also adore icons who proudly wear the same style season to season though sunglasses is often considered a key player when it comes to expressing ones style. Maybe we all can see ourselves and icons and truly think about what sunglasses we truly like and feel comfortable in year after year? Some of your might already have them, but for those of you who are still seeking something nice to wear, we have a few recommendations on where to look. And while searching for your favourites, take some time to get inspired by the different decades and their icons (like Jane Fonda in the 70s), in that way vintage and second hand hunting becomes much easier.
