The sunglasses you see here are by Laura Biagiotti, I got them at my optometrist's annual summer vintage glasses sale, and I've been told they're older than me (I'm 23.)
The original lenses were plain and clear, but I had this Nicki Minaj-inspired idea to get black lenses in them, prescription of course.
The frames probably cost about $20-$50 & the lenses probably another $80-$100, it's been a few years since I bought them, but the sale is really something else.
I am so lucky to have such a cool pair of glasses, especially ones like these that have such a story. I feel like I own a unique piece of art, or a rare fossil.
Check out Visions of Canada in Windsor, if you're ever in that area. They've got a ton of great stuff & are extremely friendly and helpful. I'm a glasses freak & I've bought many pairs from them. ;)
