coming around

as a little follow up to yesterday’s post about vintage inspired swimwear, i thought i’d share some of the images i’ve been collecting over the past several months of the perfect round sunnies. once again, the sun refuses to come out and play, so i’ve had to seek refuge indoors, in front of the computer screen waiting for summer and planning out all the outfits i’d wear if the weather was warm and sunny. sounds like someone needs a vacation!

  1. I've been wanting round sunglasses too! Let me know when you find the perfect pair. These are amazing photos.

  2. I think I'm jaded b/c I can only think of John Lennon when I see these!! I like the white-rimmed ones and tortoise-shell ones though…

  3. Fabulous photos. I've been looking for the perfect round sunglasses, and am really wanting the ones by Karen Walker

  4. I've noticed the round glasses trend too. I would chance to say gaga brought it back. either way, I myself wouldn't wear it (I'm still into oversized lenses) but I think it's enchanting.

  5. I want round sunnies! However I think I have too round of a face for them – maybe that just means they'd have to be bigger? hmmm

    KeepItFvncy,
    M.E.

  6. My face is so round that if I wore round glasses too I'd cause some horrible chain reaction eventually ending in the world's implosion. But the coat in that picture from lulila is gorgeous! It really makes that plain outfit something special.

  7. wow, I love the bottom most right picture– yet again reminding me I need a gray cardigan! I love that her look is absolutely grandma and yet kinda scandalous. Also given my features there is no way I could pull off round sunglasses if they were any smaller than hers.

  8. I think I always look odd in sunglasses I really wanted a pair of these very John Lennon! Maybe I will give them a go, this post has made me want them even more! xx

  9. I love the look of round sunglasses, but I'm not sure if they suit my face shape. I'd love to see you try them, Erin! xx
