Those are amazing! I would own many more pairs of sunnies if I had the storage space for them. I think I need to install racks on the wall like they have at the eyeglasses stores. Hmm...

I think the whole look is pretty awesome, but those sunglasses definitely take the cake.

Michelle Harper is absolutely fabulous...those are Oliver Goldsmith sunnies from the 60's. She literally has an entourage searching worldwide for equally lust-worthy vintage treasures - I got dizzy upon seeing her Jean Varon rainbow-spectrumed/op-art kimono in Natalie Joo's feature on her.

Btw, I'd adore if you checked out my room post, I tried exhibiting many design elements (your metallic fervor, particularly) in it's design, though it needs to be repainted white immediately! (It was definitely chosen via a childhood whim! Link me, perhaps?

They light up my day. Nothing better than bringing a smile to my face in the morning. The sunglasses are gorgeous, it’s like really having a butterfly on your face. I love a bold piece, but I would be to small to wear them. I’m ABSOLUTELY convinced they are perfect for you. And the combination with the coat, just fabulous

HUMANITYISBEAUTIFUL said...

oh my! you could definitely pull those off :)))

Peta Rudd said...

Sunnies are a bit OTT for me but LOVE the rest of her look. She's gorgeous.

Hey those glasses are awesomeness - especially against her jet black pixie, and luxurious fur. This girl looks like some type of beautiful exotic creature.

I recently went to the Peggy Guggenheim exhibition, and the gallery shop was selling these beautiful designer butterfly sunnies. I think they were an ode to the ones Peggy wore that Karl Lagerfeld gave her. I'm sure you could buy online :) But yeah, go check out old piccies of Peggy in Venice, with her Llapso dogs and outrageous sunglasses. This lady moved through her life with such flair and style. Defintely an icon!
By the way, love your blog - always gives me a big smile :) xo

Sartirical said...

Wow, those are absolutely to die for! What a shame they're vintage and probably impossibly hard to find! Hopefully you manage to come across an even more fabulous pair ;)

The highlight of this post is easily the Gin Blossoms reference in the title. Amazing. That song is officially streaming through my speakers on repeat!

yes very jealous!!

Gisela said...

Artsee sells similar, if not, identical ones that I tried on. There is a store in NYC and one in Miami Beach (I live in Miami Beach and tried them on at that store). The guys who own artsee are super nice - call them and see if the NYC store has them, if not they will ship them from Miami.

Please find them, buy it and wear 'em before Lady Gaga gets her hands on them.

They are Oliver Goldsmith's - they are custom made and they can be ordered via an amazing store in New York called ARTSEE EYEWEAR which is where this pair came from.

Caddy said...

Definitely epic!

P.S. I love how you referenced the Gin Blossoms in the title of this post. Love the 90s!
