as everyone is prepping for the beach [or pool], i'm still in search for the cutest swim suit and a great pair of sunglasses. when i go through people's profiles i noticed that they have the most adorable, vintage-y, oversize sunglasses, but i can never seem to find them in any store i step into. so my question is: where in the world do you guys get such cute sunglasses? because i'm desperately searching for a great pair, and i'm failing miserably. so please help!

Chanel has a new line out. Almost all of their glasses are huge. I bought my mom a pair for about 150. Check out Sunglass Hut.

Are you inquiring about real vintage sunglasses or vintage styled sunglasses? Anyway there's this great store called Val Surf. Lot's to choose from. You can find the nearest one at their site. http://www.valsurf.com

I got mine from American Eagle awhile ago. I kind of think the trend is overdone now. At least here it is.

Those sunglasses that you are craving for are called the Jackie-O glasses. Was famous after Jackie wore the glasses and that's why it is called after her. Search on ebay. You would get really cute ones! And the authentic vintage ones!
